The one-seater car can travel up to 40kms and has a 100cc engine.

Sudhakar, who owns Sudha Cars museum, said: "It has a 100CC engine. It's a four-wheeler single-seater car. It can comfortably travel up to 40-km. It took us ten days to prepare this model. I hope we can spread awareness and make people understand to stay indoors."

The car is round-shaped and is green in colour, and has 'Sudha car' printed at the back.

This coronavirus-shaped car will be unveiled today. It will go on the roads of Hyderabad to spread awareness and educate the people about the danger of the disease.

"I am known for making wacky cars on various occasions. Earlier I made condom bike to spread awareness on AIDS, helmet car for head safety, cigarette bike to quit the habit. Now I have made corona shaped car," Sudhakar added.
