India’s first ‘smart’ scooter set to launch soon

Automobiles of tomorrow will operate at the intersection of connectivity, data and intelligence. Big data will add a new dimension to the evolution of performance and safety aspects. But the next big leap in automobiles would be driven by the vehicle’s ability to connect to the larger eco-system as well as leveraging data for vehicle level optimization and delivering a personalized & intuitive ride experience. 



Ather Energy is all set to enter this phase of automobile evolution with the launch of its smart scooter the S340. It will debut at SURGE on Feb 23. Ather has built a high speed electric scooter – with a powerful Li-ion battery pack and sub-one hour charging.

In an ecosystem dominated by software players, Ather Energy is among the few hardware start-ups in India. Their first product, the S340 is completely designed in-house and will commence commercial production in Bengaluru later this year. The company has received funding from Tiger Global, Flipkart founders Sachin & Binny Bansal.
