Ampere Reo VYB Variants Explained
Ampere sells the Reo VYB in a single STD version, so every buyer gets the same battery, motor and features. As a result, buying is simple: you only need to pick a colour. Moreover, the Reo VYB sits above the standard Reo in Ampere’s line-up, adding features like keyless start and a colour LCD. Therefore, it’s Ampere’s best-equipped low-speed scooter.
What the STD Version Gets
| Area | Details |
|---|---|
| Battery and range | 1.44 kWh LFP, 80 km claimed, rated for 1 lakh km |
| Performance | 250 W hub motor, 25 km/h, reverse mode |
| Tech | 3.5-inch colour LCD, key fob with keyless start |
| Storage | 24 litres underseat |
| Safety | Front disc, rear drum, CBS |
| Lighting | LED headlamp and tail lamp |
What It Misses
The Reo VYB keeps things simple, so it skips a few features. It doesn’t offer Bluetooth, app connectivity or navigation. Moreover, it has a single ride mode rather than Eco and Sport options. It also doesn’t support fast charging. Most importantly, its 25 km/h top speed limits it to short trips on quiet roads.
Who Should Buy It
The Reo VYB suits riders who don’t have a driving licence, such as students over 16 and some senior citizens. It also works well for short trips to the market, school or local office. However, the e-Sprinto Rapo offers three ride modes and more claimed range. Meanwhile, the Zelio Eeva costs less, though with fewer premium features.
Ampere Reo VYB Price in Bengaluru
| Price component | Amount |
|---|---|
| Ex-showroom price | Rs 71,999 |
| Road tax and registration | Nil (not required for low-speed EVs) |
| Insurance | Optional |
| On-road price | About Rs 72,000 (plus optional insurance) |
As a low-speed EV, the Reo VYB doesn’t need registration, so there are no RTO charges. As a result, the on-road price stays almost the same as ex-showroom. However, buying insurance is still a good idea to cover theft or damage.
Colour Options
The Reo VYB comes in four colours: Dark Grey, Aqua Metallic, Pastel Purple and Pearl White. Pastel Purple and Aqua Metallic suit younger riders who want a bright look, while Dark Grey and Pearl White offer a more classic finish.
