    Mahindra launches e2o

    Mahindra has officially launched the replacement of the Reva electric car, called the e2o. The e2o was earlier showcased at the Auto Expo as the Reva NX-R. It will be manufactured at Mahindra’s new plant in Bangalore. In its first phase, the e2o will head to showrooms in eight cities across India.

    Under the hood of the Mahindra e2o is an electric motor that is driven by 48-volt lithium-ion batteries capable of powering the car for about 100km on a single charge. It makes 19kW at 3750rpm and 5.4kgm of torque at 3400rpm. The e2o has a top speed of 81kph and a kerb weight of 830kg. It takes five hours to fully charge its batteries.

    Mahindra sees promise in this project and is considering leasing out the batteries which are an expensive component to replace, and has invested Rs 100 crore on the e2o, including the plant.
