Mahindra has revealed that it is working on a four-door version of the E2O for export markets.
Pawan Goenka, Executive Director of Mahindra & Mahindra expressed the company's plans to develop a four-door version of its electric small car, E2O to cater to the European markets. This four-door variant is likely to be introduced by mid 2016 and the company also plans to set up a distribution centre in the United Kingdom.
A four-door will add that much more practicality to this tiny city car. While it might not be too spacious for rear passengers, the extra doors will aid ingress / egress which isn't the most convenient (as expected out of a two-door). It is likely that the four-door variant might also be sold in India (although there is no confirmation regarding the same).
The government's FAME initiative has had a positive impact on the sales of this electric car, which are claimed to have doubled, ever since.
The FAME subsidy on the E20 is available across 8 cities - Bangalore, Delhi, Jaipur, Hyderabad, Kolkata, Mumbai, Pune and Thane. The ex-showroom price for Mumbai is Rs. 4.99 lakh + Rs. 2,999 / month for 5 years or Rs. 6.77 lakh.
