The Ather Rizta S gets a 7-inch LCD instrument console whereas the Ather Rizta Z gets a 7-inch TFT display, both with Bluetooth connectivity and turn-by-turn navigation. The electric scooter also comes with features like AutoHold, Reverse Mode, MagicTwist (negative throttle for regen braking) and more. It exclusively brings in advanced features like integrated WhatsApp, Alexa voice assist, and the Skid Control feature, which is basically traction control. The Rizta has a generous 34-litre underseat storage and an option to buy a frunk which increases 22 litres of storage capacity of the scooter.

The Ather Rizta provides a different option for Ather customers to choose from other than the sporty 450X and 450S scooters. It rivals the other family electric scooters in the market, including Bajaj Chetak, Ola S1 Pro, Vida V2 and the upcoming Activa Electric.
