With the rise in the popularity of electric cars, it looks like international brands are trying to enter the Indian market. While we already have several brands like Tata, Ola, Ather, Bajaj, MG, and Mahindra in the market with electric vehicles, international brands are also attempting to benefit from the rapidly growing popularity of EVs. One such brand from France is Ligier. The French car brand seems to be interested in the Indian market, as one of its vehicles was recently spotted testing in India.

The Ligier Myli, a small electric car, was spotted on the back of a trailer in India. The electric car had a board that said “On Test” on the front windshield. Images of the Ligier Myli have been shared by 91Wheels on their website, contributed by one of their readers. The electric car was spotted without any camouflage.

In the images that have gone viral on the internet, the front end of the Ligier Myli can be seen. The board and stickers on the front windshield indicate that the car is being tested by ARAI. It is a cute-looking small car with neo-retro elements. The design might remind you of the Mahindra Reva, which was once available for sale in India.
