Ather had also rolled out a new SmartEco riding mode via an OTA update that month
Ather Energy’s monthly update reveals 3,779 units of the Ather 450X electric scooters have been sold in April. This is a massive 255 percent year-on-year growth over the same month last year. Even when compared to the sales in March 2022, the figures in April are up by 45.85 percent.
These figures are still a fraction of what a big player like Ola Electric tallies. But that said, Ola Electric also has the proper funding to back up its big numbers. Moreover, the semiconductor chip shortage has been affecting several manufacturers including Hero Electric. In fact, Chief Business Officer Ravneet S. Phokela, Ather Energy, said, “... the number of deliveries is a fraction of the pre-orders due to unprecedented challenges on the supply chain side including components shortage.” We hope Ather Energy is able to get around this crunch, and also ramp up its production soon, as the company still has a long way to meet the demand.
