Ola Electric has released the delivery schedules for the scooters as well as updated pricing for its S1 X range. The S1 X is priced at Rs 69,999 (introductory pricing), Rs 84,999, and Rs 99,999, respectively, and comes with three battery configurations: 2 kWh, 3 kWh, and 4 kWh.
Next week is when S1 X deliveries will commence. Additionally, the firm said that the S1 Pro, S1 Air, and S1 X+ will now retail for Rs 1,29,999, Rs 1,04,999, and Rs 84,999, respectively. A comprehensive 8-year/80,000-kilometer battery warranty is also included with every S1 scooter at no additional cost. The company’s debut into the mass market category is the S1 X line. With its cheaper cost of ownership and free 8-year/80,000-kilometer battery guarantee, the S1 X is a competitively enticing value option.
“We believe India’s EV industry has reached an inflexion point with the EV penetration in the 2W segment at an all-time high last month. Our S1 X portfolio now addresses the high upfront cost of EVs which is one of the major barriers to EV adoption. Ola’s robust cost structures coupled with vertically integrated in-house technology and manufacturing capabilities enable us to price our products competitively,” an Ola spokesperson said.
The S1 X range accommodates clients with varying range needs and includes the much sought-after physical key. With 4 kWh, 3 kWh, and 2 kWh versions, the S1 X has an IDC-certified range of 190 km, 143 km, and 95 km, respectively. With a 6kW motor, the scooter can accelerate from 0 to 40 km/h in 3.3 seconds and reach a maximum speed of 90 kmph in the 4kWh and 3kWh versions, or 85 kmph in 4.1 seconds in the 2kWh form. The scooter features three riding modes that riders may easily select between Eco, Normal, and Sports.
“With new prices of S1 X and a wide product portfolio across all popular price points, we are confident of driving EV penetration further across the country,” the spokesperson said.
Ola Electric has also introduced a portable fast charger accessory of 3KW which is available for purchase at Rs 29,999. The announcement coincided with another remarkable achievement, with the company reaching a registration milestone of 5,00,000 scooters (as per VAHAN portal) in under 2.5 years, the company said.
