Mechanically, no changes have been made to the Revolt RV 400. It will continue to be powered by a 3kW mid-drive electric motor that draws its charge from a 72V 3.24KWh Lithium-Ion swappable battery pack and transfers the power to the rear wheel via a chain drive. The bike comes with three riding modes – Eco, Normal, and Sport. It is claimed to deliver a maximum riding range of 150km in Eco mode, 100km in Normal mode, and 80km in Sport mode with a top speed of 85km/h. It takes roughly 4.5 hours to charge from 0-100% with a 15V AC charger.
The bike can be operated through the MyRevolt App, which offers connectivity features like keyless start, bike locator, geofencing, ECU updates through OTA, satellite navigation, complete bike diagnostics, battery status, and even an online payment gateway and the option to find the nearest battery-swapping station ('Revolt Switch'), and more. Besides, the RV400 also gets an all-LED lighting system, upside-down forks, a preload-adjustable monoshock, Combined Braking System (CBS), and four artificial exhaust sounds that can be changed through the MyRevolt app.
Pricing of the Revolt RV 400 recently got a huge reduction of up to Rs 28,201 thanks to the revised FAME II incentives scheme. That said, the electric motorcycle is now priced at Rs 90,799 (ex-showroom) in Delhi and Rs 1,06,999 (ex-showroom) in the rest of the cities. While it doesn't have any direct rival in the Indian market, it could be seen as a more affordable alternative to the Kabira KM4000, which is currently priced at Rs 1.36 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi).
