That’s a decent list and we enjoyed the possibilities of OTA. If TVS or Bajaj has given these, they have over-delivered. But, for Ather owners, we deserve more
To be honest, there was lot of hype and expectations on the OTAs during the initial months. But, as time passed, we all had to accept the fact that new features are long and far between.
It is not about feasibility. Because, many requests posted here are very much doable and some are simple. But, I feel Ather chose not to focus their efforts much here.
Major misses which were pending for long long time:
Stronger / Custom Regen
Battery % during Navigation
Regen Indicator
Hazard Light
Traffic Status on Navigation
Custom Charging thresholds
Fix lag in turns on Road vs Map
Battery Health
Real-time Efficiency
Improve Charge loss during Idle & Shut-down
Electricity Consumption
Rider Profiles
Temperature
Trip Efficiency for Current Ride
To give a perspective, in these 2 years, @abhishek.balaji has transformed from Prospective Owner -> Ather Owner -> Ather Community Manager
Honestly, even letting us see the Wh/Km while riding is an easy thing to implement and it would help a lot to monitor efficiency since a real-time efficiency graph or indication probably isn’t going to happen
I remember someone from the Ather team saying that they were very close to doing this. And this was in the last owners meet. Pre covid in Bangalore. Over a year ago.
Well, I did not know about the X. You got a pretty decent deal
For the roadmap, please pick the features which are already requested. Many feature requests are model agnostic, not just for Ather 450.
You could create a poll and prioritise based on the votes… If you guys are thinking of a feature that’s not listed here, include that in the poll as well.
please provide an option of shutdown by default when key turned off
battery idle drain is very high on my loaner battery as well
if this was requested already (am sure someone must have) please advise how likely it is going to come in coming updates…
Hi Team, please provide child lock option for dashboard. My kid standing in front keeps changing screens and modes as well. Family Man’s request. The lock option should not stop us from changing modes using short cuts as usual.
Suggesting an electronic braking for slopes. Pure Ev implements this with their hub motor even as an immobilizer, so this could be a possibility for “park” in Ather.
all the points shoots here are good,but i felt the regenerative brake indication is must to be a very worthy point,more over this cluster glass quality needs high durability because its cost around 20K
