Suggestion: when you guys use a voice recorder that records in stereo, a lot of times the interviews sound echo-y because of their stereo recording(sounds fine on headphones, but on laptop/mobile/mono speakers, there's lots of destructive interference). Turn it to mono in post (cancel the left channel and replicate the right on left as well - easy fix in any editing software) Works like a charm and sounds great!

Haven't watched such an intelligent yet fun interview for the longest of times. Usually the 1.25x-1.5x watcher, this time the thought didn't even crossed my mind. Brilliant !

Just loved the confidence in Tarun's words on his business and as always u both are the best in these interviews making it more lively..❤👌🏻
That point about being an entrepreneur and working with everyone in a team says a lot about the man's character...loved this
He handled the IIT-roasting so well.
Good to see India having new companies with their own IP and not just rebranding.

I never seen an interview like this which a founder replying in cool manner.
Day 46 of asking PowerDrift to bring Holy Shift Season 2.
It was great overall but I felt that sound quality was not upto the mark.
The last line by Shumi and Tenhunt's reaction was awesome. Great interview guys and found exact questions of getting job into Ather. Thanks a ton.

I want more such conversations from PD! Thoughtful & Provoking. Loved it! Youth needs such doses more often.

Wow!!! That was just an amazing Interview. . .❤️ For a while I thought I was back to my Management class. . What an inspiring guy❤️. . This is why PD is the best in the country for Automotive Content❤️
I just love these interviews and wait for them to release. Ather is an incredible company. Loved hearing the thoughts of the man behind it. Kudos to @PowerDrift

We want removable battery e scooters... We dont want to rely on manufacturers for their charging infrastructure
It's AMAZING DUDE. whAt!!! Love you powerdrift❤️❤️❤️❤️
Finally they met with a 2 Wheeler Manufacturing CEO!! Shumi! They heard your calls! 😂😂😂
I don't like interviews, and had no idea about Tarun, I had almost given this video a pass but glad I made up my mind and started watching it. Really enjoyed the episode and hope you guys make more of it... And who the hell gives a thumbs down for such an awesome effort?
Great Interview! Felt very natural and made the interviewee open up.
Great interview format. Loved the energy! Ather is solving one of the most challenging problem with such elegance.
Shumi just added fire to this interview 🔥🔥🔥
So nice and enjoyable conversation. It hard to talk with IITian guy. They are so smart. 🔥
It's a supercool session❤️❤️👍🏽
With him in the company Ather is going a long way ... Just keep making great products without caring about the price, people will buy
Wow...thanks for that interview!
You guys are🌹. Kudos to powerdrift! One rapid fire question that missed is simple or ola your biggest competitor?! Kudos to tarun mehta! He is the guy of most analysed business view. I LOVE India for this ✨🥵
What an interview , a great inspiration
Tarun really know what is Indian market 6:56
Lot of knowledge from a single video 👍

one of the best ev auto industry interview till date
Content awesome. Sound quality is an issue.
This would be the best of the meet the leaders ever !!!
why do people in Powerdrift skip prepositions in their English 😂😂
we need more such good videos !!
Reality check ✔️ > People want more range and scooter to look bit more bulky and not like a straw.
I really appreciate the content you are covering with leaders. But the sound filters during conversations aren't that compelling. There are echoes. Just a suggestion that I guess make this series a better version of it.
WHAT!! I was waiting for the Question "Rohan or Shumi" Where did that go?
Just before the biggest compititor of Ather is going to be launched, this interview seems to be done to promote Ather in an indirect manner. Just my view!

I love the cynicism but it’s unwarranted. We recorded this before Ola comms started and it’s actually 8 days late to release 🤦🏽♂️
I am also going to EVs Expo in Delhi...😍
Good question Shumi about Data Privacy !!
A very smart interview With the smart people And smart young leader Tarun is very faster in speaking like ather lolz Loved the interview though It would really be amazing If ather comes down on the price part We don’t need any software to be connected As we are all addicted to mobiles Why do we need smart technology in bikes again
He's inspiring ❤️🔥
You should have asked if it's possible to build a adventure e-vehicle like Himalayan. Like 400 km range .... Possible ??
Awesome ❤
Ather should make electric bus, with quick swapping batteries.
So cool
Really good to see such nice content 👍

Good video loved it. Voice could have been better.
I think shifting from li-ion batteries to maybe FCEV like hydrogen could probably be the breakthrough. But its a long game, but long game works. Atleast the founder should be open minded on these things.
This was one of the best meet the leaders episode 😊😊 I guess you should include Shumi for all the future ones 😬

Dear, PD team, In the next meet, Ask them to make E bike with gears Definitely they will rule this ev bike world of India. Don't forget to mention the "GEARS" ⚙️
Ather may not be playing key role in ev as it's not product that reaches middle class 2lakh after all subsidy ,it costs 1.4 with only 80-90km range. They shd design few basic models that shd reach common man with latest technology ,than instrumentation. Has many companies are coming up with different concept with affordable price with more benefits.
I want ultravoltee team in this pleaseee..it's dam cool please🙏🙏🙏
Activa is not for 75000 anymore. Activa 6G Deluxe is around 88000 in Mumbai. In fact none of the motorcycles are cheap now. Even the Unicorn costs around 1.25 lakhs which is a lot of money for a 160CC motorcycle. You can actually buy a Decent used hatchback in the same amount of money. Let the Scrappage Policy come into come into execution mode and old cars will become even more cheaper!!!
Tarun heard us and speaking by default at 1.5x speed😂😂
the guy is speaking fast and skipping words just like elon musk does 😂

14:38 Wrong. A breakthrough in battery technology can make EVs more mainstream than ever. The current lithium ion battery tech is several decades old with lots of limitations. Solid-state batteries aim to solve these problems.

I don’t think he meant that breakthroughs won’t help. He meant that what we have is enough to develop further into working, effective solutions at competitive pricing
