yes and no. yes they’re hardware wise identical, and no Ather isn’t allowing that.
i’m in the same boat as you. got the Plus but now wishing I had the extra range and Bluetooth like the X. i hope they consider this suggestion for upgrading down the line.
Thank you, friend, I did look for this topic but couldn’t find any. If it is not too much trouble could I request that you link those here?
Now Auto Hold as well
Found these from an old topic, not sure if they are still true
To clear it doesn’t stand true. It is not a different line of production. It is the same vehicle with restricted features but as I said it is a show stopper arrangement for them.
Like OLA it is the same vehicle at different price points with restricted features. They upgraded some of the early vehicles because they had to cover up for the delayed time lines and over aggressive marketing hype, which they couldn’t deliver. It is a marketing and publicity stunt.
This type of product categorisation is common across brands, In 4W too.
have a look at this spec sheet. looks like the 450+ is also getting Autohold!
Not necessarily true, I knew exactly what I was not getting and am ok(I still don’t need the range, acceleration and Bluetooth). But now we are talking about features like auto hold that are useful
Same here bro … they announced that gen 3 will get auto hold now its showing that only 450x will get this feature. This is wrong. We also want this feature. We agrred not to have bluetooth and extra range but didn’t agreed for not having extra features in future also.
The company has not let the plus owners down, They are still offering the AtherStack 5, If you own a Gen 3 you will get Auto Hold, the only feature you will miss is Bluetooth. the rest other than Range will be the same.
The Plus was released with the mind set of people to actually buy the EV and not burdened with the extra 20k.
That is not a fair assessment, we cannot really be judging without all the information. It could be released to plus owners in the next phase
Open Ather website then go to faq and click on 450x updates … there you can see that auto hold is available only for Gen 3 450x variant and i have confirmed from customer service also
Here you go,
It says on the specs sheet that both 450x and plus will get Autohold.
There might a conflicting information so wait for them to clear things out
Yes this is the confusion
Yes they have to rectify it n correct it rather
He said no owner left behind…so let’s see what happens when we get update.
I think some mistake or glitch in their official website
The title of the spec sheet document is ‘gen 3.1’ if you look at it closely. So, a possibility could be that for 450+ Gen 3.1, Auto hold would be enabled but for rest of us, it might not work. Have booked my 450+ last month and paid in full but yet to take delivery. So, possibly I too will be left out.
