I want to buy an EV scooter in the ₹1 to ₹1.25 lakh range with a real-world range of over 150 km. My daily commute is about 60 km. I prefer a model with low maintenance and easy service/repair. I was initially considering the Ola S1 X, but its service reputation is negative - so please suggest some strong alternatives.

Within your budget, there's no electric scooter with a battery big enough to fit your requirements. The options we would recommend looking at for you are the Bajaj Chetak 35 models, TVS iQube 3.5 or 5.3 variants and the Ather Rizta 3.7 duo. These options are quite a bit above your budget, so if you're open to a petrol scooter, you can consider the TVS Jupiter, Suzuki Access and Honda Activa models. Coming to the Ola S1X you're considering, even though it may be falling within your budget and look tempting on paper, please do not waste your hard-earned money on that product because the internet is flooded with horror stories that people have faced after buying Ola Electric products.
