Mahindra Reva NXR

Mahindra Reva NXR

Mahindra Unveiled their Reva NXR electric vehicle at Autoexpo Delhi.

The badges of the production version have changed from the large REVA logo on the front grille to the Mahindra logo and the NXR logo with four

leaves is used in the rear. The rest of the vehicle remains unchanged. The NXR uses parts from the Mahindra parts bin to keep costs in check.

Despite this, making the NXR more appealing has made it a little more expensive. The company expects infrastructure support from the

government to source, distribute and charge a range of electric vehicles and subsidy for its EV.

The NXR will be offered with three battery options – small, medium and large – to cater to a variety of driving ranges. There will be two kinds of

batteries – lithium ion and lead acid but Mahindra will focus more on lithium ion variants.

Engineers responsible for the NXR’s development have also worked on the Verito electric vehicle. The conventional engine has been swapped with

a 29KW (39.4bhp) electric motor. The company claims the Verito Electric has a range of 100km on full charge and a top speed of 86kph.
