Both vehicles have keyless entry and operation, dual charge ports, intelligent digital display and a range of telematics including REVA's exclusive REVive remote emergency charge. REVive addresses 'range anxiety' where a customer low on charge can telephone or SMS REVA's customer support centre. The advanced telematics feature will assess the car's batteries remotely and activate a reserve amount of energy while protecting the battery life. Within minutes, a few extra kilometres of range are made available and the driver can continue home or to a place where the NXR can be charged.
