Yet another Reva-aaah???

GeekSrik · 9th December 2007, 19:07

Hey all,

Was lucky to get this snap (though a bit blurry) of some new variant of reva being tested out. This is perhaps the most horrendous design possible of the reva - that of the original reva at the back, froggy lamps possibly at the front and hold your breath - amby styled roof !!

I am wondering what sort of variant this is and when Maini is planning to get it out, also wondering if this seems like a four seater. now that they have achieved 80-100km range with reva-i, dunno how much this will go.

Been long time saw you active! Nice catch, although seems like it'll find its way to the weird and wacky section soon (the roof doesn't jel with the whole thing).

Why not watermark the image across the car?

toiingg · 9th December 2007, 19:31

Looks... erm.. ugh!!

amtak · 9th December 2007, 19:32

Nice Catch Geek! I have never seen a reva with an Ambassador roof!!!!

condor · 9th December 2007, 19:35

That roof is hopefully just a camouflage. If it isn't, then it is a sure-fire way to burn any chances of success of the new model.

Did you notice the slightly wider rubber ? Or is it as much even on the current version ?

This cannot be a car for gods sake. I hope its some kinda camouflage and they are trying out a new engine or something.

The roof does not gel at all. Its absurd, weird.
Must be a camouflage.

snaronikar · 9th December 2007, 20:27

It is not a car at all...

What are Maini people trying to do? Do they think the cutomers are idiots to buy this type of vehicle

and at what price.

Akshay1234 · 9th December 2007, 20:57

could be an open top and that thing (roof) is just there to cover it up.

ashutoshb · 9th December 2007, 23:14

Those tyres look at least 205/something/14R!

zenx · 10th December 2007, 10:24

Definitely camouflage. Which means theres a much better Reva or something on its way. If the tyres are any indication, it also means its a more ambitious project. Maybe a 250km range, decent 4 seater for 4Lacs ?

Ok, I'm just hoping here...

Looks fugly to me.

This was there at VY too.

RAC · 10th December 2007, 11:34

This car was there at VY and agreed the rear is ugly, but it actually doesn't look so bad from the side profile

srishiva · 10th December 2007, 11:39

Any photos from Vahan yatra ?
Was the roof complete in length. What was the length of the car ?
