Ather Rizta wades through 400 mm of water in new video

It appears that the Rizta will get a similar TFT dash as the 450X.

Ather Energy has released a short video showing the Rizta electric scooter undergoing water-wading tests. It also reveals a few interesting details of the upcoming e-scooter.

In the video, the Ather Rizta can be seen cruising through a 400 mm deep trough of water. The test would also help the engineers understand how the components hold up when they come in contact with water, especially the battery pack, which is said to be IP67-rated. 

You can see the LED headlight of the Rizta working even when submerged in water. Another component that will be put through tests is the touchscreen instrument console. It appears that the Rizta will get a similar TFT dash as the 450X. 

The Rizta is Ather Energy's idea of a “family scooter”. It has a flat floorboard and a wide seat, which has already been teased by the company.
