Electric scooters steadily becoming the mainstream is, honestly, a little sad to me. But a mass-market model like the Ather EL01, one a family can use, is genuinely welcome as everyday transportation. So — what about usability and under-seat storage, that's my concern. If a quiet, convenient bike spreads widely, I want to see that future through to the end.

EL01 has a nice ring to it - is this actually rideable in Japan?

It's probably an India-domestic model, so official Japan release isn't happening anytime soon.

Announced Aug 29 with "launch in a few months" - that's usually the kind that ends up delayed.

Congested Indian cities are exactly where electric scooters shine, so going mass-market is the right call.

Ather's always been a somewhat premium brand - curious what price they land the EL01 at as a mass-market model.

Going from premium to mass-market probably means cutting range or motor output.

Both Bajaj and TVS have electrics out now, so I think prices will end up dropping through competition.
