Launched by green tech firm Envision Energy in collaboration with EARTHDAY.ORG, the car stands as a symbol of sustainability and innovation. The race car has been assembled using discarded electronics such as mobile phones, tablets and laptops.
A first for India, second worldwide
Recover-E is the first vehicle of its kind in India and only the second globally. It highlights the need for environmentally responsible manufacturing practices and aims to raise awareness about India’s growing e-waste crisis.

According to Envision Energy, the car is a movement towards greener solutions. It embodies the belief that sustainability and technology can go hand in hand, pushing for a future where waste is seen as a resource, not a burden.
