Interestingly, the scooter's 770 mm seat height and 14-inch wheels make it a bit similar to the Yamaha Aerox and Aprilia SR160. It also comes with a claimed gradability of 18 degrees, which is more than the Ola S1 Pro that can ride a 15-degree incline.

The EV startup claims that the River Indie features a 43-litre under-seat boot space along with a 12-litre glove box. It also claims to come with a host of accessories as options, that can be easily mounted. These include pannier mounts on both sides and bag hooks. The scooter gets park assist, dual USB ports etc.

On the powertrain front, River Indie gets energy from an IP67-rated 4 kWh battery pack that provides juice to a 6.7 kWh electric motor, which churns out 26 Nm of torque. Power is sent to the rear wheel via a belt drive, propelling the EV to sprint 0-40 kmph in 3.9 seconds at a top speed of 90 kmph. The scooter promises a 120 km range on a single charge. The manufacturer has also claimed that the scooter comes with a five-year / 50,000 km warranty.
