Ather Energy is set to unveil highly anticipated model, the 450 Apex on January 6, 2024 while the bookings have already started on their website

Notably, enthusiasts can already secure their spot in line as bookings for this electric scooter have begun, with deliveries slated to kick off in March 2024.

Ather 450 Apex: Performance and Range Expectations

The star feature of the upcoming Ather 450 Apex is the introduction of the new Warp+ riding mode. Positioned to be the most potent electric scooter in Ather’s lineup, surpassing the capabilities of the existing 450X and 450S models, the 450 Apex promises an exhilarating ride. As with its predecessors, the 450 Apex will offer a range of riding modes, including Eco, Ride, Sport, and the all-new Warp+.

450 Apex Battery Specifications

Anticipations are high that the 450 Apex will share the same 3.7kWh battery pack as the 450X, but with a twist. Expectations point toward a more robust electric motor, exceeding the impressive 6.4kW power output of the 450X.

This enhancement is poised to deliver a swift 0-40kmph acceleration, outpacing the 3.3 seconds of its predecessor. Additionally, the 450 Apex may boast an increased top speed of 100kmph, compared to the 90kmph top speed of the 450X.

However, the trade-off for this performance boost might be a potential impact on the range. For context, the 450X boasts a certified range of 150km, with the actual range standing at 110km.

Apex Features

The Ather 450 Apex is anticipated to inherit all the advanced features of the 450X, with a few noteworthy additions. Enthusiasts can look forward to advanced regen, cruise control, and crawl control, enhancing the overall riding experience.

The scooter is expected to retain key features like auto-hold function, OTA updates, Ather connect services, and a reliable single disc setup at both ends.

Pricing Mystery

While the official pricing is yet to be revealed, industry experts speculate that the Ather 450 Apex may command a premium ranging between Rs 15,000-25,000 over the 450X.

For context, the 450X, equipped with 3.7kWh and 2.9kWh battery packs, is currently priced at Rs 1,44,921 and Rs 1,37,999 (both ex-showroom, Bangalore) respectively. In comparison, the 450S holds a price tag of Rs 1,29,999 (ex-showroom).

Conclusion

As the countdown to the Ather 450 Apex launch continues, anticipation and excitement reach new heights. Ather Energy’s commitment to pushing the boundaries of electric mobility is evident in the promises of enhanced performance and cutting-edge features.
