Evolet Derby vs Ather 450 Comparison

The Evolet Derby is a low speed electric scooter and is available in two variants – EZ, with a lead acid battery, and Classic, with a lithium ion battery. The ICAT certified Derby is powered by a 250 watt BLDC electric motor. The Derby EZ with VRLA battery (lead acid) takes 8-9 hours to be fully charged and has a range of 90-120 kms. Derby Classic with a lithium ion battery, has a charging time of 3-4 hours, and has a maximum range of 90-120 km. The Derby features a spacious seat and also comes with full-digital speedometer, as well as electronic assisted braking system and optional IOT features. As far as low-speed electric scooters go, the Evolet Derby is a decent option.

It is a viable alternative to a conventional scooter offering impressive performance, excellent riding dynamics and, sheer practicality despite the limited range. The scooter's tech-laden nature also makes it quite the gadget to have. With an asking price of about ₹ 1.25 lakh (on-road, Bangalore), the Ather 450 isn't too differently priced than the top-of-the-line iPhone. In either case, it's a premium for what's on sale but we do think it's a worthy buy, for you will enjoy the experience.
