We have earlier covered the Ather Rizta’s S and Z variants in their standard form. In this story, we focus on the S variant equipped with the larger 3.7kWh battery pack, which primarily brings a higher claimed range while retaining the same feature set as the smaller-battery S. This lower-spec variant with the bigger battery pack was recently added to the Rizta family.

The Rizta S continues with a peak power output of 4.3kW and 22Nm of torque. Performance remains unchanged across battery packs, with the scooter capable of reaching a top speed of 80kph in Zip mode.
2. What features does the Ather Rizta S 3.7kWh get?
The S variant retains its simpler feature set irrespective of the battery pack. It gets a segmented colour LCD display with basic Bluetooth connectivity, operated via a 4-way joystick. Unlike the Z variant, it does not get the touchscreen TFT, Google Maps navigation or advanced connected features.

4. What is the range of the Ather Rizta S 3.7kWh?

The Ather Rizta S with the 3.7kWh battery pack is priced at Rs 1.38 lakh (ex-showroom, Bengaluru).
