Ather has begun deliveries of its Rizta family scooter just a few weeks after we reported that the company has begun its production.
- Rizta is the entry point to Ather's line-up
- Ather banking on Rizta for widespread appeal
- Rizta uses same battery as 450 models
Ather Rizta deliveries, price, range details
For now, deliveries of the Ather Rizta have begun in Ahmedabad, Pune, Delhi, Lucknow, Agra, Jaipur, Nagpur, and across Andhra Pradesh. Ather tells us that deliveries from the rest of its dealer network will follow soon.
Ather achieved success in the Indian market due to its sporty and tech-laden 450 models. The Rizta uses the same main frame, battery pack, motor, displays and switchgear as the 450s, but they have been re-engineered to have a more widespread appeal.

Bajaj also recently expanded the Chetak line-up with a sub-Rs 1 lakh variant and to read more about that, tap here.
