Ather Energy To Begin Exporting Electric Scooters To International Markets In 2021

The brand has been expanding its area of operations in the country, and has diverted resources towards studying and exploring international markets for new business.

The electric vehicle manufacturer's plan involves expanding into two new foreign markets by March next year. The brand said that exports would have begun by now if not for the Covid-19 pandemic and the nationwide lockdown that was in effect. Ather Energy is able to focus on export strategies now that restrictions have been lifted.

Ather Energy already has its export blueprints in place for multiple Southeast Asian markets, and plans to start its exports business with pilot projects before increasing production depending on demand. The brand said that Southeast Asian markets are first on their export list as there is huge demand for electric scooters.

Ather's choice of international markets are based on price acceptability. Outside of Southeast Asia, the brand says that European cities like London and Rome are high potential markets for electric scooters.

Ather Energy is also exploring Latin American markets where research shows that demand for electric scooters, and price acceptability lie somewhere in between the Southeast Asian and European markets.

While the brand's India based production facility can generate five lakh units a year if needed, Ather Energy intends to eventually set up assembly facilities at target markets and sell directly.

In Ather Energy related news, the brand released a new Dark Mode via its seventh Over-The-Air update for its customer base in India. The update brings a bunch of new features and an all new Dark Mode theme for the instrument cluster.

The Dark Theme has been something that customers have been requesting for via the Ather community. Owners can now manually choose between light and dark themes under the settings menu. To know more, click here.
