According to the manufacturer, the Ather 450 has a range of up to 75km per charge (claimed figure). The lithium-ion battery pack is located on the floorboard, making the vehicle more stable since the centre of gravity is low.

In addition, Ather Grid fast charging points allow one to charge outside the confines of one's home. As an alternative, you can also use the scooter's onboard charger (sold separately), which allows you to connect it to a 5A socket and charge the battery pack.
The bike has a telescopic front fork, mono-shock rear suspension, petal discs at both ends, and a combined braking system as standard. With a delivery time of about 4-6 weeks, the Ather 450 is currently available in Bengaluru and Chennai. It competes against the Bajaj Chetak and the TVS iQube Electric.
