No I am from Bangalore but we can swap anywhere
When I bought Ather 450 with full payment (instead of lease), I had decided that I will keep it for minimum of 3+ years before upgrading to anything else.
But, the main reason I pre-ordered 450X was because of 450X upgrade program for existing customers, announced during launch. That time, I really imagined Ather may bring some super good exchange program. (as good as Amazon Prime that if you donāt have a subscription you are a fool).
Now the Upgrade program is out of picture (except for the convenience, I wont be getting anything more than what I might be getting if sold thru OLX)
The second reason was to give away the pre-order offer if any of my friends decides to buy 450X. When checked with colleagues or friends, I see no interest in buying any vehicle leave alone Ather 450X (thanks to Covid).
Seeing both my reasons out of scope, I may also cancel or transfer my order here, soon.

No, I donāt want to blame Ather here. It was my purely imagination after hearing āexciting upgrade programā.

Also, I really want to know the second hand market for Ather scooters. For people who wanted to buy the 450 have already bought it. I really want to see what happens when a good number 450s (people who are interested in upgrading to 450x) come to the marketplace what is the demand and really curious about the pricing.
People who comes to second hand market to buy Ather 450 will quote aggressive pricing and I just assume 90K may be the best price for a really well maintained Ather 450 like mine 
May be after a long time, our Ather 450 may become a collector edition and we may get a premium

Fair enough. I was trying to recollect what was announced but could not recall any significant point on this and hence asked for it.

It was a āwalk in with 450 and walk out with 450xā kind of scenario. Unfortunately COVID had other plans and ruined it for us!

On the fence about it. I loved the 450x, loved the lime green color, loved the Warp mode. But I also like my 450!. Love it for never failing me and also because it works with the Gen 1 portable charger (small one) and is super useful to carry and charge at my office.
Itās a tough decision!

I have a pre-order for collectors edition (Series-1 with Order no. 27xxx) which I will not be going for. Not sure when exactly it will open for payment. I am from Bangalore, but my understanding is that it can be transferred to any location. If someone is interested, let me know.

Raghu, could you respond?
I had the exact same thought. But then, i figured, it was a question of need vs want. I really needed the 450 and Iāve come to love it. I really wanted the 450x, but the 450 does all i require and more. (If only we could get the series1 panels for our 450 haha) As a new customer, the 450x pro is the best choice you can make. But as an existing customer, IMO I donāt think the upgrade is worth shelling out so much again.

Especially when everyone who can afford a premium scooter alresdy had the 450, I wonder how many people in bangalore will buy the 450X as compared to say hyderabad or pune
