Ather Energy has unveiled a collector's edition of the 450X electric scooter called the Series 1. The limited edition version is available only to those who pre-ordered the scooter before the national launch of the Ather 450X on January 28, 2020.

The Series 1 gets translucent body panels in the rear that reveal the 450X's cast aluminium chassis under the seat and the trellis frame. The e-scooter is finished in a high-gloss metallic black colour with red accents. It comes equipped with a 7-inch touchscreen instrument console that has a special intro screen and different UI theme.

The 450X Series 1 comes with a 6 kW electric motor that is powered by a 2.9 kWh lithium-ion battery. It has four riding modes - Eco, Ride, Sport, and a high-performance 'Warp' mode. The e-scooter is claimed to accelerate from 0-40 km/h in 3.3 seconds.

Deliveries of the Series 1 will begin by November 2020 in all 11 cities - Bangalore, Chennai, Hyderabad, Kochi, Coimbatore, Kozhikode, Mumbai, Delhi NCR, Pune, Ahmedabad, Kozhikode, and Kolkata. The initial batches of Series 1 scooters will be shipped with black panels and will be upgraded to the translucent panels in May 2021.
