Bookings for the Revolt RV400 electric motorcycle are set to commence once again, and the e-bike will go on sale in select cities across India
Revolt Motors had opened booking of the RV400 electric motorcycle on June 18, following its price revision due to the updated FAME II policy. Within hours, the motorcycle was sold out, which is quite an impressive feat! Now, the manufacturer is reopening bookings for the RV400 today (July 15th).
Revolt RV400 currently has an ex-showroom price of Rs. 90,799 in Delhi (Rs. 1,06,999 in other cities). The e-motorcycle is only available in six cities across India, namely New Delhi, Ahmedabad, Pune, Mumbai, Hyderabad, and Chennai. That said, the manufacturer does have plans to expand its reach in India in the near future.
Powering the motorcycle is a 3 kW electric motor, which comes connected to a 3.24 kWh Li-ion battery pack. There are three riding modes available – Sport, Normal, and Eco – and the motorcycle can deliver a claimed riding range of up to 150 km in Eco mode. It takes around 4.5 hours to charge the battery via a regular wall charger. The manufacturer claims a rated top speed of 80 kmph for the bike, which is decent for a city commuter.
The electric motorcycle comes loaded with features like projector LED headlight, LED DRLs, LED turn indicators, upside-down telescopic front forks, adjustable monoshock rear suspension, and a fully digital instrument cluster. The motorcycle also features swappable batteries, and owners can visit their nearest Revolt Switch Station to swap out depleted batteries for charged ones.
The bike also gets keyless go (with smart key) and push-button start. Revolt RV400 also comes with a host of connected features, like geofencing, vehicle tracking, diagnostics report, battery status, ride statistics, etc. These can be accessed via the MyRevolt smartphone app.
