      Ather 450X Gen 3 Launched in India

      Ather 450X Gen 3 Launched in India. Hero MotoCorp-back electric two-wheeler maker Ather Energy launch the third generation of its premium scooter 450X, targeting leadership in the segment by the end of this fiscal.

      The Ather expects the Indian electric two-wheeler segment to cross sales of 1 lakh units a month by the end of the ongoing financial year and it is targeting to have over 30% market share.

      Ather Energy Co-Founder and CEO Tarun Mehta told PTI :

      “We’re keeping the product branding the same. But internally, the engineering and the hardware, and the specs have changed considerably. The biggest change is the battery pack that is becoming almost 25 per cent larger, from 2.9 kilowatt hours to 3.7 kilowatt hours,”.

      Price in India

      Ather 450X Gen 3 price set at Rs 1.39 lakh (ex-showroom Delhi).

      Mechanical Specifications

      The ARAI-certified range of the electric scooter has gone up to 146 km from 116 km earlier, while the true range, which customers would get in city conditions, has also gone up to almost 105 km from 85 km on a single charge.

      Many customers, especially the first-time EV buyers, really want to cross the psychological barrier of 100 km, Tarun Mehta said

      “That was one of the biggest feedbacks we got from all our owners over the last couple of years. So we built and developed this version sometime last year.”

      Ather 450X Gen 3 has better thermal performance of the battery pack, thereby supporting performance riding for longer duration of time, he said.

      The Ather 450X Gen 3 also comes with wider rear tyres that offer better grip while leaning on turns and a shorter braking distance.

      Based on FADA data, in June 2022 Okinawa Autotech was the market leader in electric two-wheeler segment with sales of 6,980 units, follow by Ampere Vehicles at 6,540 units, Hero Electric at third place with 6,503 units and Ola Electric at fourth selling 5,874 units.

      Ather Energy was a distant fifth with 3,808 units.

      Ather Energy said the 450X Gen 3 will offer five ride modes Warp, Sport, Ride, SmartEco, and Eco with the maximum power output in Warp mode at 6.2 kW.

      The Ather 450X Gen 3 also features an upgraded dashboard with an upgraded 2 GB RAM with tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS) which is crucial to maintaining range as lower tyre pressure increases the pressure on the battery.
