The company has already started accepting pre-bookings for this much-anticipated electric vehicle (EV) on its official website. Prospective buyers can secure their booking with a nominal fee of Rs. 999. Take a look at everything we know about the upcoming all-electric scooter.
Ather Rizta: A family-friendly scooter with spacious seating
The Ather Rizta is designed as a family-friendly scooter, featuring a larger seat than its predecessor, the Ather 450X. The CEO of Ather Energy has stated that Rizta's seat will be the most spacious in the market. Additionally, it is expected to offer ample underseat storage space. For comparison, the Ather 450 range provides a 22-liter storage compartment.
The e-scooter showcases impressive water wading and durability
In a recent promotional video, Ather Energy demonstrated the Rizta's impressive water-wading capacity as it navigated through approximately 1.3ft of water. The robustness of the scooter's battery was also showcased in a teaser video, where it survived a drop from a height equivalent to a four-story building without any damage.

Alongside the launch of the Rizta, Ather Energy plans to release its new Atherstack 6 Over-The-Air (OTA) update. The company will also unveil a smart accessory named 'Halo,' which is speculated to be a smart helmet.
