Problem with e-vehicle? Check out the 'Electric Future'

Micromax Co-Founder Rahul Sharma's Revolt Intellicorp and a network of car service centres, Go-Mechanic have announced a services & maintenance partnership to provide diagnosis, service, and repairs for electric vehicle users. The companies are calling it an 'Electric Future' ethos for which GoMechanic will be making major infrastructure renovation at its workshops to accommodate dedicated EV servicing bays.

Micromax Co-Founder Rahul Sharma's Revolt Intellicorp has recently launched the RV400 electric motorcycle in India alongside the RV300. The company claims that it is India's first fully-electric AI-enabled motorcycle. Revolt Intellicorp had started bookings in July where interested people could book the electric bike by paying Rs 1,000 as a token amount. What is interesting is that it is offered as a subscription service and you cannot purchase it outright. Revolt refers to this as a MaaS (Motorcycle as a Service) model, and prices start at Rs 2,999 a month.

Rahul Sharma, Founder, Revolt Intellicorp, said, “As an emerging brand, it is critical for Revolt to give consumers a hassle-free after-sales experience to ensure stickiness and generate word of mouth. We are happy to have found a great partner in GoMechanic in this ambition and we are confident that our customers will enjoy complete peace of mind by owning India’s first AI-enabled motorcycle.”

In the first phase, GoMechanic will extend service infrastructure through its network of workshops across Delhi. A select few of these workshops will also host state-of-the-art battery swapping infrastructure and there will be training by Revolt of its mechanics and technicians for EV diagnosis, service, and repairs.

Announcing the partnership, Amit Bhasin, Co-Founder, GoMechanic, said, “We are thrilled to be the servicing and maintenance partner of India’s first AI-enabled motorcycle maker. And grateful to Revolt team for the belief in GoMechanic model. This partnership is a key element of our ‘Electric Future’ Ethos since we believe EVs will be the norm in the Indian market sooner or later.''
