Revolt, Okinawa, Ampere reduce prices by up to Rs 28,000

Revolt, Okinawa and Ampere have revealed revised prices after the recent FAME II subsidy increase.

• The Okinawa iPraise+ now costs Rs 99,708 

• Revolt’s RV 400 now costs around Rs 28,000 less

• Ampere also announces price reductions

A few days ago, a new amendment increased the FAME II (Faster Adoption and Manufacturing of Electric Vehicles in India) subsidy on electric two-wheelers by 50 percent to Rs 15,000 per kWh. This has resulted in significant price reductions of electric two-wheelers. Following the price reductions of Ather 450X and the TVS iQube, more electric two-wheeler companies have announced revised prices.

Commenting on the same, Mr. Jeetender Sharma, Managing Director & Founder, Okinawa Autotech, says, “Lowering the prices of electric scooters in the country will serve as a stepping stone and help persuade more riders to switch from a combustion-engined model to an electric one. We thank the government of India for taking this crucial step.”
