Currently, the Ola S1 is priced at Rs 99,999, while its top-spec S1 Pro variant will set you back by Rs 1,29,999 (both price ex-showroom, excluding the FAME 2 subsidy). However, if you belong from Gujrat, Maharashtra, Delhi, or Rajasthan, then it will cost you even much cheaper.
Powering the Ola electric scooter is a mid-drive internal permanent magnet motor (Hyperdrive Motor) that produces a maximum power output of 8.5kW and a peak torque of 58Nm. While the power figures are the same for both variants, their battery specifications differ from each other. That said, the top-spec S1 Pro comes with a 3.97kWh battery that offers a range of 181 kilometers on a single charge. On the other hand, the 2.98kWh battery pack of the base-spec S1 trim offers a range of 121 kilometers.
The S1 Pro has a top speed of 115kmph and is claimed to sprint from 0-40 kmph in just 3 seconds, making it the second-fastest e-scooter after the newly launched Simple One. Learn all about it in our comparison story.
