The Reva NXG features the company's
REVive technology |
 |

The Reva NXG is a futuristic electric powered vehicle
produced by the Indian manufacturer Reva.
The NXG (Next Generation) looks a thousand times better
than Reva's first electric vehicle, the G-Wiz, and hopefully
it can help break the stigma of unattractive, function-driven
styling of electric vehicles. Styled by Dilip Chhabria,
the REVA NXG is an M1 category, two-door, two-seater car
with a targa top.
The Reva NXG also features Reva's new REVive technology.
This system acts like an invisible reserve fuel tank and
addresses 'range anxiety'. If a customer runs out of charge,
they can telephone or SMS REVA's customer support centre.
The advanced telematics feature will assess the car's
batteries remotely and activate a reserve amount of energy
while protecting the battery life. Within minutes, a few
extra kilometres of range are made available via the telematics
and the driver can continue home or to a place where the
NXG can be charged.
Due to go on sale in 2011 the Reva NXG has an 80 mph (130
km/h) top speed and a 125 mile (200 km) range. Using the
fast charge, it has an effective range of 250 miles (400
kms) a day. Not ideal for cross-country touring, but absolutely
perfect for cross city commutes and day-to-day driving. |
