Kathmandu : Ather Energy, Nepal’s leading electric scooter brand, is all set to introduce its newest electric scooter – Ather Rizta – to the Nepali market. The highly anticipated launch will take place at the NAIMA Nepal Mobility Expo 2025, Nepal’s premier platform for sustainable mobility solutions.
With the successful footprint of the Ather 450 series already established in Nepal, Ather Rizta marks a bold new step toward bringing family-first, high-tech electric mobility to a wider audience.
Rizta: The Electric Scooter Built for Families
Designed with families and space in mind, Ather Rizta is a smart, spacious, and supremely
comfortable electric scooter built for everyday life.
The Ather Rizta has resonated deeply with Indian families, achieving sales of over 100,000
units within its first year.
Ather Rizta’s success in India stems from its thoughtful design and technology, and Vaidya
Energy is bringing those same strengths – tailored for Nepal. Its spacious seats and large
storage areas will be ideal for Nepali families and mixed-use travel between urban and rural
areas. Advanced safety features like traction control and theft alerts will offer added
confidence in Nepal’s varied terrain and busy city traffic.
Rizta’s smart connectivity features, including navigation, ride statistics, and over-the-air
updates, can be localized with Nepali language support and local map integration to enhance
the rider experience. The Z-variant’s extended 159 km range makes it perfectly suited for
intercity travel between hubs like Kathmandu, Bhaktapur, and Pokhara, and in other cities of
Nepal reducing range anxiety. Lastly, Vaidya Energy aims to make EV adoption more
accessible in Nepal by offering battery warranty options and attractive financing plans,
helping customers shift from petrol to electric with long-term savings in mind.
Rizta’s Features:
Impressive Range: Up to 159 km on a single charge, ensuring peace of mind for long
commutes and errands.
Powerful Performance: A robust 4.3 kW motor, quick acceleration, and reliable top speed
make it perfect for both city traffic and open roads.
Spacious Comfort: With the longest seat in the segment, it ensures a relaxed ride for both
rider and pillion—ideal for families.
Safety First: Equipped with Skid Control technology, disc brakes, and an ultra-strong chassis,
safety is built-in from the ground up.
Smart Connectivity: A 7-inch TFT touchscreen with Google Maps navigation, Bluetooth music
control, call management, and OTA updates.
Advanced Battery Protection: IP67-rated battery with a 5-year warranty for long-term peace
of mind.
Storage & Practicality: 34 liters of under-seat storage – the most in its class – so you can carry
your daily life with you.
