Hello from Reva owner

MikeBoxwell · 20th October 2008, 14:06

Hi, my name is Mike. I'm based in the UK and drive a Reva electric car.

Here in the UK, the Reva has been quite a hit in Central London where it is known as the 'G-Wiz'. Thanks to tax benefits for driving an electric car in London, it's become a common sight.

Are there any Reva owners on this forum?

Hi Mike! All the best on your G-wiz, Neat to know that you charge your car when we actually pull into a bunk to refuel.
Enjoy you time here and post in your views and reviews on your car in the drive.
cheers!

Welcome to team-bhp Mike,

How long have you been driving the 'G-Wiz' ?
How is it ?

Can you please post some pics and write a review.
Must be a different feeling to drive an electric and the strange feeling of never going to a fuel station

Hi Mike,

Indeed there are a few reva owners on the forum. Infact i think we have quite a few members from Coventry as well.

Unfortunately the Reva isnt as popular in india as it is in the UK.

Hi Mike
Welcome to the forum. Tell us more about your car and your experiences.
I own a Reva for the last 6 years. I have posted comments on the car in the links shared by Rehaan.

Enjoy your stay here.

Well, the Reva I own is the dc-drive version. It's 2½ years old and one of the very few that isn't in London.

I use it for commuting too and from work - around 13 miles. It works pretty well and does everything I ask of it.

I run the G-Wiz Owner's Club here in the UK. One of the reasons for joining the Team-BHP forum is to find other Indian Reva owners and see if there is any interest in expanding the G-Wiz Owner's Club into a worldwide group.

Next year, Reva are launching a new electric car. Has anyone here heard anything about it? Any spy photographs or information available? There is certainly a lot of interest here in the UK in the new car.
