Two new electric cars for India this month?

Bangalore, India-based Reva Electric Car said today it plans to unveil its two newest highway-ready electric vehicles later this month at the Frankfurt International Motor Show.

The vehicles would follow in the footsteps of Reva's original electric car, the REVA, with a cost of Rs 300,000 to Rs 389,000 ($6,100 to $8,000) in India after government subsidies, and an operational cost of Rs 40 ($0.82) for 100 kilometers (see Reva-ing it up in Delhi!).

Reva previously said it wanted to debut two new vehicles in 2009: a sedan version of the REVA, and a version with a lithium-ion battery capable of a range of 75 miles.

The company said today the first car to be unveiled will be the REVA NXR, a four-seat, three-door hatchback family car, scheduled to go into production in 2010. Additionally, Reva plans to showcase the REVA NXG, a sporty two-seater designed by Dilip Chhabria of DC Design for 2011.

Reva said it also plans to unveil a new technology Incorporated in the two vehicles, REVive, which helps consumers receive instant, remote charges.

Pricing and availability are expected to be announced at the event on Sept. 16.

Reva is a joint venture between Maini Group of India and AEV of California. The company’s backers include the Global Environment Fund and Draper Fisher Jurvetson.

The company said in February it plans to double production of its electric mini-car with a facility underway in Bangalore with a capacity of 30,000 units per year (see REVA bucks auto trend with Indian expansion plans). Reva has 3,000 EVs on the road and is selling and marketing its cars in 24 countries, including Ireland, Belgium, Spain, Cyprus, Greece, France and Norway.
