Revolt Motors announced today that their latest batch of electric motorcycles is ready for dispatch from company plant
One of the fastest growing electric two wheeler brand in India, Revolt Motors has been struggling to keep up with the demand. Bookings for their electric motorcycles are closed currently, as they have already received enough orders and the company does not want to collect huge booking orders, which will only result in huge waiting period for customers.
Instead, Revolt opens bookings every few weeks, collects enough orders so that they can meet demand for the time being. The last time Revolt electric motorcycle bookings were open, was about 3 weeks ago. The demand was such, that in a matter of 2 hours, the company had to close booking window. In that short window, they collected orders worth Rs 50 crores.
New Batch Ready For Dispatch
There is no update as to when the bookings will re-open. But there is good news for those awaiting delivery of their Revolt e-bike. The latest news from Revolt Electric is that the new batch of e-motorcycles RV300 and RV400 is now ready for dispatch to dealers. Existing dealer network is in cities of Pune, Delhi, Ahmedabad, Hyderabad, Chennai and Mumbai.
Revolt has not release exact number of electric motorcycles which will be delivered under the latest batch. Owners who are awaiting deliver, can check the progress via the new VOLT feature. Revolt launched VOLT feature for buyers who are awaiting delivery. Via this, awaiting buyers can track the progress of their e-bike from booking stage to delivery.
Thanks to rising fuel prices, and updated FAME-II policy, there is a renewed interest in electric vehicles across India. If that was not enough a booster, some state governments are adding even more benefits. For example, Gujarat recently announced added benefits for EV buyers. This has made the Revolt motorcycle buyers avail benefits of upto Rs 68,000 in the state.
