Ather Konarc launched at ₹99,999 with 200 km range
Ather Energy introduced its latest electric scooter, the Konarc, on Saturday at a starting price of ₹99,999. The launch took place at the fourth edition of Ather Community Day 2026 in Bengaluru. The scooter is built on Ather's new EL platform and is offered in six variants across its S and Z product lines.
The S line includes four variants with ranges from 100 km to 200 km, while the Z line has two variants with 125 km and 161 km ranges. The entry-level Konarc S 100 km model is priced at ₹99,999, ex-showroom in Bengaluru. Bookings and deliveries for the Konarc S 125 km and S 161 km variants are set to begin in mid-September, with a phased rollout across India.
Ather designed Konarc to cater to the needs of Indian riders who are yet to switch to electric vehicles. The scooter features a relaxed rake angle for better stability and comfort on Indian roads, long-travel suspension to navigate potholes and uneven surfaces, and metal panels for enhanced structural integrity. It also introduces Ather's Advanced Electronic Braking System, designed to reduce stopping distances and improve control.
The Konarc incorporates several user-friendly features, including MagicKey for keyless entry, AutoPop for easy access to under-seat storage, and AirWalk for assistance when pushing the scooter. Charging is simple, with an integrated onboard charger and cable. Ather aims to make the scooter accessible and comfortable for everyday riding, while also scaling its manufacturing capacity for wider distribution across India.
