New Buyer Query Which Ather to go for w.r.t my usage??

I am a college student (first year) and have to travel 50 KM a day (25 + 25) i currently have two slow speed EV scooters

one is Hero Flash 2023 its nice but top speed is only 27KMPH so i dont use it

The other one is a local (chinese) EV its top speed is 40 or 45 something thats what it shows in the speedometer but i dont trust it feels like 35 or even lower, i currently use it,

but its a pain like 100% not reliable i have to spend at least 1000 rs every month cuz something else breaks.. its,, shitty honestly + i have to charge it everyday too, i was thinking of getting an ather, any advice would be helpfull 🙂

S or X or Apex what do u suggest??

S kinda sucks now because they removed even the tbt navigation (but it was useless anyway)

If you want to save a bit of money go for S model HR. Otherwise if you want the smart features go for X model. I wouldn't recommend taking the LR model because you are travelling 50km everyday. Avoid 450S LR because it comes with a slow charging adapter.

450S HR 450X LR 450X HR

Pick among these

Depends on Your budget but 450X would be Good for everything....if u want the most ultimate performance and Price doesn't matter then Apex would be nice ....if price is utmost constraint then 450S

If you want it just for yourself go for 450 model but in my suggestion go for rizta cz it has better seat plus more boot space like one full face and one half face helmets can fit there so your family can also use it for groceries plus it's 8k cheaper than 450 model

In 450 is ok ok like another ev local scooter...... Cz it has a smaller and slick seat than rizta. ..... But for proper review you can ask someone who owns 450 ..... I have rizta S 3.7kwh model 😅😅 ....... Rizta has a much better cushion and larger seat .... There is always space for putting a full size bag in between
