Ather launches Rizta family scooter in Nepal
Ather Energy has launched its electric scooter, the Rizta, in Nepal, marking the next phase of its international expansion strategy. Nepal was Ather's first overseas market, with the company debuting there in November 2023 through the Ather 450 series. Since then, Ather has established 9 Experience Centres and 6 Service Centres in the country, operated by its national distributor, Vaidya Energy. The brand has also installed 22 Ather Grid fast chargers to support EV adoption. 'With the launch of the Rizta, we are tapping into a new segment of family buyers who prioritise comfort and convenience in their everyday rides,' said Ravneet Singh Phokela, Chief Business Officer, Ather Energy. 'We are hoping to see the same strong response for the Rizta as we've seen for the 450 series.' The Rizta features a spacious 56-litre storage capacity, including 34 litres under the seat and an optional 22-litre front trunk (frunk), the company statement added. Across India, the company operates 446 Experience Centres and has deployed nearly 4,000 charging points nationwide, reinforcing its position as a leading EV player in the region.
