Ather Energy has launched the 2025 Ather Rizta, a family-oriented electric scooter that’s making waves in India with its longer range, smart features, and affordable price. Designed for daily commuters and families, this updated model builds on the success of the original Rizta, offering better range and modern tech. Priced between ₹1.10 lakh and ₹1.76 lakh (ex-showroom), it competes with scooters like the TVS iQube and Bajaj Chetak. With its spacious design and practical features, the Ather Rizta 2025 is ready to rule the roads. Here’s what makes it special.
Stylish Design for Everyday Comfort
The 2025 Ather Rizta sports a sleek, family-friendly look with a long 900mm seat, the biggest in its class, perfect for two adults and even a small child. Its horizontal LED headlight, integrated DRLs, and rounded tail give it a modern yet simple style. Available in 11 vibrant colors like Pangong Blue Duo, Alphonso Yellow Duo, and Deccan Grey Mono, it appeals to all tastes. The scooter’s 780mm seat height and 119 kg weight make it easy to handle for riders of all ages, ensuring comfort on city roads.
Longer Range for Worry-Free Rides
The Ather Rizta 2025 comes with two battery options: a 2.9 kWh pack offering a 123 km range and a 3.7 kWh pack with a 159 km range (IDC). Real-world tests suggest around 95-100 km with a pillion in Smart Eco mode, perfect for daily commutes. The scooter hits a top speed of 80 kmph and charges in 6-8.3 hours with a standard charger. Its 400mm water-wading capability ensures it can handle rainy days, making it a reliable choice for Indian roads.
Smart Features for Easy Riding
The Rizta 2025 is loaded with tech to make rides fun and safe. The top-spec Z variant has a 7-inch TFT display with Bluetooth, Google Maps navigation, and WhatsApp alerts. Features like MagicTwist regenerative braking, AutoHold, and Skid Control (traction control) add safety and ease. The 34-litre underseat storage fits a full-face helmet, and an optional 22-litre frunk adds more space. A wireless charger for the Ather Halo smart helmet and a USB port keep your devices powered on the go.
Affordable Price with Great Value
Starting at ₹1.10 lakh for the S variant and going up to ₹1.76 lakh for the Z 3.7 kWh Pro Pack, the Rizta offers good value. A recent price hike of ₹5,000 was announced from January 2025, so now’s the time to buy. EMI options start at ₹2,032 per month, making it budget-friendly. With a 5-year/60,000 km battery warranty and low running costs of ₹0.23 per km, it’s cheaper than petrol scooters like the TVS Jupiter.
