Ather 450X
The Yamaha Ather 450X is the best ‘e’ bike in India. The Ather electric scooter has an impressive surge and pull and can sprint from a stop at traffic signals. The ‘Warp’ mode gives an unbelievable burst of acceleration and turns the Ather into a pocket rocket. Its rear brake has a tendency to rear step out which can be scary for beginners.
The Ather 450X starts at Rs. 13,500 in Delhi. The 450X and 450 Plus are priced at Rs. 113,416 and Rs. 132,426, respectively. These models are not cheap, so you should prepare to spend a considerable amount of money to buy them. This guide will help you decide whether the Ather 450X is worth its premium price.
While the Ather 450X is the best ‘e bike’ in India, its biggest rival is the Bajaj Chetak. This is the brand’s first electric two-wheeler and marks the company’s comeback in the scooter market. The electric motor on the Bajaj Chetak is capable of producing up to 3.8 kW of continuous power and five bhp. It also delivers 16.2 Nm of peak torque at 1,400 rpm and can reach 70 kmph.

It can go from 0 to 40 kmph in 3.3 seconds. It also delivers a similar time with a pillion on board. The Ather 450X has four modes, one of which is Eco. This mode gives you the most range – similar to a 110cc scooter.

The F77’s powerful motor is capable of delivering incredible acceleration and is designed to withstand a variety of terrains.

Kabira Mobility KM 4000
The Kabira Mobility KM 4000 electric bike comes with a 4.3 kWh lithium ion battery. This battery is claimed to run the bike for 150 kilometers in Eco mode, 110 kilometers in ‘City’ mode and 90 kilometers in ‘Sport’ mode. The bike is charged within six and half hours and the second charging option takes about 50 minutes to charge the battery to 80 percent. Its bare minimum design and a lack of speed limiter make it an unattractive bike.
The KM 4000 is the flagship model from Kabira Mobility. It is available in three different variants, including STD, and costs Rs. 1,36,990. It was launched along with the KM 3000 earlier this year, and will be available in showrooms from May. Kabira Mobility KM 4000 is an electric bike, so it is definitely a great option for commuters.

But even with these specifications, it’s definitely worth considering if you’re looking for an electric bike.
The KM 4000 electric bike will be available in 50 cities in August 2021. Kabira Mobility is planning to expand its production capacity and its dealership network to meet demand.
