Posted on 
New electric vehicle from the Mahindra stable to be priced at a 20 per cent premium over petrol hatchbacks
Expected: January 13, 2013; Price: Rs 4.5 - 5 lakh
We’ve already spotted them doing extensive testing and had a look at the amazing plant where these little economizers will be made. With the launch just round the corner, Mahindra Reva is aiming to price its electric car Reva NXR at a 20% premium of the conventionally-run petrol hatchbacks in India. The company is planning to sell 30,000 units in the next three years, including 15,000 units for exports. M&M has tied up with State Bank of India, power distribution companies like BSES and different malls across leading cities for charging stations and it's also in talks with various states to create such facilities across the country.

If the government believes in India and Indians then this option can be made possible. Remove all auto rikshaws and taxis and subsidize this project as receive carbon credits Between metro and electric transport, India could dramatically change climate regime. But this takes real envisioned leadership, which is non-existent in India.

No way in hell our Govt is going to support this green car. As usual, Govt will side with the other car company (lobby) and we will continue running the IC engines from stone age till our livers are smoked and conked out. My 11 years old 2 stroke engine 2 wheeler still gives me 47kmpl. But after all the BS1,2,...41 natak many of the 4 strokes on the road stil give 25-35kmpl. A 12 year old 1.8l Nissan sentra petrol version in US gives 32miles per gallon (approx 13.6kmpl) and my 4 year old petrol car with a puny 1l engine gives 13kmpl. Someone explain what is efficiency in Govt terms please, looks like i need to do my BE again, this time taught by our netas.. sigh

According a tweet reply from MahindraReva, the launch is indefinitely postponed and pushed to 2013. While they remained tight lipped on the reasons, they said there are several reasons. I believe the new subsidy regime has not been operationalized, without which the new Reva will be simply quite expensive. There also might be a technical issue. I think it is about time Reva came out with an official statement in this matter.
