Just got my Ather EV last week and I'm already obsessed! This is my first EV purchase and I couldn't be happier with my decision @atherenergy #ElectricVehicles

I've already rode 300+kms on it and I couldn't be happier. The Ather EV is so easy to handle and the acceleration is amazing, making it a lot of fun to ride around town.

I was surprised to get the exact range that was mentioned on the box and sometimes beyond that on their respective modes. Also, the top speed of 90km/h on the Warp mode is so convenient to get it on the highways, no surprises with that.

One of my favourite things about the Ather EV is the convenience of the Ather Grid charging network. I can charge my vehicle for just 10 minutes and get another 15 km out of it. And with over 60+ charging points in Chennai alone, I never have to worry about running out of charge.

The reverse gear and auto hold on the Ather EV has been a real useful feature though I thought it might not be that useful at first. It's especially useful when I park on roadsides with higher elevations. No more stressing about holding the brake at a red light.

The trip planner on the Ather EV is also super useful. It calculates the battery percentage and shows exactly what to expect on the trip and what percentage will I be left with after the end of the trip also with multiple destinations, helping me plan my rides more efficiently.

I also have to give a shoutout to the incredible community on the Ather forum. They have been more helpful and responsive than the Ather support team itself. It's amazing to see such a passionate and supportive community around this amazing product! #CommunityLove

Overall, I can't stress enough how great the Ather EV is. For me, it was a game-changer, and I can't wait to see where our future travels will lead us. Do yourself a favour and look into the Ather if you're looking for an EV in Chennai. You won't regret it, I promise!

While the Ather EV is an excellent product, the company's showroom and delivery experience could be improved. With so many orders, Ather is unable to keep up with demand. Customers may be better satisfied if this area is improved.

While the Ather Grid is convenient and simple to use, it may be improved by offering additional information to users. The grid, for example, should show how many other users are waiting to charge and when a current user's battery will be charged to 80%.

While few may consider 80% charging cut-off as a disadvantage, it actually benefits more people. As it can now accommodate more users & reduce wait times by cutting off charging at 80%. This is a plus for anyone who needs to fast charge their vehicle and get on with their day.
