Upcoming Ather 450 Apex: Details!
Individuals can now reserve their Ather 450 Apex through the official website, with a refundable deposit of Rs 2,500. The anticipated delivery of these electric scooters is scheduled to commence in March 2024. In a recent teaser, Ather Energy shared insights into a couple of exciting new features. One noteworthy addition is the introduction of a fresh riding mode named Warp+. Expected to replace the existing Warp mode in the 450 Apex, this mode promises an even swifter acceleration than its predecessor, establishing the 450 Apex as one of the fastest scooters in the country.
For those familiar with the Ather 450X, equipped with a 3.7 kWh battery, the certified range stands at an impressive 150 km. In comparison, the 2.9 kWh battery option offers a certified range of 111 km. The 0 to 40 km/h acceleration time of 3.3 seconds enhances the speed capabilities, solidifying its position at the top of the lineup and surpassing the competition in terms of speed. So, for those keen on a high-performing electric scooter, the Ather 450 Apex seems set to deliver an exhilarating and efficient riding experience.

The upcoming Ather 450 Apex is set to introduce an intriguing feature: multi-level regenerative braking, as suggested by the teaser. To provide some context, its predecessor, the 450X, currently employs coasting regenerative braking, a system that gently slows down the scooter when you release the throttle, eliminating the need to apply the brakes.
Recent reports, now officially confirmed on the company's website, reveal that the 450 Apex will be equipped with these new panels. These panels are expected to enhance the overall braking experience, providing riders with more control and efficiency. On the aesthetic side, one of the anticipated colour schemes for the 450 Apex is called Indium Blue.
Moving on to the performance aspect, the Ather 450 Apex is projected to house the same 3.7kWh capacity battery pack as its predecessor, the 450X. However, it's not just a carbon copy; the 450 Apex will undergo slight tuning adjustments to yield more power than the 6.4kW output observed in the 450X. This means riders can expect a boost in performance, promising an exciting and dynamic riding experience.
But that's not all the 450 Apex might also come equipped with additional features such as cruise control and at least single-channel ABS, elevating the scooter's functionality and safety standards.
Anticipated for release in late December 2023, this upcoming launch is set to compete with contenders like the Simple One, Ola S1 Pro, and TVS X.
Verdict
The Ather 450 Apex is set to revolutionize the electric scooter scene, boasting features like Warp+ and advanced regenerative braking. Its tuned performance, sleek design, and competitive price position it as a strong competitor. For those who value speed and cutting-edge tech, the Ather 450 Apex is a top choice, signaling a big shift in the electric two-wheeler market.
