Our take on this /// Verdict
The Ather Rizta Z is a well-crafted electric scooter that leans heavily towards being a family-friendly vehicle, and it largely succeeds in this endeavor. The scooters design is simple yet distinctive, with a large and comfortable seat that can easily accommodate two riders. The build quality is typical of Ather, with premium switchgear and a solid construction. However, the ride quality is where the Rizta falls slightly short it can be firm, especially on rough roads, which might not be ideal for all commuters. The performance is decent, with the 4.3 kW motor providing enough power for daily commutes, though it lacks the punch of the 450 series. Features like MagicTwist and Skid Control, available with the Pro pack, are standout additions that enhance safety and convenience. Despite some minor flaws, such as the lack of a touchscreen and a somewhat laggy interface, the Rizta is a solid choice for families looking for a reliable and feature-rich electric scooter.
Price
The Ather Rizta Z is priced competitively in the Indian market, with the base variant starting at Rs 1.10 lakh and the top-spec variant going up to Rs 1.45 lakh, ex-showroom. The Pro pack, which adds features like MagicTwist and Skid Control, adds an additional Rs 15,000 to Rs 20,000 to the price. On-road prices will vary depending on the state and local taxes, but you can expect to pay around Rs 1.25 lakh to Rs 1.60 lakh for the top variant. Given the features, build quality, and performance, the Rizta Z offers good value for money, especially considering the growing demand for electric vehicles in India.

Ather Energy has achieved a significant milestone by selling 20,000 units of the Rizta by October 30, marking a substantial increase in their market share. This growth indicates a strong consumer preference for the Rizta, which is designed with family comfort in mind. I believe this success is a testament to Athers strategic move into the family electric scooter market.

The Ather Rizta is now available in several cities across India, including Pune, Ahmedabad, Delhi, Lucknow, Agra, Jaipur, Nagpur, and parts of Andhra Pradesh. The company has started deliveries in a phased manner, with plans to expand to other cities soon. I think this phased rollout will help Ather ensure a smooth delivery process and better customer satisfaction.

Ather Rizta features advanced technology, including integration with Google Maps for real-time traffic updates and two-wheeler routes. It also supports WhatsApp notifications and music control directly from the dashboard. I believe these features make the Rizta one of the most connected and convenient family scooters in the Indian market.

The Ather Rizta is available in two main variants: the Rizta S and the Rizta Z, with the Z variant offering a higher range of 159 km with its 3.7 kWh battery pack. The scooter also boasts a spacious 34-liter boot and a long, comfortable seat. I think the storage and seating space make it an ideal choice for family use.

Ather Rizta’s design is more conventional and family-oriented compared to Ather’s sporty 450-series scooters. It includes features like a pillion backrest, pillion side step, and a sleek LED tail light. I believe this design approach will appeal to a broader audience looking for practicality and comfort.
Mileage

The mileage of the Ather Rizta Z is one of its strong points, making it a practical choice for daily commutes. With the 2.9 kWh battery pack, you can expect a real-world range of around 100 km in Smart Eco mode, which drops to about 75-80 km in Zip mode. The larger 3.7 kWh battery pack increases the range to approximately 120-130 km. These figures are quite respectable and should cover most urban commutes without the need for frequent charging. The Smart Eco mode is particularly useful for extending the range, making the Rizta a reliable option for those who prioritize efficiency.
