With petrol prices biting into monthly savings, many commuters are switching to electric. Ather Energy has launched the Rizta specifically for those who need a reliable, no-nonsense scooter for work, errands, and family runs without breaking the bank.
1. Practical Design
The Rizta ditches the “sporty” look for a simple, sturdy, and functional design.
- Space: It features a flat footboard (great for carrying bags) and one of the longest, widest seats in its class—making it perfect for two riders.
- Visibility: Equipped with a bright LED headlight for safe night riding.
2. Performance & Range
- Range: On a full charge, it offers approximately 123 km. This is plenty for a standard daily routine (office, school drops, and market trips).
- Charging: It supports fast charging, so you aren’t stuck waiting for hours if you’re in a hurry.
3. Smart & Safe Features
Despite being a “budget” choice, it doesn’t skimp on tech:
- Connectivity: Bluetooth, mobile app support, and turn-by-turn navigation.
- Safety: Call/Message alerts, a side-stand cut-off (to prevent accidental starts), and a Combined Braking System (CBS) for better control.
4. Built for Indian Roads
Ather has tuned the suspension to handle potholes and bumpy city streets comfortably. The braking system is designed to be responsive, which is vital for navigating heavy traffic.
Pricing & Easy Financing (EMI)
The Rizta is positioned as an affordable entry into the Ather family, with prices typically ranging between ₹1.10 Lakh and ₹1.30 Lakh (depending on the variant).
If you are considering a loan for a ₹1.20 Lakh model, here is a rough breakdown:
- 24-Month Plan: Approx. ₹5,200 – ₹5,500 per month.
- 36-Month Plan: Approx. ₹3,600 – ₹3,800 per month.
Note: Prices and EMI rates vary by city and dealership. Always check the official Ather website or visit a showroom for the most accurate quote.
