On August 15, Ola Electric introduced its S1X in three variants – S1 X+, S1 X (2kWh), and S1 X (3kWh).

The S1 X (2kWh) has the same 6kW motor, though it is powered by a 2kWh battery that gives the scooter a range of 91km and a top speed of 85kph. While deliveries of the S1 X+ are slated to begin next month, deliveries for the S1 X (3kWh) and S1 X (2kWh) scooters will commence in December.
On the same day, Ola Electric also launched its second-generation S1 Pro built on a newer platform. Priced at Rs 1.48 lakh, the Gen-2 S1 Pro now sports a conventional telescopic fork and flat floorboard. It now has a claimed IDC range of 195km and a top speed of 120kph.
An Ola spokesperson has commented on the demand saying, “We are thrilled with the response our new S1 lineup has received. We are working with speed and a clear vision to support the country’s leadership in electrification. With our refreshed lineup of scooters, including the S1 Pro, S1 X portfolio, and our recently launched S1 Air, there is absolutely no reason to buy an ICE product anymore.”
