Ather 450X is a smart electric scooter that offers a range of features to enhance the riding experience. One of these features is the Google Navigation feature, which allows the rider to access Google Maps on the dashboard of the scooter. 

In this article, we will explain how this feature works and what benefits it provides.

How to use Google Navigation on Ather 450X?

To use Google Navigation on Ather 450X, the rider needs to pair their smartphone with the scooter via Bluetooth and the Ather app. Once paired, the rider can use voice commands or the app to search for a destination on Google Maps. 

The Bluetooth pairing process is simple and quick, and only needs to be done once. The rider can follow these steps to pair their phone with the scooter:

• Download and install the Ather app on their smartphone from the Google Play Store or the Apple App Store.
• Turn on the Bluetooth on their phone and make sure it is visible to other devices.
• Turn on the scooter and press the home button on the dashboard for three seconds to enter the pairing mode.
• Open the app and tap on the "Pair with scooter" option.
• Select the scooter's name from the list of available devices and enter the PIN shown on the dashboard.
• Confirm the pairing on both the phone and the scooter.

The navigation instructions will then appear on the 7-inch touchscreen dashboard of the scooter, along with other information such as speed, battery level, range, and ride mode.

The rider can also customise the navigation settings on the dashboard, such as choosing between day and night mode, adjusting the zoom level, and selecting between 2D and 3D view. 

The dashboard also shows real-time traffic updates and alternative routes, as well as nearby points of interest such as petrol pumps, charging stations, restaurants, and hospitals.
