Founded in 2017 as a wholly owned subsidiary of ANI Technologies, Ola Electric Mobility is the country’s largest electric two-wheeler manufacturer. The company also owns the country’s largest two-wheeler EV manufacturing factory in Krishnagiri, Tamil Nadu. Ola Electric Mobility was started with the intention of decreasing the emissions and fuel dependency of the company’s cabs, and it started delivering electric two-wheelers in December 2021. Today, Ola has four electric scooters in its portfolio: Ola S1 Air, Ola S1 X, Ola S1, and Ola S1 Pro.
Ola scooters extend several benefits. They are eco-friendly commuting options and boast zero emissions. Furthermore, the company has claimed that its scooters are the fastest electric two-wheelers in the country. If you opt for the high-end models, you get a riding range of close to 200 km per single full charge, which is exceptional. Thus, by investing in a new Ola scooter, you can enjoy long-term savings, as you will not have to spend any money at fuel stations.
Furthermore, scooters from Ola boast impressive features, like digital key, multiple riding modes, reverse mode, and more. If you are considering purchasing a new Ola scooter, here are the different models manufactured by the brand.
Ola S1 Air
This mid-spec model from Ola comes in six colour schemes. The Ola scooter boasts several impressive features, including an all-LED lighting setup, a 7-inch touchscreen TFT instrument cluster, and smartphone connectivity with GPS-based navigation. You also get a spacious 34-litre underseat storage space for enhanced convenience.
Powering the scooter is a hub-mounted motor that generates 6kW of maximum power. This motor is paired with a 3kWh battery pack, which you can fully charge in just 5 hours. Furthermore, the company claims that this scooter can clock speeds of up to 90 kmph while offering a riding range of 151 km on a single full charge. The Ola S1 Air also comes with three riding modes: Eco, Normal, and Sport.
Ola S1 X Plus
The S1 X Plus comes in three variants and seven colour options and is one of the company’s most affordable scooters. While its design resembles the design of the other S1 scooters, there are some modifications to the headlamp cowl with LED projectors and LED bezels. Moreover, the handlebar is different, and the top-spec variant from the S1 X series is the S1 X Plus. This model packs a 3kWh battery unit that is paired with a 6kW motor.
The Ola scooter can attain speeds of up to 90 kmph – similar to the Ola S1 Air, while it also offers a riding range of around 151 km per single full charge. You also get a 5-inch display, while telescopic front forks and dual rear springs handle the suspension duties. For braking, the scooter uses front and rear drum brakes with a combined braking system of both wheels.
Ola S1 Pro Gen 2
The third scooter offered by the company is the Ola S1 Pro, with Gen 2 being the latest iteration. It is also the top-end model offered by Ola and offers a riding range of 195 km per charge. The Ola scooter comes equipped with a 4kWh battery pack and is paired with a potent 11kW motor, which allows you to speed up to 120 kmph. Coming to its feature suite, the two-wheeler sports a 7-inch touchscreen TFT display with Bluetooth connectivity, and you have instant access to information like low battery indicator and call and SMS alerts.
You can charge the battery in 6.5 hours, while the kerb weight of the scooter is 116 kg. This allows you to handle and manoeuvre the scooter easily on congested city roads. For your safety, the scooter is fitted with front and rear disc brakes, with a combined braking system offering improved braking performance. The suspension duties are handled by twin telescopic front forks and a rear mono-shock.
If you wish to switch to an eco-friendly mode of commute, you can buy any of these Ola scooters. However, if the scooter prices have you concerned, you can bid such worries goodbye by applying for a Bajaj Finserv Two-wheeler Loan. The two-wheeler loan from Bajaj Finance offers up to 100% financing of the scooter’s on-road price. Moreover, you could enjoy highly competitive interest rates and flexible repayment periods ranging from 12 months to 72 months.
