Ather Rizta - Features
The upcoming Ather Rizta boasts a spacious seat which has been a key highlight ever since its announcement. Mehta and Jain hinted at additional features for the Rizta, such as increased storage capacity to complement the larger seat. Currently, the Ather 450X offers 22 litres of under-seat storage, which is notably less than the 34 litres available in the Ola S1 range.
Moreover, the new Ather Rizta will also get notable features such as USB charging and a new smart accessory, although specifics about the accessory have not been disclosed yet. Ather has previously revealed that the Rizta will feature a touchscreen infotainment system and a larger, flatter floorboard. The company will also introduce its latest over-the-air (OTA) update, Ather Stack 6, at the Community Day event. This update will introduce messaging features on the dashboard, along with a new mobile app and other enhancements.
