Simple Wave vs Ather Konarc: Which ₹1-1.9 Lakh Family Scooter Tells You the Truth About Range?
Sep 29, 2026The Spec'd take
Why it stands out
- Real, aggressive entry price of Rs 99,999 makes it Ather's most affordable scooter yet, undercutting its own Rizta S.
- A genuine choice of three confirmed battery and range configurations (100, 125 and 161 km IDC) lets buyers pick exactly the range they need without overpaying for capacity they will not use.
- Everyday practicality features like 31-litre underseat storage plus a 2-litre front compartment, and a 3-year/30,000 km battery warranty backed by Ather's own service network.
Worth knowing
- Entry-level top speed of just 70 km/h on the S variant is modest even by city-scooter standards.
- Drum brakes on both wheels at every currently priced S-variant trim, with no disc brake option confirmed yet.
- The higher-spec Z variant (TFT touchscreen, MagicKey keyless entry, 80 km/h top speed) and the 200 km range option have been announced but Ather has not confirmed a price for either yet, so buyers wanting those features must wait.
