River Indie Electric Scooter 

Bangalore-based startup River Electric has officially launched its highly-anticipated electric River Indie. Read the complete article for more updates on the new electric vehicle.

Features

River Indie comes in three colors Blue, yellow, and Red.  The River Indie boasts 14-inch wheels, which are typically found on larger maxi-scooters such as the Yamaha Aerox. This means you can take on rough roads with ease, without sacrificing maneuverability. Built-in crash guards provide an extra layer of protection, while the all-digital instrumentation in the form of a color LCD screen keeps you up-to-date on all your essential metrics.

But it’s the River Indie’s storage capacity that really sets it apart. With a 43-liter under-seat boot and a 12-liter front glovebox, you’ll have plenty of room to stow your belongings. And if that’s not enough, you can add panniers for an additional 40 liters of storage space. Pannier mounts come standard, while the boxes are optional extras. For even more storage, there’s also an optional top box with a 25-liter capacity. Whether you’re commuting to work or running errands around town, the River Indie has you covered.

What’s more, the River Indie comes equipped with extendable footpegs that fold out of the sides of the floorboard. This unique feature provides added comfort and flexibility, whether you’re cruising down the street or tackling a winding road.

Range

And let’s not forget about performance. The mid-mounted motor produces 6.7kW of peak power and sends it to the rear wheel via a belt-drive system. With a top speed of 90kmph, the River Indie is no slouch on the open road. And thanks to its 4kWh fixed battery, it offers a true range of 150 km and a claimed real-world range of 120km. It can be charged up to 100% within 5 hours. That means you can spend less time worrying about charging and more time enjoying the ride.
