Pros and Cons of Indie
- Lots of storage space
- Torquey enough even in Eco mode
- Suspension tuned to handle heavy loads
- Funky and likeable design
- Display quality could’ve been better
- Suspension is on the firmer side with just the rider’s weight
- Throttle calibration in Rush mode could’ve been smoother
The River Indie gets all the basics right for a premium, practical, funky electric scooter. Its torquey motor also helps it tackle hilly roads. That said, the Indie is only available in Bengaluru for now, with phase-wise expansion planned in the near future. We hope River manages to expand rapidly, all the while ensuring there’s no bottleneck between demand and supply.

Design: The Indie’s styling is quirky and resembles the Yamaha Neo’s. Its LED headlight with the LED DRL looks cool and the scooter has an overall rugged look. The crash guards on the front and the side panels, along with the chunky single-piece grab rail accentuate the sturdy look.

It has three riding modes- Eco, Ride and Rush, all of which can be used through its six-inch LCD instrument console. Bits like two charging ports and a reverse parking assist feature add to the convenience. Its underseat storage is at a market-leading 43-litre, along with a 12-litre lockable front glove box. You can get yourself pannier stays, accessory mounts, bag hooks, top box and more.

Range: The e-scoot offers a claimed real world range of 120km from its 4kWh battery pack. Charging the battery from 0-80 percent will take about five hours using a standard charger.
