Revolt said that it had to close bookings within four days of launching the RV400 electric motorcycle for the first batch. The company says over 90 per cent customers opted for the MyRevolt Plan (MRP) Premium. The company is retailing the RV400 in variants - Base and Premium with a montly payment plan of Rs. 3499 and Rs. 3999 respectively, for 37 months. It is the latter that is feature loaded and has caught the fancy of customers. For the RV400 Premium variant, the electric bike's on-road price works out Rs. 1.48 lakh.

For the price, the Revolt RV400 packs in a lot of tech while also promising a hasslefree ownership experience. The payment plan includes not only the bike's cost, but service cost as well. The company is also offering battery warranty of 8 years/150,000 km, maintenance benefits for 3 years/30,000 km, product warranty of 5 years/75,000 km and insurance of 1 year/company owned, 5 years third party, as part of the introductory benefits. The monthly aims to make the electric motocycle more affordable at a fixed cost, while providing the ownership from the first day itself.

With respect to the mechanicals, the Revolt RV400 uses a 3.24 KWh Lithium Ion battery that generates 72V of power and comes with a maximum range of 150 km on a single charge. The top speed is rated at 85 kmph in the Sport mode. The bike comes with USD forks up front and an adjustable monoshock at the rear, while braking power comes from discs at either end with CBS as standard. The bike has a kerb weight of 108 kg, which makes it quite light. The battery can be fully charged in 4.5 hours, while customers can also purchase a connected helmet in partnership with Google, which allows users to start the bike using voice command.

Deliveries for the RV400 will begin from the four Revolt Hubs in Delhi later this week, while the Pune Hubs will be inaugurated by mid-September for customers to test ride and complete KYC formalities. Bookings for the second batch are now open with deliveries to start from November 2019.

While Norton apparently sold off the engine rights of its 961 engine to China's Jinglang just before the brand went into administration, the deal for the 650 cc engine was finalized way back in 2017 with Chinese giant Zongshen.
