The future is upon and it is going to be electric and etcetera, etcetera. We all know that the future is electric and you don’t need me to tell you that again. And with so much happening and so many people having so much to say about electric vehicles, there is one company that frankly, not a lot of people knew about until fairly recently. It’s called Revolt Intellicorp and their first product is the RV 400 which is an all-electric motorcycle. It’s got a lot of attention around it and is India’s first production electric motorcycle. It makes a lot of promises but is it a promising product to invest in right now? Well, we got a chance to swing a leg over it and find out.
The first thing that you will notice is the design of the motorcycle and in that department, RV 400 does a great job. The area where you usually expect to see an engine is covered up which gives the motorcycle quite a lot of bulk in terms of appearance, and that combined with the sim headlight gives it a bit of a street fighter look.
Adding to that is the high-rising, well, fuel tank area which we will get to in a bit and the sharply rising tail makes it look sporty.
Amongst the two, it is the red-colour option that really stands out and has nice graphics on the shroud that fades to black. Interestingly, the name of the motorcycle is placed down below which is a nice touch. The 7-spoke alloy wheels are blacked out and are contrasted by the huge belt drive sprocket that has a brushed metal finish and makes for a nice contrast that looks especially good when you see the motorcycle in motion.
Look closer and you’ll notice the Revolt logo and lettering on the headlamp unit itself which has a nice and sporty layout and houses the LED headlamps. The LED treatment goes on to the back as well with sharp-looking LED tail lights which are placed under the well-sized grab rail that pillion riders will surely appreciate.
