HIGH STACKS

Atherstack 6, more range and updated tyres made the 450X more entertaining than before

The Ather 450X has been one of my favourite e-scooters, and though I have had fun in the city with it, never had I imagined hooning on a track on it. Though it was a go-kart track, it was just perfect to have fun with the 2025 model... and, well, test the updates, of course. And the way folks at Ather altered the track, there wasn't much choice, either.

If it wasn't for this fancy 'Stealth Blue' colour, one wouldn't even know that this is the latest update. Yeah, I get that even after seven years, the scooter still looks like it belongs in 2025, but come on, after all these years, the 450X deserves a little bit more than just a paint job, right?

The new 450X also continues with the same suspension and braking hardware, too. This means the scooter still has a firm suspension and a bit-too-enthu brakes. Though Ather has skipped on adding ABS, you will find yourself relying a bit less on them to shed speed... at least I did.
