Revoo B12

Battery and motor

The B12 uses an 1800W motor with a 12-tube vector controller, and Revoo quotes 45 to 65 km/h with a 12-degree climbing ability. Both versions carry a 73.6V 50Ah battery rated for 90 to 120 km per charge, using about 3.68 units for a full charge. The difference between them is charging: the fast-charging version reaches 80 percent in 1.5 hours, while the standard version takes 3.5 hours to 80 percent.

Size and practicality

Revoo’s slogan for the B12 is “Built to Serve”, and the page stresses durability and tough roads, which suggests it is aimed at daily workers and delivery riders as much as commuters. It weighs 105 kg and has 150 mm of ground clearance. Tyres are 3.00-10 8PR vacuum (tubeless) units, a heavier-ply tyre than on the A-series, and it has disc brakes and hydraulic suspension at both ends.

Revoo does not publish storage capacity, load capacity, dimensions or seat height for the B12, so check these at a showroom if you plan to carry goods.

Equipment by variant

Both versions share the motor, battery, discs front and rear, hydraulic suspension and 8-ply tyres. The Rs 395,000 version adds fast charging (1.5 hours to 80 percent). Revoo does not list other equipment differences.

Charging and running costs

Revoo publishes how many units of electricity each battery takes to charge fully. Using the example rate of Rs 30 per unit that Revoo uses on its Pakistan website, the B12 Standard Charging uses about 3.68 units, roughly Rs 110 per full charge or about Rs 0.92 per km at its claimed maximum range; the B12 Fast Charging uses about 3.68 units, roughly Rs 110 per full charge or about Rs 0.92 per km at its claimed maximum range. Revoo notes that real costs depend on local tariffs and riding habits.

For riders who work all day, the large battery and quick charging are the main selling points. In our estimate, Revoo’s range figure suggests a full working day of city riding is possible on one charge, with a short top-up if needed.

Warranty

The battery has a 36-month warranty and the motor 24 months on both versions.

Which variant to buy

Our opinion: the standard B12 at Rs 350,000 is the better value for most riders, since 3.5 hours to 80 percent is already quick enough to recharge over a lunch break or overnight. The Rs 45,000 fast-charging version is worth it mainly for riders who work long shifts and need to top up in under two hours. Note that the fast version costs almost as much as the C35 GT, which has a 3000W motor and more range, so commuters should compare the two.
