His track record centers on brand development, network expansion, and product strategy across the two-wheeler space.
The appointment comes as Revolt looks to scale operations beyond its current market position. Kurian previously spent eight years at Yamaha Motor India as Senior Vice President of Sales and Marketing, where he oversaw growth from 200,000 units in 2010 to over a million units by 2016—a period that marked Yamaha’s resurgence in the Indian motorcycle market.

Founded in 2017, Revolt Motors positions itself as a pioneer in India’s electric two-wheeler segment. The company launched what it calls India’s first AI-enabled motorcycle and has been working to expand its dealership network across the country. The electric motorcycle market in India has seen rapid growth over the past three years, with multiple legacy manufacturers and startups competing for market share.
