Yamaha EC-06 vs Ather 450 Apex Comparison

By partnering with River, Yamaha bypassed years of ground-up development with the EC-06. The manufacturer took an already established utility scooter and polished it further so that it meets global standards. Admittedly, it is not the fastest scooter in its segment, nor is it the most technologically advanced. It also loses out on the massive storage space and demands a steep premium for the Yamaha badge. However, in return, it offers stable rides, a well-calibrated throttle response, and the ability to navigate past broken roads with its 14-inch wheels.

As Amaan summarises,

“It is unrivalled in the fact that it gets a 14-inch wheel at both ends, which no one among Bajaj, TVS, Ather, Hero MotoCorp, Honda and Suzuki currently offers.”
