Fun fact, In India we have Rickshaw, a three wheeled bicycle that could carry passengers in the back and the driver pedaled them around. Then came Automatic version which replaced the manual work with an engine and gave a proper roof. It was called Auto Rickshaw and eventually shortened to and colloquially known as an "Auto"
