At Ather, we did not just engineer the most intelligent scooter  but we understood the customers and built an ecosystem to support it. The main element is charging and we built something that can support you even on the go. We currently lead the industry with India's largest and most expansive public charging network for electric scooters. With a wide grid of 5,900+ fast chargers spanning over 395 cities. Our mission is simple: to make sure you are never out of options. We are continuously expanding the Ather Grid, adding new fast-charging points every single day across every major city, we have eliminated range anxiety from the equation. Whether you are navigating through the city or embarking on a long journey, our ecosystem is designed to keep you moving without a second thought.

The Ather Grid - Fast Charging Public Network

It is a high-speed, high-reliability charging network strategically placed in high footfall areas and in key areas in each city, for the convenience of your  lifestyle. We’ve mapped out the country to ensure that electric scooter charging is never far from you. Ather Grid ensures that a quick top-up is never more than a few kilometers away.  Our fast-charging points are placed at high-traffic hubs, cafes, and malls, ensuring that while your scooter powers up quickly, you can too.

Ways to Find Ather Electric Charging Stations

We believe your electric scooter ownership should be a seamless experience. Finding Ather Grid fast chargers should be as intuitive and easy as the ride itself. We have integrated discovery into every touchpoint of the Ather experience.
