India’s one of leading electric two wheelers manufacturing company Ather Energy has unveiled its new budget electric scooter as the name of ‘Ather 450s’.
Finally We got the Ather 450s electric scooter launch date update. So before looking at this update let’s look at the current Ather lineup. Currently Ather offers two electric scooter variants in India. They are Ather 450x and Ather 450x pro.
After reduction of FAME-ll subsidy both these electric scooters became expensive. Ather 450x base variant is offered at an extra room cost of Rs 1,40,559 and the Ather 450x Pro variant comes with Rs 1,67,073 rupees.
Both these are extra room prices. When it comes to on-road you should add 10,000 to 15,000 extra depending upon the state in which you are staying. So as I already said after the FAME-ll subsidy has been revised both these electric scooters have become expensive.They are no more value for money. So Ather thought of introducing a new electric scooter variant in an affordable price range.
So one month back they announced electric scooter model called Ather 450s which is going to be a starting and affordable electric scooter in Ather lineup.
They are teasing this Ather 450s electric scooter in the social media handles by showing some of its technical specifications and features.
But what Ather is offering in this affordable price range. There will be less power and less range compared to the current Ather lineup. Ather will definitely do some cost cutting on this electric scooter. So by considering the leaks which they have given till now.
