Ather Energy has marked a significant expansion in Nepal with the launch of its new Experience Center in Dharan-1, Chaata Chowk. This strategic addition makes Dharan the 13th location for Ather’s Experience Centers in the country, joining key cities such as Kathmandu, Pokhara, Chitwan, Itahari, Butwal, Janakpur, Birgunj, and Birtamod.
The newly opened Dharan center showcases Ather’s complete lineup of electric scooters, featuring popular models from the 450 series and the Rizta. Visitors can explore these vehicles up close and take them for test rides. Notably, the outlet also introduces the latest 450X Overtone Series, highlighting Ather’s commitment to innovation and performance.
Ather’s advanced 450 platform incorporates cutting-edge technologies such as Magic Twist, which enables throttle-based deceleration, Infinite Cruise for smooth cruising, and voice interaction capabilities. The Rizta model, on the other hand, emphasizes practicality and comfort, catering specifically to everyday and family-oriented riders.
Even before the official opening, Ather reported over 25 bookings from the Dharan area, reflecting strong early demand for electric scooters in eastern Nepal. To celebrate the launch, the company has introduced a special opening-period promotion valid until September 8, 2026. Customers can choose from attractive offers, including an extended battery warranty, a 50 percent down payment with zero interest, or an additional valuation of Rs 8,000.
In addition to expanding its sales network, Ather is also strengthening its ownership infrastructure across Nepal. The Eight70 battery warranty ensures eight years or 80,000 km of coverage, with a guarantee of maintaining at least 70 percent battery health. Ather currently operates more than 10 authorized service centers and over 50 fast-charging stations nationwide.
The new Dharan outlet provides residents of the eastern region with direct access to Ather’s electric scooters, enabling test rides and offering comprehensive after-sales support. As Ather continues to grow its electric scooter network, the brand remains focused on delivering innovative, sustainable mobility solutions across Nepal.
