Reva NXR and NXG are finally here-the world’s most successful electric car becomes a real car.

REVA Electric Car Company (REVA) said a few days ago that the REVA NXR will enter production in 2010. The car will be sold as a 2011 model. It is a 3 door, 4 seater car for city families. While this is the first car which will come to our homes from the Reva stable, a much more promising product is the Reva NXG which goes into production in 2011. NXG is a 2 door hatchback with removable convertible style top and a range of 200 kms.

Here are 5 reasons to buy a Reva:

1. Amazing Range -The average inter city travel of an average driver in Delhi is 39.78 Km. With a range of 200 kms in NXG and 160 km. in NXR, most of the problems related to electric vehicles being short ranged and only useful for neighbourhood shopping can go to sleep once and for all.
2. ReViVe Technology – The REVA support centre assesses information from the car via telematics (information and communication technology) to calculate the amount of reserve energy available for that particular car. Then, within a few minutes the digital display will indicate ‘Revive’ and the ‘distance to empty’ gauge will display the additional amount of range available and the driver can continue their journey. It puts an end to ‘Range anxiety’.
3. Tons of Torque – With a powerful motor and a short burst system which provides extra torque for a short period of time. And a a top speed of 130kms brings it in the league of ‘normal’ cars.
4. No Noise and No Pollution – A car which is clean on your environmental conscious and has no engine noise.
5. Dirt cheap compared to other cars on running and maintenance costs – with a cost of 40 paisa per km, it has one of the lowest running costs. Also, with crude reluctant to come below Rs. 50, it makes more sense to invest in the Reva. One sure shot way to beat inflation. 

And not to mention the cool looks that draw instant admiration and the unique features like remote AC control which allows you to turn it on some time before you enter the car and Integrated communications console.
And to make it an irresistible buy, Reva Company offers an on road service which recharges your car in case you run out of charge and are stranded.
