The first retail outlet is situated in Anna Nagar and sprawls over 1600 sq. ft.
Located in Anna Nagar, the new 1600 sq. ft. store is River's first company-owned outlet outside Bengaluru. Unlike the partnership model used in other cities, this Chennai store will be directly managed by River. It will showcase the Indie electric scooter along with related accessories and merchandise.
The Indie electric scooter boasts several notable features, including a 6-inch high-contrast colour display, two USB ports, and a low-speed reverse parking assist. It also offers three riding modes: Eco, Ride, and Rush.

The River Indie electric scooter is powered by a 6.7 kW motor.
Powered by a 6.7 kW mid-mounted motor, the Indie can reach a top speed of 90 kmph and accelerate from 0 to 40 kmph in under 4 seconds. Its fixed lithium-ion battery pack, with a capacity of 4 kWh, provides a real-world range of up to 120 km in Eco mode, according to River. The Indie also won the 'Scooter of the Year' title at the 2024 car&bike Awards.
Priced at Rs 1.39 lakh (ex-showroom, Chennai), Indie saw a price increase of Rs 13,000 in January 2024 from its first launch price. It was launched in 2023 and was initially only available in Bengaluru; the Indie is now being rolled out to additional major cities.
