Latest Updates

Recent news and announcements

Having spent considerable time with the River Indie Gen 3 on Indian roads, I can confidently say it stands out as a practical and feature-rich electric scooter tailored for urban India. The latest update brings a 4.0 kWh lithium-ion battery, delivering a claimed range of up to 163 km under the Indian Driving Cycle, which is impressive for daily commutes. The mid-mounted 6.7 kW electric motor ensures a top speed of 90 km/h, making it capable for both city and suburban rides. What really sets it apart are the thoughtful upgrades—new tyres for better grip, a refreshed digital instrument cluster with clear range and charging info, and a refined mobile app offering ride analytics and real-time charging updates. Safety is well addressed with features like hill-hold assist, reverse mode, side-stand sensor, and regenerative braking. The scooter’s rugged design, 14-inch alloy wheels, and 55 litres of combined storage—43 litres underseat and 12 litres in the glovebox—make it highly practical. Priced at ₹1.46 lakh (ex-showroom, Bengaluru), it’s positioned as a reliable, value-for-money EV for Indian riders seeking a blend of comfort, convenience, and modern tech.

₹1.46 lakh
October 6, 2025
The River Indie Gen 3 is priced at approximately Rs 1.44 to 1.46 lakh ex-showroom Bengaluru and Delhi, with on-road prices varying slightly depending on location and additional charges. In Bengaluru, the ex-showroom price is quoted at Rs 1.44 lakh, whereas Delhi listings show Rs 1.46 lakh ex-showroom. On-road prices generally hover around Rs 1.60 lakh to Rs 1.65 lakh after factoring in state taxes, insurance, registration, and handling fees. This pricing places the Indie Gen 3 within the premium mid-range category of electric scooters in India. While it commands a higher upfront investment compared to mass-market models, it offers better build quality, range, and features. Given the increasing emphasis on electric mobility and the support from government subsidies in some states, the effective cost of ownership can be competitive over the scooters lifespan. Potential buyers should also consider the brands growing footprint with dedicated dealerships like the new Delhi store, which enhances service and support prospects.
