Congestion Warning! According to manufacturers, 2010 promises to be 1 year of age for the electric motor individually. With a new kid on the start line for this week: the Indian Reva and NXR. A city "zero emission" scheduled for next July and is distinguished by a particularly surprising telematics device under the hood.

"If you come back I cancel everything" (N. Sarkozy). We know now, some SMS sometimes remain unanswered. No risk of such a misadventure with Reva NXR.

It then validates the trip or tell you the nearest terminal via Google Maps. Director of RAL Holdings, the importer of the brand in India France, Alexandre Chagnaud is proud of its novelty. Especially as its future model will also protect you from the blow of fuel exhaustion. If battery empty, sending an unlock SMS in effect a secret reserve of autonomy. What reach the outlet nearest.

Beyond these "gadgets" that everyone thinks of utility, the Indian girl displays before any performance in accordance with the standards of new electricity transmission: 4 tickets, a range of 160 km, a maximum speed of 104 km / h, B permit approval, the recovery of braking energy and even a solar roof option. In terms of storage, the NXR is equipped with lithium-iron phosphate Japanese technology, but under Chinese license. Globalization does impact cleantech. "According to our estimates, the Reva ensures 97% of annual journeys of a driver. For very long distances, it is wiser to use the train or rent a car powered.
