  Good vehicle with great performance. My friend bought it, and even I’m planning to buy it after seeing it. The colors are nice too. You should take a test ride and then buy it.

  Best scooter ever in all of India! Its charging and range are among the best in the world, and that's more than enough for me. I also recommend it as the best option for daily use.

  It was a great buying experience at the Ather showroom in Kalaburagi, with wonderful staff taking care of everything. The riding experience is excellent in my opinion—it's very smooth, handles well, and offers good mileage and braking power. The initial pickup is impressive too. As for the looks and design, I love the aerodynamic shape, which gives it a sporty feel. The service is really fast, and they did a wonderful job. Overall, I’m very pleased with the service provided. However, there are a few cons, such as belt noise, a handle issue, and no new themes on the dashboard. But overall, it’s a really good scooter. At the end of the day, I love this vehicle very much."

  I have done a lot of research about the Ather 450S, and I think this scooter is perfect for city use. Its design is modern, the ride is smooth, and the performance is quite good. In real life, it gives a range of about 80–90 km, which is sufficient for daily use. It also comes with smart features like Bluetooth, navigation, and a ride tracking app. The company’s service has also improved, and now it is available even in smaller cities like Chhindwara. The only drawbacks are that it doesn’t have a fast charging option and no touchscreen display. But within a budget of ₹1.30 lakh, it is quite a solid electric vehicle. If your budget is tight, this is a reliable option.
