Ather: The Bike of Scooters

Ather is redefining electric mobility by delivering the power, handling, and thrill of a motorbike in the body of a smart, eco-friendly scooter. With features like lightning-fast acceleration, high-speed stability, advanced traction control, and a connected dashboard, Ather scooters — especially the 450X and 450S — offer a futuristic riding experience built for performance and intelligence. It's not just a scooter. It's the Bike of Scooters.

May 05 2025

When you think of scooters, you usually think of slow rides and easy commuting. But, Ather is not here to follow the rules — it’s here to redefine them. Ather scooters deliver the power, precision, and thrill usually reserved for motorbikes, wrapped inside a futuristic electric machine.

No wonder why people call it the Bike of Scooters.

Power and Speed Like a Motorbike

The Ather 450X and 450S models smash the old image of scooters being slow or weak:

  • Electric Motor: 100% electric powertrain with lightning-fast torque delivery.
  • Performance: 0–40 km/h in just around 3.3 seconds — faster than many 150cc bikes!
  • Top Speed: Up to 90 km/h, making highway stretches and overtakes effortless.

Whether you’re accelerating out of a signal or racing uphill, the bike-like pull will put a wide grin on your face.

Engineering That Means Business

Dual Channel ByBre Brakes

Ather comes equipped with powerful ByBre dual-channel brakes, ensuring you stop with complete confidence.

  • Better braking force even at high speeds.
  • Superior safety during emergency stops or in wet conditions.

Single-Side Monoshock Suspension

Unlike traditional scooters, Ather uses a single-side monoshock suspension, providing:

  • Better high-speed stability
  • Sharper cornering capabilities
  • Improved weight balance for confident maneuvering
  • It gives you the feeling of riding a sportbike — with smoother landings and firmer control through every curve.

Multi-Mode Traction Control (2025 Model)

New in the 2025 Ather models — Multi-Mode Traction Control with Rain, Rally, and Road modes:

  • Rain Mode: Enhanced grip on slippery surfaces.
  • Road Mode: Balanced everyday performance.
  • Rally Mode: Aggressive riding with reduced traction intervention for fun, adventurous rides.

This feature brings big bike technology right into your daily city rides — giving you confidence in all weather and road conditions.

Weight Balance and Cornering Confidence

The aluminum frame and motor-battery layout are designed for perfect weight distribution.

  • It feels planted while cornering hard.
  • No wobbling at high speeds or sharp turns.
  • Ground Clearance of 170mm ensures you glide over bumps, potholes, and rough patches — perfect for Nepal's urban and semi-urban roads.

Simply put: You ride it like a bike. You lean into curves like a bike. You feel the road like a bike.

Smarter Than Most Motorbikes

While most bikes are still mechanical machines, Ather is a fully connected smart vehicle:

Large Touchscreen Dashboard with:

  • Google Maps Navigation
  • Ride Statistics
  • Bluetooth music control
  • Call and music control

Ather App features:

  • Find My Scooter
  • Trip Planner
  • Theft Alerts
  • Riding Stats

It's like having a smartphone and superbike experience rolled into one powerful scooter.

Range, Charging, and Eco-Responsibility

You don't just ride fast — you ride green:

  • Range: 105–130 km per charge (model and ride mode dependent)
  • Fast Charging: With Ather Grid, charge from 0–80% in around 45 minutes.
  • Zero Emissions: Ather helps reduce air pollution while still delivering top performance.

Forget the myth that electric means boring — Ather scooters are the future of thrilling, responsible riding.
