The cities that have been added to the list are Mysore, Hubli, Jaipur, Indore, Panaji, Bhubaneshwar, Nasik, Surat, Chandigarh, Vijayawada, Visakhapatnam, Guwahati, Nagpur, Noida, Lucknow and Siliguri.
Ather says it has received overwhelming demand for its products and numerous dealership requests. This has led the company to include these new markets in Phase 2 of their expansion. Ather Energy says it is now fast tracking its plans to meet the national demand for its electric scooter and by March 2021, the Ather 450X will be available across 27 cities in India. Many in these new cities are also eligible for the limited-edition Series 1 vehicle, as they placed orders in January 2020 before the official launch of the new product line.
The EV maker says it will open up retail presence in these cities in a staggered manner by Q1 2021 and will begin by setting up test rides to let consumers experience the vehicle. It has also been talking to prospective retail partners in these markets and has already begun locating spaces to set up its fast EV charging network, Ather Grid. Ather says that in the 11 markets that it is already present in, more than 60 charging points are already installed with more in the pipeline.
Ravneet Singh Phokela, chief business officer, Ather Energy said, “We are really excited about adding 16 new markets and we look forward to establishing ourselves in these cities in the coming months. This expansion is the result of the strong demand from the consumers, dealerships and also, the test ride requests that we have received since the launch of Ather 450X. Ather Energy has always strived to build futuristic electric two-wheelers which boast of superior technology and innovative solutions to make the switch to electric easier for the consumers. We aim to introduce Ather products across the country and fulfil the needs of consumers by providing a premium offering.”
