In both the cars REVA is using a new technology called REVive telematics technology 'a feature unique to REVA that addresses ‘range anxiety’ and will act as an invisible reserve fuel tank. If the customer runs out of charge, he/she can telephone or send a SMS message to REVA 24/7 customer support center and remote charge enables the REVA new models to continue driving within a few minutes'


A lead acid battery variant will be made available for India (REVA NXR), which apart from being cheaper will have a reduced top of 80 kmph and a range of 80 kms.

At present in the Indian market REVA is delivering very badly designed mdoels REVAi Standard, REVAi AC, REVAi Classe to Indian customers. Lot of room to improve the design and finishing of the vehicle. Even your fingers can easily go through the gaps of the vechile. Hope REVA will provide the new designs to the Indian market with out any changes.

In Bangalore we can see lot of 'toy car' REVA in the heavy traffic. What ever it is REVA is doing a great job to save the environment and it will save your wallet. Average cost per Km with a REVA is 40 paise in India. 40 paise is equivalent to 0.00822 USD

world capitals of the future

Forbes published a list of 'World capitals of the future'

'The world capitals of tomorrow may largely be not in the Western world' : says Forbes

  1. Bangalore (India)
  2. Mumbai (India)
  3. Hyderabad (India)
  4. Beijing (China)
  5. Shanghai (China)
  6. Dubai (UAE)
  7. Perth (Australia)

Most of the future capitals are from BRIC countries (7 out 12)
BRIC countires are Brazil, Russia, India and China

There are few versions of BRIC countries : BRICK (K for South Korea), BRIMC (M for Mexico) BRICA (GCC Arab countries – Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Kuwait, Bahrain, Oman and the United Arab Emirates) and BRICET (including Eastern Europe and Turkey)

Astrologer comes into my mind after seeing different versions of BRIC
At least one 'BRIC' will comes into reality

'What is BRIC: BRIC or BRICs is an acronym that refers to the fast growing developing economies of Brazil, Russia, India, and China. The acronym was first coined and prominently used by Goldman Sachs in 2001.[1][2] Goldman Sachs argued that, since they are developing rapidly, by 2050 the combined economies of the BRICs could eclipse the combined economies of the current richest countries of the world. The four countries, combined, currently account for more than a quarter of the world's land area and more than 40% of the world's population. ' from wiki
