Company History
Revolt Motors entered India’s two-wheeler market with a clear premise: make an electric motorcycle that looks and behaves like a familiar petrol commuter, only cheaper to run and simpler to own. The RV300/RV400 platforms put range honesty and everyday durability ahead of headline speed, pairing hub motors with removable battery packs that can be charged at home or swapped at storefronts. From early days the company leaned on app connectivity—geo-fencing, diagnostics, sound profiles—not as gimmicks but as tools to demystify EV ownership for first-time buyers. What differentiated Revolt in dense Indian cities was practical packaging: seat height and ergonomics that fit varied riders, suspension and wheels tolerant of potholes, and a brake/regen tune that felt natural in stop-start traffic. After initial supply and policy hiccups, localization of components and a broader service footprint made the math work for commuters and delivery fleets who count fuel and downtime in rupees per day. Historically, Revolt helped normalize electric motorcycles in India by putting UX, charging convenience, and warranty-backed support ahead of spec-sheet theater—turning curiosity into confident, daily use for thousands of riders.
