    The Ather 450X is available in two variants: Plus and 'X' priced at Rs 1,27,916 and Rs 1,46,926 (ex-showroom, Delhi). The 450X is the most powerful electric scooter on sale in India. The Bajaj Chetak premium variant on the other hand retails for Rs 1.20 lakh (ex-showroom).
    The Ather 450X 0-60kmph acceleration time is 6.94 seconds, which makes it quicker than the BS6 Suzuki Access and the TVS NTorq 125. Powering the 450X electric scooter is a 2.9kWh motor producing 6kW of power. We were able to achieve a range of 91km and a top speed of 90km on the 450X. It takes about 5hrs and 45mins to full charge the Ather 450X via a home charger. Fast charging however, will have a charge time of 1.45km/min.
    Features on the electric scooter includes Bluetooth, 4G connectivity, ANdroid operating system, reverse mode and navigation. The Ather 450X competes against the Bajaj Chetak and the TVS iQube electric scooters in India.
    #ather #atherbadservice #atherscam#AtherElectricScooter #AtherElectric
    The electric scooter launched in two variants - the Ola S1 which will be available in five colours and the Ola S1 Pro, a more powerful variant that will be available in 10 colours. These include Red, Sky Blue, Yellow, Silver, Gold, Pink, Black, Navy Blue, Grey and White. The two models will be available for purchase this September and deliveries are set to begin in October.
    The Ola S1 starts at Rs 99,999 and the S1 Pro starts at Rs 1,29,999. The Ola S1 packs a 2.9kWh battery pack and delivers 8.5kW peak power. The battery can be charged in about 6 hours with a 750W portable charger or up to 50% using an Ola Supercharger in just 18 minutes.

      They really ripped you off specially on the rotor issue. Its not an issue with those light scratches that you showed. You only needed to replace the pads, the rortor replacement at that stage is unnecessary. I have seen worse scarring on rotors and they work perfectly fine.
      Rear Brake pads are ByBRE single piston caliper pads. Probably any of the Bajaj motorcycle rear disc pads.

    My Ather's Rear disc pad has worn out unevenly. Rear left side pad has worn out and Rear Right pad has around 15 -20 % . Uneven wear is from a new vehicle is completely strange. Purchased replacement pads from Bajaj showroom same from Bybre. Its has costed around Rs. 220
    Purchased Front pads to keep it in stock with Hero Motocorp packaging same Bybre pads costed around Rs. 420.

    This issue of braking is going to be common on electric vehicles. Coz the motor torque is very high, so braking power required is more. So brake pads are going to be an issue for any electric vehicle. I would recommend not to use the high acceleration modes on any electric vehicle in traffic. Constant acceleration and deceleration using brakes is going to be hard on the brakes. On IC engine vehicles, on bikes we get clutch to control power and use brakes to decelerate. Below quality brakes are another issue. You issue could be a combination of all. I have booked a tvs iqube , it has drum brakeson rear , I have to seriously change my riding style now.

    @gauravtatkar4386 Рік тому +5

    Hi Pradeep,
    Fully agree with regarding the service experience they gave you. However regarding the disc pads, after using Ather for sometime I realized that Ather has Zero regen or braking even when you stop accelerating it still keeps on zooming through smoothly. Result of which we tend to apply a lot more brakes compared to any other normal bike. I feel this could be one of the reasons for disc pads to wear off lot earlier than expected. In most other EV's strong regen is used which almost starts braking your vehicle as soon as you leave accelerator. I felt that was annoying as you need to keep on accelerating all the time and its hurts your hands after some time.

    Brake pads depends on braking style too dude. If there are more complete and sudden brakes, they wear off soon. If there's mostly smooth breaking, it uses up regenerative braking. It wears the pads less. At the end of the day, it all depends on ride style and Rider's braking style.
    Part shortage, I get it. It's bad. But breakpad wear, depends on Rider's and breaking conditions.

This pad is just base metal which ground off the rotor. Possibility is a faulty brake system that does not retract properly, or inferior quality.

  • @ShankarMurugesan
    @ShankarMurugesan 2 роки тому +4

    Reason 1:-
    If dirt gets on to the surface, and sticks there, then a pad will hit the dirt whenever it hits the rotor. For example, if your rotor's surface develops a problem, then your brake pads might suffer because they aren't hitting a smooth surface. If the rotor has worn or rusty patches, then it will lose some of its smoothness. If a pad hits a rough surface or even a tiny dirt obstruction, then it gets minor damage whenever you brake. Its surface rubs away on the uneven part, which can accelerate wear.
    Reason 2:-
    Sometimes, pads wear down too quickly because your calipers don’t work correctly. Calipers push pads against the rotor to initiate braking. If a caliper jams or sticks, then it might leave the pad on the surface for longer than necessary. The pad will wear down more quickly because it stays on the rotor for too long.
    Best practices:- Try keeping your disc clean as far as possible to get the most out of it.

    • @VivekSingh-nl6hs
      @VivekSingh-nl6hs 2 роки тому +1

    Hey Brother I really love your videos but I have my very own doubts with what you said, I essentially agree that the cost of the brake pads and the entire servicing was high.
    But can you tell us how fast did you reach 5000kms on your ather?
    Because here's a thing, I don't own dominor, but I own a hornet. I have an extensive use and have completed 30000km in one year itself.
    I got it last year and that piece of shit has cost me alot of money even with free services.
    Brake pads I had to replace every 3000km. I got them fixed externally always and it used to cost me 600 for front and back combined. So a total of 6000 as I changed them almost ten times.
    I had to change the oil every 3000km so again changed it 10 times and that summed up to 3500INR.
    Now talking about the filters, I spent around 1000 bucks in the same in the last year.
    Additionally for my very own commuting I am paying 4000inr in petrol every month which comes to around 48000 additional and last but not the least I have spent around off 2000 rs in labor.
    So I got the bike for 1.6lakhs, spend 60000 more on it(inclusive of petrol) to commute almost 60-70km a day.
    This is additional cost of 5000 per month on my Hornet just to keep it going.
    Even now since my first service year is over, even in the local area the servicing Labor charges are around 500-800 and material additional.
    Which will in turn sum up to 1200-1500rs.
    Now while talking about ather you just got bill for 1200-2000 bucks that too after 5000km.
    And the over all cost incurred per month in comparison to a bike worth same amount is like 10 times less so why crib so much about paying up for service?
    So what if we have to pay the same amount for service there are same number of electronic chip sets involved but why this issue with paying up for service? It's a thing that helps you save almost 50k in a year and cribbing about a service and parts worth 1k?
    I mean koi sense hai is baat ki?

      @@charlespink6126 Thanks brother. Let's see what @Pradeep on Wheels has to say about this. I am hoping to get his explanation on this one.
      I like his honest review and get his frustration but it's ironic on how we are okay with spending 3-4k (inclusive of petrol)every month on the normal ic engine two wheelers but nag about just 1200 rs of serving when it comes to electric two wheelers.
      I personally come from a field of production and automobile so I know the cost that ather is charging is somewhere inflated but also justified as they can't match the quantum yet which makes us feel this but honestly that's okay compared to how much we spend on the ic engine two wheelers.

    • @dixidm310
      @dixidm310 2 роки тому

      Looking beyond the cost issue, there still is the lack of customer care seen from the way the branches refuse to communicate with eachother to get the required parts for a customer, and on top of that the uncleaned vehicle and not paying attention to the customer request to charge it will cause any customer to question having to pay the amount of money for labor. Ofcourse you cannot expect an IC engine service centre to refuel your vehicle but the fuel infrastructure is not a problem so it can be managed.
      My 150cc Vespa gives me a total charge of under Rs.2000 per service every 4k kms. That's with way more moving parts than this vehicle. So the frustration is understandable..

      ather is extremely cheap to maintain, they have service plan 2400 per year, if we take that subscription you don't need pay for services or brake pads( all included in 2400 per year)
      Even we can activate this plan 1day before going to service

      Also is your first bike?
      Man you have spent so much on your bike just for regular parts.
      If it's related to engine and others then the amount might be more...
      Also please search for alternative OEMs for the pads that suit your bike. Avoid original pads/rotor/any such parts from Honda as they cost you a bomb.
      Ex: Disc pads of Karizma costs a bomb while the RTR160 pads perfectly suits for ZMA with much much lesser price.

    I suppose Ola:s home delivery coffee shop may be better. With regen braking you should get much longer service on your brakes. There must be an issue with the self adjusters that is adding drag on the brakes and reducing your range. I have heard Ather is making money on service. May be like printers where they subsidize the box and rob you on the ink. May want to learn to make your own coffee. I prefer the ola model which says no service, and just part maintenance which are monitored in the bike like belt and pads. They need to add pad warning clips that whine when the pads are close to done to save the disk. You were totally ripped off. I think they assume if you can afford 1.5lac then you will pay for service even if they do nothing. An ev should not need any service. Brake pads and belts are consumables and should always be in stock.

It was a two minute work to check weather there was a loose connection or something else. But before even looking at it..they said there is no stock of boot lamps in center and come next week..the guy asked me to take a video of the light as not working and send on WhatsApp and I should remind him to get the stock on WhatsApp it seems..lol..I even reminded him but he just seen zoned my message. And I had to visit three times to get that light changed...even at the time they changed it. they were saying to drop the scooter when I went on Saturday and said it will be delivered on Monday. I insisted them to check the thing first and talk...then they said 4 hrs time...but I just waited there and it was done in less than 10 mins....they just had to remove couple of screws for boot storage and replace the lamp..and I had visit 3 times for it. And all the time I was there. I was hearing the break pad conversation with every customer and the bill. I think there is something fishy about the breakpad and service.

      I am damn sure this is a person who doesn't know how Ather was developed. The ather first scooter was 340 series. which they sold to make the enough money to upgrade the model the 350 series. and then 450 series came up. Ather is not heavily funded company like OLA. Ather came to market on their own. Infact Ather started getting profits only after 4-5 years of induction of the company. Check you facts and then comment.

      @@Yogeshvar i completely agree on you, but the issue here is simple that the service doesn't have a brake pad in stock. The person told that in a simple works. If you have heard the conversation he said you can come back latter or go to service center in dairy circle. This person is showing that the service center is completely bad. They are not customer friendly and all.

    Pradeep, really nice review, appreciate your effort in putting this content for the public to view, you shouldn't have accepted paying for the rotary, that is not your fault, and the break pad going out in 5k Km still acceptable, but not the rotary. Any way now ather is the only great EV scooter available right now, please share your feedback regularly...

    If the Ather is not giving good quality product in ~2L and due to there poor quality customer has to bare.
