Ather Rizta's battery pack teased with a 40-foot drop test! Results will shock you..
Ather's social media platforms, viewers were treated to a demonstration of the battery undergoing a rigorous 40-foot drop test. The footage culminated in the battery pack emerging unscathed, demonstrating its resilience to shocks encountered during rides over uneven terrain. While specifics such as capacity and range are still under wraps, the sleek design hints at a flat battery configuration reminiscent of the Ather 450X, potentially maximizing under-seat storage space.
Ather has tantalizingly promised the largest seat in its segment along with ample under-seat storage for the Rizta family e-scooter.A post shared by Swapnil Jain (@swapniljain89) Currently, Ather offers battery packs in 2.9 kWh and 3.7 kWh capacities, delivering certified ranges of 111 km and 150 km, respectively. Speculation abounds regarding whether the Rizta will inherit these existing battery options or if Ather will opt for a larger capacity pack to enhance the scooter's range. However, a larger battery pack inevitably translates to increased weight, posing a challenge for the engineering team.
The community eagerly awaits to see how Ather addresses this concern and caters to the needs of the family scooter market. Interestingly, the electric vehicle manufacturer has reportedly partnered with the stand-up comic artist Anubhav Singh Bassi as a part of its marketing campaign. He has recently shared a camouflaged iteration of the scooter on his social media.
As anticipation mounts, enthusiasts are advised to stay tuned for further updates as Ather gears up to unveil complete details about the Rizta early next month. The Ather Community Day promises to be an eventful affair, offering a glimpse into the future of electric mobility. Milestone Alert!
