2025 Ather 450 Series: Key Details

There are no notable design changes on the updated model. It, however, gets 2 new colours- Hyper Sand and Stealth Blue. These are available across the portfolio. The 2025 450X and 450 Apex also get traction control with 3 different modes- Rain, Road, and Rally.

The new electric scooter range also gets the Magic Twist feature. This lets the rider use the throttle to both accelerate and decelerate. A normal twist will make the vehicle accelerate while a reverse twist will activate aggressive regen and make the scooter decelerate. This is more or less a ‘single pedal riding’ tech.

Another change is the new Operating System- the Atherstack 6. It now features improved Google Maps, Alexa integration, and supports WhatsApp notifications. The 450 Series now comes with MRF Zapper N e-tread tyres.

The new range continues to be powered by 2.9 kWh and 3.7 kWh battery packs. But these now offer higher range figures than before. The 450S comes just with the 2.9 kWh battery pack and delivers up to 105 km of true range in Smart Eco mode. This is 15 km more than the old scooter.
