Continuing the discussion from Is it not cheating?:
I Really waited this long for someone to point this out, I’m not even able to make a mid end gaming computer in 90k
So let me break down it for you,
Starting from the top,
Mirrors - 2000
2 pilot lamps - 900-1200 depending on what chip of FOB is used
Headlights - 5k,
front panels 10k All 4 of them Painted
front mudguard 1-1.5k, Painted
2 front suspension 3 k
wheel alloy 2 pc 6 k
2 disc brake - 4-5 k
brake pads - 1k
brakes pot - 2 pc front combi and rear single pot 4k +2 k
CBS 3 k the module which controls combi brake
brake harness 3 pc5 pc, 2 to CBS 3 output - 3k
brake lever 3k since they are with brake fluid tanks
display - 12-18k
PCB for display - 5-9k depends on the chipset
seat 2k
storage unit - 2k
rear panel 2 painted 4k
PSM motor 40k with the controller mostly I think Siemens brand
“Correction Mahle Motor”
14s20p or 14p 18650 cells for 450 and 14s 10p 21700 cells each costs 700rs retail so in
bulk at least 400-500 for 18650 and 500-600 for 21700 that would come around 46800 my bare minimum
then comes custom BMS 6 to 12k depending on the configuration
all black plastics around 6-8 k
rear tail light which if you break 3500(don’t ask how) so the cost must be 2000-2500
Full aluminum chassis around 20k
tires 2 2000
Lady saree guard 400
all the 1000 screws - 600-2000
rear grab handle 600
Side stand 800
and the wiring harness with sockets and other things like connectors and switches 10000 to 15000
considering everything comes in bulK you can decrease 10%
and some parts I left out like the case for battery pack getting software specification certificates testing the scooter for IRDA transportation charges and much more
comes to almost 2lac
I remember @tarun said in one of the Owners meet that they are making a huge loss in making 450s because the plant is small and manufacturing cost is much high then they sell it to the customer that is why 450s was dropped
but if they make 1 lac on a scooter then Ather would beat every scooter Manufacturer in the next 10 years making almost 100 cr every year
