Unlike most electric scooters that tier their lineup into base, mid, and top variants, River took the opposite approach with the Indie: one variant, one spec sheet, no compromise. The River Indie STD is priced at Rs 1,45,999 ex-showroom (Delhi base), and that's the only buying decision you need to make - the 4 kWh battery, 6.7 kW motor, CBS braking, reverse assist, and 55L storage all come standard.

Prices vary by city due to state road tax and subsidy structures:

- Delhi: Rs 1,59,072 (additional Rs 18,300 state subsidy applicable)
- Bangalore: Rs 1,60,685
- Mumbai: Rs 1,55,585
- Chennai: Rs 1,61,157
- Hyderabad: Rs 1,63,199
- Pune: Rs 1,60,749
- Kolkata: Rs 1,55,585
- Ahmedabad: Rs 1,48,777
- Jaipur: Rs 1,48,777
- Lucknow: Rs 1,70,728

All five colours - Storm Grey, Winter White, Spring Yellow, Monsoon Blue, and Summer Red - are available at no additional cost. Accessories including panniers, a top box, and crash guards are sold separately and can meaningfully extend the Indie's already-impressive carrying capacity.

## Variants
| Variant | Ex-showroom Price |
|---------|------------------|
| Standard | ₹ 1,53,894 |

River offers three warranty tiers: the Standard plan (3 years / 30,000 km), the Plus Two plan (5 years / 50,000 km), and the Plus Five plan (8 years / 80,000 km) - the last introduced in October 2025 for both new buyers and existing owners.

On-road prices add RTO charges, insurance, and dealer fees on top of the ex-showroom figure - typically Rs 12,000 - Rs 25,000 depending on state. EMI buyers on a 36-month tenure at 8.5% interest can expect approximately Rs 4,600 - Rs 4,900 per month for the on-road amount with a standard 15-20% down payment.

## FAQs

**How many variants does the River Indie come in?**
The River Indie is available in a single variant - the STD - priced at Rs 1,45,999 ex-showroom (Delhi base). Every buyer gets the complete spec including 4 kWh battery, 6.7 kW motor, reverse assist, and 55L storage. There are no trim upgrades or cut-spec base versions.

**Which is the best-value River Indie variant?**
Since the River Indie has only one variant, the buying decision is purely about city: Ahmedabad and Jaipur buyers pay the lowest on-road price (Rs 1,48,777), while Delhi buyers can also apply for a Rs 18,300 state EV subsidy. Lucknow is the most expensive city at Rs 1,70,728.

**Does any River Indie variant offer ABS?**
No - the River Indie's single STD variant uses CBS (Combined Braking System) only and does not offer ABS. This is the most consistently requested feature improvement from the owner community and remains absent as of the Gen 3 (October 2025) update.

**What warranty does the River Indie come with?**
River offers three warranty tiers: Standard (3 years / 30,000 km), Plus Two (5 years / 50,000 km), and Plus Five (8 years / 80,000 km). The 8-year option - one of the longest in the Indian EV segment - was introduced in October 2025 and is available to both new buyers and existing owners.
