Ather Energy has launched a new variant of its popular family scooter—the Rizta S with a 3.7 kWh battery pack. Priced at INR 1,37,047 (ex-showroom, Delhi), the new model delivers an IDC-certified range of 159 km, making it the most capable Rizta yet in terms of distance per charge.

This launch comes on the heels of the Rizta crossing the 1 lakh unit sales milestone, a feat achieved within just a year of its debut in 2024. The Rizta now accounts for over 60% of Ather’s total sales, underlining its strong appeal among Indian families.

Design and practicality

Despite the larger battery, the Rizta S 3.7 kWh retains the same family-friendly design that defines the lineup. Key highlights include:

  • 34-litre underseat storage, expandable by 22 litres with an optional Frunk
  • One of the longest seats in the segment, designed for rider and pillion comfort
  • Flat floorboard and ergonomic handlebar positioning for daily usability

The scooter is available in multiple colour options and continues to offer a clean, minimalist aesthetic that appeals to urban commuters.

Features and connectivity

The Rizta S 3.7 kWh is loaded with smart features, including:

  • 7-inch DeepView display with turn-by-turn navigation
  • AutoHold, Fall Safe, Emergency Stop Signal
  • Tow and Theft Alerts, Find My Scooter
  • Alexa Skills integration and OTA update support

It also connects to Ather’s Grid fast-charging network, which now spans over 3,900 points across India, and includes a home charging solution for overnight top-ups.

Warranty and ownership experience

Buyers can opt for Ather’s Eight70 warranty programme, which offers:

  • 8 years or 80,000 km coverage
  • Guaranteed minimum 70% battery health over the ownership period

The Rizta S 3.7 kWh is available for test rides and bookings across Ather’s retail network and online platform. Deliveries are expected to begin this month.
