Ather Energy 450X specifications and features
Every figure from the manufacturer's sheet, plus what each feature actually does for you.
Motor, battery and charging
The 450X's 6.4 kW motor is the 11rd most powerful among the 21 electric scooters here and takes it to a top speed of 90 km/h, comfortable for city and arterial roads.
A full charge from a home socket takes about 5.5 hours, and it supports fast charging for a quicker top-up on the road. The battery is fixed, so you need a plug where the scooter parks.

Features, and why each matters
Grouped by what they do for you. Underlined items link to a plain-English explainer.
Safety and braking
Front disc brake
Sheds heat and works when wet. Worth the small premium over a drum on any commuter.
Rear disc brake
Adds feel and fade resistance at the back; matters more on heavier or faster bikes.
Chassis
Alloy wheels
Lighter than spoked wheels and they allow tubeless tyres.
Console and connectivity
Colour TFT console
Readable in direct sun and can show turn-by-turn navigation.
Turn-by-turn navigation
Directions on the console via the phone app. Saves mounting a phone on the bars.
Convenience
Under-seat storage
Whether a full-face helmet fits is the question to ask at the showroom.
Electric
Recovers a little charge when slowing and saves brake pads.
Companion app
Charge status, location and ride stats on your phone.
Over-the-air updates
Software features and fixes arrive without a service visit.
Hill hold
Holds the brakes on a slope for a moment so you do not roll back at a signal.
Cruise control
Holds a set speed on open roads. Mostly a highway feature.
Public or home fast charger support cuts a full charge from overnight to an hour or two.

450X specs: questions people ask
- How long does the 450X take to charge?
- About 5.5 hours for a full charge from a home socket, with fast charging available for quicker top-ups.
- Is the 450X suitable for short riders?
- Yes. Seat height is 780 mm, low for the class, so riders around 5'2" and above can reach the ground comfortably.

- A full charge from a standard home socket takes around 5-6 hours on the 3.7 kWh battery, while an Ather Grid fast charger point can get you to a meaningful top-up in under an hour. If you don't have Grid access nearby, plan around overnight home charging.
