Another person, @a_RadicalMind, talked concerning the financial facet of it. “The real reason: Tesla can put a 35,000/- gaming hardware on a 1,00,00,000/- car. But no one can put 35,000/- hardware on a 1,85,000/- scooter. That would be 20 percent of scooter’s price. If Ather makes a 20 lakh scooters, then the economics will work,” wrote the person.
Ather had a hilarious response prepared for this person too
If somebody comes to us a pre-books a 20L scooter, we’ll make it.
