The flagship dealership has opened in Kathmandu, with plans to expand to 15 showrooms across major cities within the next few months. Early adopters benefit from a special NPR 10,000 discount on all models, making the RV400 an attractive proposition for those considering a switch to electric mobility.
Competitive Landscape and Market Impact
Revolt Motors’ entry into Nepal comes at a time when electric two-wheelers are gaining traction, but the market is still in its early stages compared to the widespread adoption of electric scooters and four-wheelers. In India, Revolt has already established itself as a pioneer in the electric motorcycle segment, facing limited competition from mainstream brands that focus more on scooters.
The RV400 and its siblings, some co-developed with China’s Super Soco, are well-positioned to capture the growing interest in sustainable transportation in Nepal. The partnership with MV Dugar Group ensures a robust after-sales network and customer support, further boosting consumer confidence.
