Revolt Motors has launched the RV BlazeX in India at a price of ₹1.15 lakh (ex-showroom). The new vehicle is an upgraded version of the RV1 but with a sportier and more powerful option. With its advanced motor and 3.24 kWh battery similar to the RV1+, the BlazeX hopes to provide an improved riding experience.
Sporty Design with Premium Touches
The RV BlazeX inherits the good looks of the RV1 but introduces some upgrades. The bulbous headlamp, shaped fuel tank, and tastefully crafted side panels provide an aggressive yet refined appearance. Revolt launches this bike in two chic color options—Sterling Silver Black and Eclipse Red Black. Besides, the one-piece seat and strong grab rail provide the rider with comfort and stability.
Advanced Technology for a Smarter Ride
Revolt has filled the RV BlazeX with cutting-edge features to maximize the ride. The six-inch LCD screen provides clear vital information, while connectivity through an app makes it easy. Features like GPS, geofencing, and regenerative braking add to safety and efficiency. Three ride modes are also available to switch between, delivering power output based on needs. A reverse mode also maximizes maneuverability in confined areas.
Impressive Motor for a Thrilling Ride
The BlazeX gets a performance overhaul with a 4.1 kW electric motor that produces 5.49 bhp and 45 Nm of torque. Compared to RV1’s 2.8 kW motor, this enhancement ensures improved acceleration and top speed. The battery pack delivers 150 km of range, marginally less than the RV1, but makes up for it with improved power delivery.
Stable and Reliable Suspension System
Revolt has carried forward the well-balanced suspension configuration of the RV1. Front telescopic forks and twin rear shock absorbers provide a good amount of comfort over bumpy roads. The braking comes in the form of 240 mm disc brakes at both wheels, which provide a good grip during halts. With a seat height of 790 mm and wheelbase of 1350 mm, the BlazeX keeps the ergonomics of the predecessor intact.
Slightly Heavier but More Strong
The BlazeX has a weight of 113 kg, which is 3 kg more than the RV1. But the extra weight ensures improved road grip and stability at faster speeds. The ground clearance is still 180 mm, ensuring that the bike glides over speed breakers and potholes with ease.
Reasonable Prices and Convenient Bookings
Revolt has priced the booking amount at ₹499, and as a result, the BlazeX is more within reach of common people. Delivery will commence from March 1, allowing the early adopters to enjoy the electric two-wheeler earlier. Considering the growing interest in green mobility solutions, the BlazeX might gain immense popularity as an urban commuting option.
How the BlazeX is Different in the EV Market
Relative to other electric bikes, the BlazeX has a complete package. Its competitive pricing, aggressive motor, and premium design ensure it’s a formidable product. Adding the intelligent features and riding modes puts icing on the cake. Having a good brand name like Revolt supporting it, the BlazeX has every potential to upset the Indian electric two-wheeler market.
Final Thoughts: A Worthy Upgrade Over the RV1
Revolt has managed to marry performance, design, and technology in the RV BlazeX. The sportier attitude, innovative features, and enhanced powertrain make it an attractive proposition for EV lovers. With electric mobility picking up steam in India, vehicles such as the BlazeX will become key drivers in the future of green commuting.
