This is what ev scooter makers should do. Make sure your product and its features work all the time without glitches and breakdown

[nirmalraj]

Hats off to Ather for consistently innovating without compromising on QC. I hope the other Indian manufacturers can take a leaf or two from their playbook.

Not bad, I would always prefer Ather over Ola

[shivamk]

If a Petrol scooter costs Rupees 3000 per month then it means an average running cost of 36000 per year and at a price tag of over 2 lakhs on Road it would take me 6 years to recover my purchasing cost and this would be possible only if the battery doesn't require a replacement in those 6 years. Financially buying this scooter would be a disaster under light-moderate usage

[mohammedshaik]

lovely to see an Indian company doing so quality products!

[wahoobootcamp]

The magic twist tech is amazing with its all-new sporty features. Luckily we didn't book the second Ather 450X, our patience is now more meaningful after seeing this apex model, so let's test drive and book it.

The reverse throttle REGEN braking is already there in ola since a long time ago...
And i am very used to it and it works fantastic...
Also, it is called as 'FORCED REGEN' by ola

[siddharthsalvi]

I don’t know about other’s but i prefer a good range over a good performance.

[senorcaracortada]

My one month old ather 450x hr with pro pack is showing speed 20-30 while standing still and 91kmph while actually going at 10kmph, display crashes and reboots every 5 minutes and has been to the service center 5 times in one month. Do something about that first ?

[Whatifffff]

POV:If Overhyped had a Synonym
Price ke upar no subsidy kills this product

[ITC.]

Their strategy has become similar to apple, same model performance improvements, high price plus hype

[rishi_sk]

Forced regen reinvented by Ather is like Apple reinventing USB Type C.. 😂

[TigerClawz]

I get out of my house and, So MANY ATHERS ON THE ROAD!!!

[kumarraj]

Lots of Love for Ather (Series 1 owner). But I think it’s high time they get us a bike. 😊

[himangshumahanta]

Autocar, it's 2024, your videos should be in 4k by now.

[rushilshah]

As a fellow Ather 450x wish they had finally given the must needed ABS system on the If not dual channel then atleast on the scooter is very easy to lock up and added power is just going to make matters worse.... At over 2 lakh rupees on road this shouldn't have been missed

[bevinitpatel]

My ola s1 pro has this regen feature from last two years.

[sarbajitdas]

Ather should give belt cover in all ather 450 x series like gen 3 also .... people facing lots of problems

[Nagarjunpara]

Curious question, Ola always had this feature (regen by throttle twist) right? But it only works once the battery is less than 80%

[Amuzic]

They could have increased the battery capacity to 4.5kwh or 5 kWh....I would have really sold my gen 2 450 plus and got this. I won't get the subsidy anyway, as I have utilised it already.. This does appear to be desirable except for the range figure. 4.5 kWh battery should have given it real world range of 150 km.
