Ather 450X gets a new variant, comes with smaller battery and a shorter range
- Ather 450X is now available in both 2.9 kWh and 3.7 kWh battery pack options.
Ather Energy has launched a new variant of its flagship 450X electric scooter. Christened as Ather 450X and available at a starting price of ₹1.38 lakh (ex-showroom), this new variant comes equipped with a smaller battery pack, which is the same as the 450S, the most affordable Ather electric scooter. Also, the new variant of the Ather 450X electric scooter comes offering a significantly lower range compared to the 3.7 kWh battery pack equipped variant. Ather claims the new variant of the 450X is meant for those consumers who seek to own the scooter with the same features and performance as the original model but don't want to spend that much amount.
The Ather 450X 2.9 kWh battery-powered variant comes available in two options Core and Pro, which are priced at ₹137,999 and ₹152,999 (ex-showroom) respectively. The pricing includes FAME 2 benefits and the cost of the charger as well. This means the 450X 2.9 kWh battery pack powered variant is priced at around ₹10,000 premium over the newly launched Ather 450S. Interestingly, Ather is all set to revamp the flagship 3.7 kWh battery pack variant of the 450X as well, which will start being delivered to customers in October this year.
