Ather Energy recently made changes to its electric scooter range and it now offers the 450X in two trims: base and Pro Pack. The two models differ quite a bit and here we explain them in detail.
Ather 450X
The 450X is the most affordable offering from Ather with an asking price of Rs. 1.14 lakh (ex-showroom, Bengaluru). It features the same sporty design that the 450 e-scooter has carried over the past few years. This model has LED illumination and a 6.4kW motor with a belt drive. It’s mated to a 3.7kWh battery with a claimed range and top speed of 105km and 90kmph, respectively.
Meanwhile, its hardware setup comprises telescopic front forks and a monoshock, while the braking setup includes a front and rear disc with a combined braking system and regenerative braking. The latter is mounted on 12-inch alloys wrapped in 90/90 front and 100/80 rear tyres. It features a seven-inch TFT with a grey-scale dashboard.
Ather 450X Pro Pack
The Pro Pack model features all the above bits in terms of hardware, motor, and battery. Ather has additionally equipped the Pro Pack with five riding modes – Smart Eco, Eco, Ride, Sport, and Warp. The 450X Pro Pack also benefits from fast charging, hill assist, Bluetooth compatibility, music and call display, auto-indicator off, navigation, guide-me-home lights, tyre pressure monitoring system, document storage, OTA (Over The Air) updates, and remote charge monitoring.
Ather has priced the 450X Pro Pack at Rs. 1.45 lakh (ex-showroom, Bengaluru), which is about Rs. 30,000 more than the base model.
