It’s about giving riders the confidence that a charger is never too far away. As our retail footprint grows, the charging network will continue to scale alongside it, making EV ownership truly seamless.”
The Expanding Ather Grid in Tamil Nadu
As of 12th August 2025, Ather has over 430 Ather Grid fast charging points in Tamil Nadu. The network is spread across 38 cities, including Coonnoor, Yelagiri, and Rameswaram. These chargers are strategically placed to connect significant routes such as Coimbatore – Bangalore, Madurai – Kanyakumari, Coimbatore – Palani, Trichy – Chennai, and Chennai – Pondicherry. In addition to the Ather Grid network, customers will also have access to over 50 fast charging points built on the LECCS (Light Electric Combined Charging System) standard. This brings the total number of fast charging points in Tamil Nadu to over 480.
Ather also has a robust retail and service network in the state, with 44 Experience Centres and 42 Service Centres spread across 35 cities as of 30th June 2025, ensuring easy access to sales and after-sales support.
The Role of LECCS and Strategic Partnerships
Developed by Ather and opened for industry-wide adoption, LECCS allows different brands of light electric vehicles to use the same network. Ather Grid chargers are visible on Google Maps, making it easy for any customer with a LECCS connector on their scooter to locate, navigate, and charge. This further enhances the everyday ownership experience. To expand the charging ecosystem, Ather Energy has established successful partnerships with various organizations in Tamil Nadu, including Coffee Day Global Limited, Zeon Electric Private Limited, Ganga Sweets, and Aswins Sweets for widespread charger deployment.
Ather pioneered India’s first two-wheeler fast charging network in 2018. Since then, it has built the country’s widest electric two-wheeler charging infrastructure with over 3300 Ather Grid fast charging points in India. The network’s fast chargers offer efficient performance, enabling compatible electric two-wheelers to charge at a rate of 15 kilometers per 10 minutes, reducing downtime for users during daily commutes and extended travel.
