Ather Rizta

Looking for the perfect electric scooter for your family? Meet the Ather Rizta, a smart and spacious EV built just for Indian households. Whether you’re heading to the grocery store, dropping your kids off at school, or simply riding around town, the Rizta offers comfort, safety, and convenience—all in one sleek package. You can check it out at an Ather showroom near you or visit the nearest Ather showroom in Chennai.

Designed with Families in Mind

The Rizta looks different from Ather’s earlier models. That’s because it’s made for family use. It has:

  • A longer and wider seat
  • A flat floorboard for extra foot space
  • More legroom for taller riders
  • Plenty of room for pillion riders and kids

The under-seat storage is large enough to fit a full-face helmet, school bags, or even some light shopping. It’s built for daily errands and weekend rides alike.

Two Variants to Choose From

You get to choose between two main models:

  • Ather Rizta S – Comes with a 2.9 kWh battery
  • Ather Rizta Z – Comes with a 2.9 kWh or 3.7 kWh battery option

The top model offers a range of up to 160 km on a full charge, perfect for longer daily use without frequent recharging.

Performance Made for City Life

The Ather Rizta isn’t about racing—it’s about smooth, stress-free commuting. You get:

  • A top speed of 80 km/h
  • Quick acceleration for city traffic
  • A quiet belt drive system
  • Comfortable suspension for bumpy roads

It’s a great choice for riders of all ages, especially if you’re new to electric scooters.

Smart Safety Features for Peace of Mind

Ather has added features to make every ride safer:

  • SkidControl™ – Keeps you from slipping on wet or dusty roads
  • Emergency Stop Signals – Alerts others when you brake hard
  • Side Stand Sensor – Prevents the scooter from starting if the stand is down

These small but powerful features make the Rizta a reliable and family-safe scooter.
