Revolt is planning to launch three products in India, the first of which will hit the market in the month of June.

The bike is likely to be launched by June 2019.

If electric vehicles are the buzzword then Revolt Intellicorp is the manufacturer that’s hogging most of the limelight right now. There were numerous spy pics floating all over the internet but we now have a first look at the design and other details of the Indian startup. If this information is to be believed, we have quite a promising proposition at our hands.  

Firstly, Revolt is planning to launch three products in India, the first of which will hit the market in the month of June. The first product will be 75 per cent localised which will slowly turn into a 100 per cent localised product by the end of FY2020. And while bookings are set to begin in June itself, one will have to wait until the month of September to receive the bike.

According to the report, the motorcycle is likely to bear a 4.5kW motor with a 45A (ampere) controller. The motorcycle is claimed to have an electronically-limited top speed of 85kmph, which could be amped up to 100. Claimed range of 150km is extremely commendable.

Although it could be priced at Rs 1.20 lakh, the end buyer will only have to shell out Rs 95,000 as the FAME II subsidy would chip in for the rest. The amount puts it in the league of petrol-powered 160cc motorcycles like the TVS Apache RTR 160 4V and the Suzuki Gixxer, bikes in one of the most hotly contested segments in Indian motorcycling today.
