Comfort

Now if you talk about comfort, the seat of the Ather 450X is quite comfortable despite the sportier setup. The design of Pillion grab handles is also quite good, making it easy for the rear sitter as well. Its kerb weight is just 111.6 kg, due to which it is light and easy to manoeuver scooter.

This is perfect for short trips and city rides. Yes, its 22-liter underseat storage does not accommodate every type of shopping, but daily use is quite useful. Cushioning and ergonomics are so good that fatigue is not felt even in long ridges.

Performance

The true strength of the electric scooter comes to the fore during ride. The rear-mounted motor of the Ather 450X gives a power of 8.70bhp and a torque of 26Nm, making the city ridges quite fun. Reaching 0 to 40 kmph in just 3.3 seconds is evidence of its quick acceleration. At the same time its top speed goes up to 90kmph, which is quite practical for daily commutes.

Talking about ride quality, the ground clearance of 170mm makes it comfortable on speed breakers and bad paths as well. Sporty chassis and suspension give energetic feel to set-up scooter, but despite this the comfort does not compromise. This balance makes the Ather 450X perfect mix of performance and practicality.

Battery and Range

The Ather 450X has the largest strength of its 3.7kWh battery, which gives an electric range of 161km according to IDC. Its efficiency is also good in real world. In our fleet this scooter runs comfortably up to 130km/charge.

Even in charging it does not take much time and supports long rides. The battery backup is quite reliable according to daily use.
