About the company
Company website•Motor Vehicle Manufacturing
Ather Energy was started in 2013 by Tarun Mehta and Swapnil Jain, two engineering graduates straight out of college with the audacity to dream and challenge the well-established Internal Combustion Engine (ICE) and replace it with an electric drive.
We built India’s first smart and connected electric scooters, the Ather 450 product line, because we believe that's where the future of personal mobility is headed.
Ather is one of the few companies in India, specifically within the automotive industry, to have products and services that amalgamate clean design and engineering - Hardware and software.
Today, our product offerings include the Ather Rizta, Ather 450X, Ather 450S, Public and Private charging Infrastructure, Accessories and Merch, and innovative ownership plans. We are also building a complete ecosystem for India’s electric vehicles - powered by indigenous design and all locally manufactured.
