The new Ola Gig has been designed to be a commercial two-wheeler and, as such, it comes with a large single seat for the rider as well as a big carrier at the back. 

Both scooters come with a single removable 1.5kWh battery pack, which can be extended to two packs if you buy the Gig+. The company claims a range of 112km for the Gig and either 81km or 157km for the Gig+, depending on whether you buy it with one battery or two. 

The scooter will start via app-based access, and while the company claims quick charging times, it hasn't stated any specific figures. So far, Ola has only revealed digital render images and no other specifications. For now, details such as seat height, kerb weight, load-carrying capability, and wheel sizes remain unknown.
