Karma Revero Specs, Engines & Dimensions (2016–2021) — First Generation
The first-generation Karma Revero combines a low, sweeping sedan body with a plug-in hybrid powertrain. If you’re considering one, understanding how its petrol engine and battery work together matters more than the engine badge alone.
The Karma Revero engine generates electricity, while electric motors drive the rear wheels. Selected versions include the 2.0 AT, GT 1.5 AT and GTS 1.5 AT, all with automatic operation. This drivetrain gives you electric propulsion with petrol backup for journeys beyond the battery’s electric range.
The 2.0 AT and GT 1.5 AT use lithium-ion batteries. When assessing Karma Revero battery capacity, consider how usable energy and battery condition affect the distance you can drive before the petrol engine starts. Regular charging helps you cover more everyday journeys electrically, while temperature, speed and cabin heating influence range.
