Ola Electric has begun deliveries of the Ola S1 X e-scooter in India. The Ola S1 X is the brand’s most affordable electric scooter and is a strong competitor of the traditional gasoline-powered scooters in India.
The Ola S1 X is the only Ola Electric
e-scooter that has a physical key. The Ola S1 X is offered in three battery
options namely 2kWh, 3kWh, and 4kWh. All three models are currently being
offered at lower prices due to the price cut Ola implemented on the models. The
current prices place the Ola S1 X e-scooters as the most affordable electric
scooters currently in India.
The S1 X has a range of 91km for the 2kWh
battery pack. A full charge of the battery is achieved in 7.4 hours and the
scooter has a peak power output of 6kW. The 3kWh version of the e-scooter has a
151km range and a top speed of 90km/h. It goes from 0 to 40km/h in 3.3 seconds.
The 4kWh version of the e-scooter has a claimed range of 190km but maintains
the same performance specifications as the 3kWh version.
The Ola S1 X e-scooter can reach a speed
of 40 km/h in 4.1 seconds, showing a decent degree of acceleration. The scooter
has a top speed of 85 km/h and there are three riding modes – Eco, Normal, and
Sports. The S1 X has a 3.5-inch LCD screen in place of a touchscreen instrument
cluster.
The Ola Electric S1 X e-scooter is priced
in India at Rs. 69,999 (US$ 838), Rs. 84,999 (US$ 1,017), and Rs. 99,999 (US$ 1,197)
for the 2kWh, 3kWh, and 4kWh versions respectively. Ola Electric says
affordability, accessibility, and ease of ownership make the S1 X an attractive
proposition for potential buyers in the subcontinent. There are no indications
yet on the global availability of the Ola S1 X e-scooter.
