New Terracotta Red Ather Rizta Electric Scooter Nepal Launch Ignites Festive Season

A significant update brightened the Nepali electric vehicle (EV) market this festive season.

Ather Rizta Electric Scooter

Ather Energy Nepal officially unveiled its popular family-focused model, the Ather Rizta Electric Scooter Nepal, in a vibrant new colour: Terracotta Red.

This special edition launch, timed perfectly for the auspicious occasion of Laxmi Puja, immediately provided Nepali customers with a fresh, attractive option in the rapidly growing electric scooter segment.

Ather Energy, distributed in Nepal by Vaidya Energy Pvt. Ltd., introduced the Terracotta Red Rizta in both monotone and dual-tone versions.

This addition expands the Rizta’s colour palette to a total of nine distinct options. This extensive choice gives Nepali families greater freedom to personalize their shift to sustainable urban mobility.

The Rizta’s Growing Popularity in Nepal

The Ather Rizta has enjoyed a strongly positive reception since its first unveiling at the Nepal Mobility Expo 2025. This family-oriented e-scooter represents a strategic departure from Ather’s performance-focused 450 series, actively prioritizing comfort, safety, and everyday practicality.

The Rizta’s design successfully addresses the core needs of a family scooter. It features a spacious seat, a generous 56-litre storage capacity, and an array of smart connectivity features.

These elements combine to deliver a convenient and secure commuting experience, making it an ideal choice for daily family use. The scooter’s success is not limited to Nepal; its launch in India saw sales surpass an impressive 100,000 units within the first year, underscoring its broad market appeal.

Fusion of Style and Smart Technology

The new Terracotta Red colour embodies a perfect blend of modern aesthetics and a touch of cultural warmth, resonating well with the celebratory spirit of the festive season.

This colour, especially the dual-tone finish, gives the Rizta an eye-catching, premium road presence. Beyond aesthetics, the Ather Rizta packs advanced technology designed to enhance user convenience and safety.

The scooter comes equipped with a large, easy-to-read touchscreen dashboard that integrates Google Maps navigation, Bluetooth connectivity for calls and music, and a suite of smart features powered by the AtherStack Pro software.

Prioritizing Practicality and Safety

Safety remains a top priority for the Ather Rizta. The scooter incorporates features like SkidControl, which helps the rider maintain control on slippery surfaces, and FallSafe, which automatically cuts power in the event of a fall. These smart safety mechanisms provide essential peace of mind for riders transporting their loved ones.

Furthermore, the Rizta is built for reliability. It is offered in Nepal with a 3.7 kWh battery variant, delivering a certified IDC range of up to 159 km on a single charge.

This impressive range ensures it comfortably handles the daily commutes and errands of urban and semi-urban families without frequent charging stops. The battery is also supported by a comprehensive warranty, affirming Ather’s confidence in its durability and performance.

Expanding the EV Ecosystem

The introduction of new models and colour variants like the Terracotta Red Rizta is critical for driving wider EV adoption in Nepal. By offering more choices that cater to diverse tastes and practical needs, Ather Energy actively supports the nation’s transition to cleaner energy.

Vaidya Energy, the official distributor, is concurrently expanding the supporting infrastructure, including the Ather Grid fast-charging network and experience centres across Nepal.

This expansion strategy ensures that customers have easy access to sales, service, and charging facilities, making the overall ownership experience smooth and worry-free.

The continued growth of the Ather Rizta Electric Scooter Nepal presence shows a strong commitment to sustainable, smart, and family-friendly mobility solutions in the Nepali market.
