Chetan Maini, Chief Executive Officer, Mahindra Reva Electric Vehicles, said, What we are doing with the scheme is bringing down the cost of acquisition while we guarantee the customers battery performance coupled with inflation proof running costs. We will own the battery, all that the customer needs to do is pay a monthly fee. Commenting on the reason for the discount, Maini said, We have had a lot of customers who liked the car but were deterred by the cost. Now with this, we hope we will make it more affordable for them and push up sales.
