Indian EV Startup River Raises Nearly 350 Crore Investment!

Bangalore-based EV startup River has raised an investment of 40 million USD (Rs 335 crore) globally in an oversubscribed Series B round (second round of funding). Interestingly, Yamaha Motor Company and UAE automotive giant Al-Futtaim are among the top investors.

With the second round of funding, River has raised a total of 68 million USD (Rs 565 crore) since it was started in March 2021. The manufacturer plans to utilize it to expand its distribution and service network across India and to invest more in research and development for future products.
