Ather 450 Price Reduced Gets Buyback Option

  • Subscriptions plans have been revised and made more flexible.
  • Four plans to choose from with prices starting at Rs 125 per month.
  • Exchange offers also available.

 

Bengaluru based EV startup Ather Energy has announced a unique buyback programme for the 450X. Ather says it’ll buy back the 450X from customers for Rs 85,000 at the end of 3 years IF the customer wants to part ways with the scooter. According to the brand the e-scooter has a strong resale value thanks to its reliability aspect, which has been affirmed by existing owners of the Ather 450.

Admittedly, the price of the 450X was on the higher side and Ather understands this, especially during these testing times. So, in a bid to make the scooter more accessible, Ather has introduced a new lease plan. It allows customers to get their hands on the 450X at a lower price and for a nominal monthly fee. This makes sense for those who aren't willing to buy the scooter up front. 

Alternatively, customers could trade in their ICE-powered scooter for the Ather 450X and take advantage of low-interest rates. And if you think the 450X is too outlandish for you, you could opt for the lower-spec Ather 450 Plus, which now retails at a reduced price of Rs 1,39,990.

Adding to the list of changes are the new subscription plans which have been revised for more flexibility in order to match the usage of the consumer. There are four different options to choose from based on the customer's usage. The plans include Ather Connect Lite (all basic connected features), Ather Connect Pro, Ather Service Lite (periodic maintenance, RSA & labour) and Ather Service Pro (premium service experience). 

Just in case you’re wondering, the base plan starts at Rs 125 per month. Ather has also extended the courtesy to make charging at public charging points and Ather Grid free until March 2021.

Breaking Down BS6 Carburettors And Fuel Injection Explained

  It’s now been nearly 4 months since BS6 emission norms came into effect, and almost all the bikes and scooters sold in India have been updated to meet the stricter regulations. Most recent among these to receive the updates was the TVS Scooty Zest BS6 , which was launched a couple of days ago at Rs 58,640. Like all the BS6 updates we’ve seen so far, this new version is more expensive than its BS4 predecessor, by around Rs 6,000 in this case. And the biggest reason behind these price hikes is the addition of a fuel-injection system. So what exactly is it? And how did bikes work before fuel-injection came into the picture? Let’s take a look: To understand why a fuel-injection (FI) system is needed, we first need to understand its predecessor: the carburettor. Both FI and carburettors do the same job: mixing air and fuel in the correct proportions before it’s sent into the engine. The diagram above shows a carburettor’s layout. Air enters at the top, flows through a narrow con...

BMW Motorrad Showcases Radical Electric Vision DC Roadster

The Vision DC Roadster takes the brands iconic 2-cylinder boxer engine design and gives it a rather interesting twist.  The design was inspired by the BMW R 32 developed by Max Friz in 1923. BMW has also designed a two-piece functional suit that looks like a casual jacket and black trousers. BMW Motorrad is no newcomer to electric vehicles. We’ve already seen the brands Vision Next 100 concept which gave a glimpse of the company’s future vision. Now though, BMW intends to change our outlook on electric two-wheelers which are more often than not perceived as boring. And they plan on doing so with the Vision DC Roadster, an all-electric bike that gives the word unconventional a whole new meaning. The design team started off by taking its iconic 2-cylinder boxer engine and giving it a rather interesting twist. The idea was to retain its protruding design but incorporate it in an electric motor. The challenge was its packaging. You see, in an IC engine, the size of the motor ...
