Is Ather 450X Still Worth Buying? | 6 Months Ownership Review

I wanted to finish at least 5000 kms before I do an ownership review of the Ather 450X electric vehicle (EV). But with the launch of Ola S1 electric Scooter and SImple Energy's One EV, I felt this is the perfect time to do a long term review and I hope you like it. Let me know what you think!

Waiting for EV road trip anna just a small suggestion: I definitely think that series will grab 5 to 10x more attention than Jaguar review, So please don't compramise on content of that series. I know you never compramise on content but just saying as I feel that will be a huge hit if it's put in right way and KZbin works it has to be.❣️

Hi Buddy..... Thanks for Honest Review on Ather 450x. M also a family Member of Ather Family . I had bought it in April. My per day usage is Lil bit high approximately 120 + kms ... For that i need to charge it on multiple time. After completion of 5 month i hd ride it approx 12000+ kms . Bt still my Experience is aout this Ather is on Extreme level. M really highly satisfied with this . Everyone's observation may differ due to Roads n traffic. My observations n using skills by experience. Top Speed ECO mode - 55 - 60 (Need to daily cleaning of Tyres n Belt) RIDE mode - 65 - 70 SPORT mode - 90☺️ (After putting 250kgs load on Ather..... Performance never get reduced .... Hats Off ☺️☺️✌️✌️) In monsoon ... Lots of jerks and water level had tried to reduce my Ather's performance ....but Guru ... This Is Ather ..... Hats off .... ☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️☺️👌👌👌👌 Rating - 9 out of 10 Note - bumps n Jerks may effect on your battery performance.

[@PremKumar-uz3jr]

That's an awesome observation about your ather... Can you please explain about that jerks and battery performance..I can't get that part?🤔

[@sanketnegi1]

Good thing about Ather is its reliable in spite of being expensive.. I'd buy it with that price even if they just double the range(more ye better ofcourse)

[@ravitejamalisetti813]

Bro cancel it

[@yadushreshtreddy437]

Why

[@ravitejamalisetti813]

Because Ola and simple one ,I think ather will get a new model where it will increase the range and you are getting a better bike at less price why are spending that much

[@yadushreshtreddy437]

Ola has a lot of problems it is rebranded etergo. Which is made for places which is very cool threw whole year. It has very less airflow to the motor and battery. In Indian climate it will not sustain. Simple one is too good to be true and very suspicious.

[@senthil782]

Ather like Apple company... Ola n simple energy just using business tactics to spread fake hype. Fixed battery is not good choice

[@akshaybharadwaj9671]

Ather needs to work on their pricing, With competitors like Simple Energy and Ola Electric, Ather is going to face serious threat. Also Ather does not seem attractive anymore with that 84km range, Great ownership review by you Charan, Waiting for you to review the Ola and Simple Electric once they are available Kudos!!!

Ather at this current market it's not worth at all. It's no where near the recent compitiors ola S1 pro and simply one.Best part is not even near in the price.better to wait.

[@kaustubkreks6943]

You give the best ownership reviews and quality that even big teams copy you with out permission

[@apurbaoverdrive]

30,000km. in 3yrs of riding a petrol 2 wheeler, assuming 40km/L milage @108rs/lit. its 81,000/-. Now if the battery costs 60,000/- after 3yr + the electricity for 3yrs. Its not look that much promising. I mean as the EV companies are promoting by comparing the cost with IC engines. Need to think. Of course there is much more maintenance cost in IC, but still nobody is talking about EV servicing costs and maintenance etc. They need to improve the infrastructure a lot more to truly engage more people to use EV and of course the cost, its still way more high!

[@itsgodzagain]

Honestly there is no way ather will even remain relevant after ola and simple launches. Way lesser price, waay more power and range

It should be fine as long as you keep it in shade. Expect less range than cooler weathers but it’s designed for indian conditions unlike Ola

Ola is better option

[@dipmansinhvaghela7300]

1 kWh of raw Battery capacity weights 3.5kg so that's not much it mainly depends on the price 1kwh Liion from brands like Sony or LG or Samsung cost around 5,000 to 8,000 INR I feel like ather soon release its new scooter with 4 to 5kwh battery that'll have at least 200 KM per charge range

[@AjayPatil-fj5tu]

Than why does the battery of atther which is around 3kw/h cost so much around 66k..ather don't look promising... I think so they make their bike very much cheap max can be 1 lakh.. But they sell for 2 lakh without subsidy... They are looting people

[@dipmansinhvaghela7300]

@@AjayPatil-fj5tu 8000 is the price for raw batteries means only 21700 or 18650 cells you need to make casing which is not plastic it also need to have adequate cooling the main expenses are BMS and Ac to Dc converter to charge the battery all things adds up

[@umamaheshwarreddy5554]

Ola and simple energy one have better range....although they are yet to be tested in real world still figures are way better and appealing than ather. If s1 pro and simple energy one perform as they were told then those wud be go to EVs in future. But u bought Ather at much higher price then, now prices are significantly lower.

You don’t get petrol scooter also at that price for these many features and performance

[@kartheeksurapaneni]

Most Exciting thing of an EV is the ease at which OTA update can be given to make the performance better.. Most Concerning thing of an EV is also an OTA update which can be exploited by OEMs to downgrade the performance after 2-3 years... (we all know how mobile market evolved over time) I am really excited about Simple energy the way they implemented the fixed and portable battery packs in to the vehicle... But as a company they have to prove themselves in the market... Coming to Ola and Ather.. I would definetly go with Ather though the price is on a higher note... I am very certain that data collected from my vehicle is only used for betterment of BMS.. With Ola im not sure... Btw, Isnt Ather charging a premium monthly for usage of their Fast charging network???
