No matter where you go in the world, vehicles play a major role in almost every aspect of our lives. Vehicle ownership is seen by most as an essential part of existence in the modern world.
Whether for pleasure or economic necessity, just about all of us will want or need to own a vehicle at some point.
Is it any wonder then that around the world, people have taken their vehicles and made them into works of art? What better way to show your love and appreciation for your vehicle than decorating it with love and care? Here the list of the top 5 customised vehicles from around the world.
1. Custom Rickshaws (India)
The only human-powered vehicles on the list, the custom rickshaws of India prove that just because your vehicle doesn't have an engine, doesn't mean you can't trick it out.
Although their use has largely faded in other parts of the world, rickshaws remain a common form of transportation in many cities in India and Bangladesh.
Used as a cheap way to get around, rickshaws are an integral part of the transportation system. But what makes them great is the art.
Covered in oil paintings that depict everything from movie stars to products to political commentary, they reflect the owner's opinions and feelings while giving other people on the road something very cool to look at.
In the past, elites looked down on the paintings as gauche examples of low-class culture, but recently artists and scholars have started to take them seriously as an art form. All this, and they're environmentally friendly!
