Ola Electric has once again disrupted the Indian electric scooter market with the launch of its new Ola S1 X+ 5.2 kWh variant. This new model is being seen as a strong value offering for budget-conscious buyers.
The biggest highlight of this scooter is the use of Ola’s in-house ‘Bharat Cell’ technology. The company has priced it at an introductory ex-showroom price of ₹1.29 lakh, although this offer is valid only until mid-month.
Impressive Range and Performance
The Ola S1 X+ 5.2 kWh variant delivers strong performance, rivaling even larger petrol scooters. It is powered by an 11 kW mid-drive motor and offers a claimed IDC range of up to 320 km on a single charge.
With a top speed of 125 km/h, it stands out as one of the fastest electric scooters available for both city commutes and open-road riding.
Advanced Technology and Platform
The scooter is built on Ola’s new Gen 3 platform, which brings improvements in performance, efficiency, and safety. It features a brake-by-wire system along with a front disc brake for enhanced control.
The S1 lineup now offers multiple battery options, ranging from a 2 kWh variant to this new, more powerful 5.2 kWh version, giving customers more flexibility based on their needs.
Company Statement
At the launch, an Ola Electric spokesperson stated that the company aims to bring its most advanced technology to a wider audience with this model. The same platform used in its high-end products is now being made accessible to everyday consumers.
Overall, the Ola S1 X+ 5.2 kWh emerges as a compelling option for buyers looking for a stylish, high-performance electric scooter with an impressive range and modern features.
