New Ather 450 Apex: Performance and Range
The upcoming Ather 450 Apex will introduce a new Warp+ riding mode. As the name suggests, it will likely be the most powerful electric scooter after the 450X and 450S. The current e-scooters come with Eco, Ride, Sport, and Warp modes.
Further, the 450 Apex could get the same 3.7kWh battery pack as the 450X, however, it is expected to feature a more powerful electric motor exceeding the power output of 6.4kW of the 450X, resulting, a quicker 0-40kmph acceleration compared to the 3.3 seconds of the 450X. The e-scooter might also boast a higher top speed of 100kmph as against 90kmph of its sibling. On the flip side, its performance-focussed character could affect the range. For example, the 450X has a certified range of 150km, while the true range is 110km.
New Ather 450 Apex: Features and Specifications
The new Ather 450 Apex is expected to come equipped with all the features available with the 450X, including a few additions, such as advanced regen, cruise control, and crawl control. It is likely to keep features, such as an auto-hold function, OTA updates, Ather connect services, and a single disc setup at both ends.
New Ather 450 Apex: Price
The upcoming 450 Apex is likely to attract a higher premium of Rs 15,000-25,000 over the 450X, which, with a 3.7kWh and 2.9kWh battery packs, cost Rs 1,44,921 and Rs 1,37,999 (both ex-showroom, Bangalore) respectively. On the other hand, the 450S is priced at Rs 1,29,999 (ex-showroom).
