For all those who knew that an Indian company named Reva Electric Car Company existed: the Reva electric car will have a stunning stable mate by 2011. Take a look at the image. It’s the Reva NXG that broke cover at the Frankfurt Autoshow and the name is an obvious hint at the “next generation” design. It doesn’t require too much of scratch marks on your head to realize who designed this tiny monster. Dilip Chabbria’s lines are all over it. From the colour scheme to the grey inserts, the huge mesh-design plate in the fascia, DC’s trademark swooping lines, and the cab forward stance; NXG is DC all the way.
As for the pricing, it’s steep for a small car. 23,000 euros is not a tiny sum for a tiny car. NXG is claimed to be better than the current car as it offers 125 miles range and 80mph top speed. The looks are tempting, but as the wise man once said, looks can be deceptive too. Whatever the case may be, I just hope the design is maintained till it makes it to production.
