The scooter is equipped with alloy wheels, suggesting the use of tubeless tires, and a front disc brake. However, it remains uncertain whether the scooter will adopt a hub-mounted motor or a belt-driven one, given that Ather’s current lineup employs belt-driven motors. Ather emphasizes that affordability is a key consideration for the new scooter, positioning it as a direct competitor to the TVS iQube.

While the current 450 series is positioned at a relatively higher price point compared to other electric scooters in the Indian market, it stands out for its robust build quality, impressive performance, rich features, and excellent handling. The 450 series is often regarded as one of the top choices for enthusiasts in the electric scooter segment.
