Growing up, I always wondered what the future would look like. Would there be flying cars, lightspeed travel, maybe even time travel? Looking back, I think what I may have envisioned was too far into the future. I wasn’t totally off the mark, though, and as a generation, we have reached the advent of an array of wonderful developments. I have been rather biased toward developments that made me go faster, but can I be blamed? I have had my doubts regarding how far into the future would everything become all-electric. Always having been a bit of an aficionado of ICE machines that way, but I admit EVs seem to be getting more and more interesting as the days go by.
Ather is a rather big name on the EV scene right now in India, and I was pretty excited to find out that it was launching something new. Enter the new Ather 450X Gen 3. At first glance, I didn’t see any changes. It was the same futuristic-looking electric scooter, same colours, and no visible differences. This puzzled me quite a bit and left me thinking whether it was all a joke.
