The 2024 KTM 390 Duke raises the bar yet again in the performance naked bike segment. With significant upgrades to its engine, chassis, and features, it delivers a more refined yet thrilling ride experience.

Pros Cons Ather 450

Pros

  • Great on performance and handling
  • Sharp design is a headturner
  • Easy to use interface

Cons

  • Uncomfortable seating for tall riders
  • Limited range
  • Slightly stiff suspension

Verdict

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.
