We're building in the open
Reva Autonomous Systems is a new company. We have prototypes, not an installed base, and we would rather say so. This log shows where each product stands, with dates.

Drive choices comparedQuotations for wheel drives from European and Asian makers compared on torque, braking, price and size.
Platform trolley sized48 V differential-drive trolley, 1.5 t gross, designed around integrated drive wheels.
First drive runsTrolley prototype driven on a single motor; steering with two motor controllers and a joystick worked out next.
Drive-wheel makers visitedFactory visit and trade-fair meetings with drive-wheel, navigation and battery suppliers. Battery re-sized by trips per shift at 40 m/min.
Heavier wheels ordered, 5 t enquiries outA larger drive-wheel sample ordered for the trolley. Enquiries sent for sprung steering drive wheels for the 5 t trackless AGV.
Products namedThe operator-driven e-cart range becomes Reva Sarathi, and the trackless AGV range becomes Reva Gati.
Trials and the first heavy cartTrolley steering and field trials, 5 t trackless AGV design, and the first rail transfer cart with a pilot customer.

Pilot customers
Put our first heavy carts to work
We are looking for a small number of plants with a real transfer problem, a crane bay, rails or a sound floor, and a team willing to give us honest feedback.
A pilot is a normal purchase with a normal warranty. The difference is how closely we work together, and that what you tell us shapes the production model.
What a pilot customer gets
- Site survey and first engineering at no charge
- Pilot pricing on the first unit
- A direct line to the design team
- Factory trial in Faridabad, witnessed by you
- Your feedback built into the production model
