MAHINDRA E20 TO LAUNCH,,,







Every time a fuel price hike happens it puts a heavy strain on the common man’s wallet especially when it comes to the entry level small cars where every rupee saved counts. But rising fuel costs are now becoming a major issue and prices of fuel can only rise. So is there any solution? Well some displayed electric vehicles but it remained till that- displays. However there has been one car that has been the only electric car from India for some time now. The Reva was launched way back in 2001 and though it has not been a huge success, those who have it swear by its qualities. However there were some issues that limited the appeal of the Reva namely the space and performance and also to some extent its price.
 There is good news as the Reva NXR is coming this november. Though it will not be called NXR instead it will be called as 'E20'. Test cars have been spotted time and again and which only strengthened the news. The E20 has better space than the earlier Reva and will have space for four. Though the passengers on the E20 will have to be a bit svelte. On the features list there is an air conditioner, power steering and music system and a power outlet. Yet another massive improvement is the looks. Styled by Dilip Chabbria, the E20 looks futuristic and definitely looks a lot better than the Reva. 



In the Reva there were issues regarding its range and performance as both were limited. The E20 changes all that with a better range and the ability to do higher speeds with passengers.The E20 will be powered by an electric motor where the lithium-ion batteries gives the Reva a top speed of about 104kmph and a range of 160 km on a single charge of its batteries. Fully charging it will take 8 hours or you can also do a quick charge for less time but will also give a respectable amount of range. The E20 has three battery options – small, medium and large.
 
Pricing is the key and we hope it will be as competitive as possible with a Rs 5-6 lakh price. So there you go come november you can save our planet and also your wallets.

  1. Electric cars are the new obsession in automotive world but still people are insecure about their future as companies are still unable to make batteries which can give desired high mileage.
