Ather co-founders drop new details on Rizta e-scooter ahead of April 6 debut
Ather Energy co-founders Tarun Mehta and Swapnil Jain have released a new video on social media, dropping new details on the upcoming Rizta family electric scooter. The Ather Rizta will be the brand’s all-new offering intended for family buyers and the e-scooter is set to get several new features, apart from its much-hyped massive seat. The Rizta will make its debut at the Ather Community Day 2024 on April 6.
Hinting at the new features, Mehta and Jain revealed that the new Rizta will not only get a bigger seat but also translate to bigger storage. At present, the Ather 450X offers an under-seat storage capacity of 22 litres, which is substantially low when compared to the 34-litre capacity available in the Ola S1 range.
