Revolt Motors has launched its latest product, the all-electric RV BlazeX in India, at Rs 1.15 lakh (ex-showroom). Based on the entry-level RV1 commuter that was introduced a while back, the new BlazeX shares many components with the former. The biggest change on the BlazeX is that it features a more powerful electric motor, powered by the same battery pack as the RV1+. Revolt has stated that bookings for the motorcycle are open, with the amount set at Rs 499, and deliveries to commence from March 1.
