Q. Difference bw Photon LI and LP ?

Q. What is the difference between Athers 450 plus and Athers 450X?
  • Sir how to fill the date of birth
  • Ather offers its electric scooter in two trims: 450X and 450 Plus. The 450 Plus, while new, arrives in the same tune as the old 450. Peak power is restricted to 5.4kW, while the claimed true range is 70km. It does 0-40kmph in 3.9 seconds. Torque is bumped up to 22Nm on the Plus. The 450X is for the more performance-oriented buyer.
