We can’t even actually think of pay as you drive even after spending one lakh for owning it ?
Let’s think battery hooked up after 4 years. By 4 years you would have paid the subscription cost itself around 96,000 which i bet is far lesser than the new battery replacement.
I think the person who worked for some insurance company has become these kind of scheme maker in Ather. You monthly monthly pay litlle little amount if something happens then you claim If not then they make use of your money.
Right now around 30k but right now also means 2-3 years later as you’re covered by Ather. Funnily enough in 3 years the prices are to fall drastically due to 2 reasons
Currently with 96k you’d get 3 of them.
Exactly.
450 is getting the 4g revision (for all users)
P.S. they haven’t mentioned the timeline. As Vodafone is to stay for a while there is no worry of losing connectivity
I’ll give ather a week to reconsider this stupid subscription prices.
If they do then they get my money.
Or else sorry ather, there are many other alternatives in market.
I agree I think owning vehicle as per the classic model is benificial as we will be keeping the vehicle for longer time. But 1.7 lacs on road way too high.
Also what you think about battery consistency over the years, can we expect atleast 5 yrs with 10% of degradation?
I seriously hope Ather puts together something more sensible to the general audience and to satisfy the community’s needs. More than a Super Scooter, it is turning out to be a Super Expensive Scooter.
Sorry ather… But you are really killing the dream of owning a eco friendly ev for a common man in India. In the presentation I heard @tarun say that the aim of ather is to accelerate the adoption of ev in India… How are you supposed to achieve this when you make it so incredibly hard for someone to own an ather 450x… This is really sad… I had so much hope in you guys thinking that you were the tesla of India after seeing the 450. But this is such a let down of overpricing for minor improvements and that too when major issues like longer range, mirrors and foot rests weren’t even improved. I hope you are reading all these messages and reconsider your pricing and it’s structure.
Mujhpe ek ehsaan karna, ke mujhpe koi ehsaan mat karna. Sir, this is definitely deserved collectors edition. Lol
Well, we need a Redmi , not apple or Samsung. Can’t you see the decline in Apple and Samsung’s market share??
It’s not just 1lakh+infinite 2k, you have to add infinite subscription plan for Ather one plan(minimum of 9k/per annum
Hi
There are lot of issues in Ather 450 as well. I am sending my vehicle frequently to service for rectification. I am not happy with Ather 450 as well. Better choice to go with either Chetak or TVS.
IS it start downfall of ATHER ?
What are issues can you please tell us in detail and about their services please?
The price 1.6 lakhs even without registration. LOL Hope Hero takes over the Ather and save it, otherwise they will price it away from market
Am quite astonished with such pricing, Everytime Ather builds upon data they have about riding stats and being a data driven company , How they can make such a stupid pricing plan albeit they also have the sales data service cycles and costs , Its no where a pricing which can kick ev adoption, With todays pricing and subscription plans i do not see even a single reason i should opt a 450x for an Activa or Ntorq they literally killled every reason one might consider an EV over an ICE scooter , In 1.7L why i shouldn’t go for a Dominar or even KTM if i want pure performance??
You’ll need a few more moderators for a few days for sure apart from the 5 we have already
Im cancelling the Pre-order or 450X not what I was expecting .Totally disappointing.
Is there any deadline to cancel the order to get the refund ?
