Panaji next after Indore​:grinning::grinning:

Sure :joy:. When I got the email for this reply, the mail was titled Abishek… So I thought Abhishek has some update for us. But nothing. :crossed_fingers:t2::crossed_fingers:t2::crossed_fingers:t2:

When was Trichy announced on the list of cities? I couldn’t find its announcement and the test rides are starting tomorrow.

announcement is normal everything its relied on the dealer who tooked dealership every push and sale on time on dealers hand only otherwise it will be a greatest humour

waiting waiting waiting for the Panaji… never have i been so excited (barring GoT S8) for months to pass fast… lol

And 2 grid points too. Surprising.
Seems to be a result of a very enthusiastic Dealer.

Right. I didn’t see it being announced. I felt that that my City would be next if the list was being followed. Or any other city. Been a bummer. But good for Trichy.

What is the latest on Ather Kozhikode showroom? Two grids already up in the most prominent locations.

Mind sharing where the grid is located? I will try to get the info online though…

Great to see New Delhi Batch 1 sold out. I think the truck should make a " strategic and scheduled"stop in Indore. You know, refuelling,some checking and a delivery. :wink:

Considering that the factory is in Hosur. It makes sense for them to open up shop in Coimbatore, Trichy, Mysore and Hubli/Dharwad before really moving north, even though indore, Nagpur are much bigger markets . It’s a 3/4 day truck ride to delhi and Trichy is just a few hours away from the factory.
But I bet they’re going to expand to more cities soon. I don’t think they’re getting the demand they expected. At least in Bangalore seems like the sales has dropped a bit. More markets they get into. More the surge in sales they get. Because let’s face it the 450X market is a bit of niche market in every city.

True. Fingers crossed :crossed_fingers:t2: Delhi is sure a 3-4 day truck ride. One must make sure everything is okay so a stop is advisable.

I did think that BLR demand might mute a bit with X. Instead sales are up 200% than pre-COVID levels. Vaahan data has some lag and has some missing pieces also. BLR alone has grown 20% month on month since X launched.

South currently has more awareness of Ather so cities open up faster here. But generally cities are opening everywhere so wouldn’t worry really.

The number of 450s on the road are doing their marketing :sweat_smile:.
Fuel prices + maybe increased personal mobilty.
I suppose Bangalore is a bit richer than I thought it was :sweat_smile:. More takers for the X than the 450. Interesting. I assumed everyone who was willing to buy a premium scooter already had a 450 in Bangalore. Seems like you guys have tapped into a bigger audience. The TV, News paper ads and marketting has paid off I suppose and the sudden surge of 450s just before the launch of X have all porbably widened the market for Ather.
