Ather Energy expands its presence by adding a new retail space in Nagpur, Maharashtra. This marks the company’s 4th experience centre in the state and 28th across the country. The three cities in the state where Ather has its presence are Mumbai, Pune and Nashik. Given the growing demand for electric scooters in the markets, Ather is expanding its network very rapidly.
The showroom is now officially open, and interested customers can also get a first-hand experience of both the 450X and 450 Plus. Customers can book their test ride slots by visiting Ather Energy’s official website. This new showroom located at Dharampeth, Nagpur, will help boost sales for Ather Energy. The ex-showroom price post the Fame II revision for the Ather 450X is INR 128,321 and INR 109,311 for the Ather 450 Plus in Nagpur.
Ather Grid’s Current Status
To support the proliferation of electric scooters in the market, it is important to set up a viable and robust charging infrastructure. Ather Grid, as the company likes to call its charging network, is growing at a steady pace. In Nagpur, the company has set up a fast-charging point at the showroom itself. Furthermore, the company will add more than 4 to 5 points across the city. The target by the end of FY22 is to set up over 500 Ather Grids across the country. Ather Grid is free to use for all-electric two-wheelers and wheelers until the end of June 2022.
Plans For The Future
Currently, Ather Energy has its presence in over 23 cities with a total of 27 retail stores. And by the end of March 2023, the company aims to have its network in 100 cities with over 150 experience centres. To support the growing demand, Ather Energy recently commissioned its second manufacturing plant. Located in Hosur, this will help expand the business and keep up with the growing demand. With the addition of this second manufacturing facility, Ather’s annual capacity will rise from 120,000 units per annum to 400,000 units.
