There are many cool features in this scooter. The Ather 450 do a sprint from 0-40km/hr in 3.9secs. The scooter gets a low center of gravity with the floor-mounted lithium-ion battery pack. This creates a 50:50 weight distribution that helps in the overall handling of the bike. There is a progressive mono-shock suspension for a softer response on bumps and comfort on bad roads. The power pack has a high capacity for range, high power output for quick acceleration and speed, a long life, and fast-charging.
