also am thinking to buy charging cable and take my mom to the hill some day
please if someone have ever been there let me know if there are any electric plug points you have noticed which are easily reachable/accessible (have never been there)
will give test ride to people who allow me to charge on the hill…
@Ather.Team. strong regen please… will help in down hill ride
I have not used the vehicle much hardly 75 km so far, my expected range displayed is 60 in eco mode, may be I need to use a bit more inorder to know the exact range I am going to get. I have two questions to the owners 1- how is the seating comfortablity? I feel little uncomfortable keep sliding down while braking. 2- the vehicle belt sound, there is a belt cranking sound when the vehicle starts moving.
Other one that I am happy with the vehicle.
regarding seat-i cannot complain much… atleast me because am 6".2’ … even if i ride any other regular scooter ill have to sit on seat in an awkward place, so i cannot answer that question… but definitely i don’t have any complain
belt sound is there for all scooters but only at low speeds but when u r cruising at good speeds it shouldn’t be an issue
yes i would like it to be fixed by finding some engineering solution…(by Ather anyway)
Thank you. Ather team is it possible for you to provide switchable regen strength, which can be utilised by the rider if he is coming down from hilly areas like Nandi hills
Thanks a lot Shreyas (also to all the future owner’s)
i have been making few observations which am sharing all the time on the forum… which at-least interested are updated…
I know you guys are working hard to bring the best experience to us - which might take time but it will be good if we can provide updates ASAP (as u may know already)
may i request you to please update on priorities which Ather is working currently - may be via newsletter (as not all are on the forum or not active on the forum at-least newsletter will take their attention)
one last request please let me know if the team is working battery stats ( percentage % left, Current Consumption E.g- 100kw/h and battery temperature) - i know that they are planning some UI similar to speed but am interested to know if team can accommodate above instead
display on the dashboard of vehicle… this will help me a lot.
also i Know you are working on algorithm which gives prediction which will improve in time but can we at-least have an option to choose between the 2 (Battery % and Range left) in dashboard settings…just in case if you (Ather) wouldn’t want to display both at the same time…
Thats very generous of you mate! If you can drive around the Central Business District, like Avenue Road, BVK Iyengar Road around morning or evening peak hours like 5:30-6 to 7 would be great.
It has both a combination of stop gap traffic and bad roads but it does not let you rest in between, so consumes lots of fuel on conventional ICE vehicles, your experience on the Ather would be invaluable.
Hi Abhishek, I would like to try it out with you once with my Chinese EV. It’s all experiments. Let’s go to Nandi hills and back with one more ICE scooter as backup if we run into issues or couldn’t find charging point. I believe coming down hill will be negligible battery consumption as EV won’t drain battery if we don’t use acceleration. And regeneration would help too.
both Ather dashboard navigation and google were trying to serve me better pointing different directions to second point
now am confused
took a second to think and decided to follow google maps on my mobile
and now the real surprise to me
i am not sure if those roads/lane will qualify to call as footpath even but there are so many business which are active in these lanes and people are literally every ware and appears it is pretty common for them
wish i could have taken video but it is hard to hold mobile in these lanes
So how many KMs did you travel totally and how much did Ather actually promise in the beginning?
Is there a difference between what Ather shows and Ather actually delivered in this travel since there was heavy traffic?

I am sure you will have few of the guys in @Ather.Team really worried and chewing away their nails!! I am also sure they are gonna have a Monday morning huddle on this topic and probably going through your “flight’s” telemetry over and over again !!
