  • Battery Dead in less than one year

    39 weeks ago


    Rk

    Battery has degraded in less than 1 year of purchase and Ola does not replace battery under warranty. They ask for Rs 80,000 for battery replacement. There is no use of buying this scooter, it is a terrible waste of your hard earned money.
    Service experience is the worst you can get from any scooter company. Ola service people do not respond for weeks while your scooter may be lying dead.

  • Ola scooter not delivered after more than two-and-a-half months of payment - worst experince in my whole life

    46 weeks ago


    Joseph K John

    I booked a ola s1 electric scooter on 18.03.2023 in my wife's name, from ola showroom situated at m g road, Thrissur on 18.03.2023 after making an upfront payment of rs.1,27,926/-, through one of salesperson present in showroom, mr charles. The scooter was registered 25.03.2023 and the registration certificate was visible in ola app downloaded in the wife's mobile. The registration number of the scooter registered with rto, thrissur. However, the scooter registered in my wife's name has not been handed over to her despite an elapse of more than two-and-a-half months after the payment. Our repeated enquiries with the ola showroom at mg road thrissur have not yielded any results so far. What i could gather from my sources is that the scooter registered in my wife's name had a fall while transported and it is badly damaged. In fact, ola people are tight-lipped over the matter and till now I have not been informed as to why scooter registered in my name nearly two-and-a-half months ago has not been delivered to me. It is reliably learnt that customers who booked the scooter months after my booking have provided scooters. It is now learnt that ola is delivering scooters to the customers within 3 days of booking. We had booked the scooter only in the hope of getting delivery within 2-3 weeks of booking, as has been informed by the showroom people and if this sort of poor service of ola had been known to us beforehand, we would have never booked the scooter. If this is the kind of service they are providing us before the delivery of the scooter, what can I expect after delivery? So the worst is yet to come after the delivery of the scooter. Never trust ola electric scooters and never buy a scooter from them or else you will be their next victim. This is the worst experience in my whole life in booking a vehicle.

  • Open loot by spare parts depth even though it is under warranty

    1 year ago


    Yashkj

    This is mainly about the day loot by ola parts and service. For a broken brake lever they are charging close to rs 700. Which is not at all worth it. They said it doesn't come under warranty. Totally disappointed with such loot by ola. The vehicle is not even 1 month old and has sub-standard parts. Ridiculous.

  • Ola Scooter

    2 years ago


    Dinesh Talreja

    It was very early to comment on it, but for now if we look on paper ola will give tough competition to Bajaj, and Ather. Ola have to give great service to customers to survive in this market so that customer can rely on their products, speed & range is good on paper but exactly will figure when we get it .

  • Passcode lock and support issues

    1 year ago


    Avinash

    Not so a good experience. The mileage is less 20 km than claimed by the company. No quick support for any issue. Fitting issues for a new vehicle. Passcode lock issues. Support is bad. Initial pickup is very slow. The indicator sound can not be turned off.
    Please stay away from ola s1.

    Mayank Modi

    Very bad service. Worst service I had ever experienced. Ola Electric Company is just cheating everyone. After any breakdown, it Will take months to get it repaired. Ola people don't care about their users who are buying with hard-earned money. They are making fools of people. Buying this scooter is a trap. Please don't buy it.

  • Worst experience with olas1x+

    3 weeks ago


    Balakrishnan Vinchu

    Worst experience with Ola S1.
    Booked s1x on Feb with a delivery date of 3rd March. No response from Ola even after 3rd March. After many follow-ups with their call center, at last delivery happened on 29th March. Within 6 kms driving it stopped abruptly and did not turn on. The roadside assistance and support team does not really care about the customer's pain and issues.
    Don't go for Ola.

  • worse with the Ola team as well as with Ola S1 Pro performance

    7 weeks ago


    Swadesh Prakash

    I have purchased the OLA S1 Pro Gen 2 in Gurugram. It is one of the costliest EV 2-wheelers in India as of now.
    1. First of all the delivery experience is the worst, it took more than one month for delivery. The Ola team asked me to pick up this vehicle from Mahipalpur, Store which is in Delhi. When I received the bike, it didn't start. The brand-new vehicle was not functional during delivery. I waited for the next one week and then they asked me to collect the vehicle from the nearest hub in Gurugram this time.
    This time the bike was functional but it was very poorly handled and multiple scratches were there.
    2. They have charged for the helmet but they refused to give the helmet along with the vehicle. Even though they provided the bill for the Helmet (costing INR 691.) but didn't provide any helmet to me.
    3. The very next day when I charged the vehicle 100% and ran it in Normal mode with 70kg rider weight in city + highway, it ran only 62 km in normal mode and a further 10km in eco mode (with very limited) and the battery was fully discharged to 0%, while they claim 142 km range in Normal mode. And once it is discharged its handle will be locked and the display will be off, and as it is keyless you can't do anything.
    4. Most funniest thing is they charged INR 2887 customer handling charges as well for my worst vehicle delivery experience. For anything you request, they will answer, we don't have staff; even to clean your vehicle during delivery.
    The overall experience is worse with the Ola team as well as with Ola S1 Pro performance. You are going to waste your INR 162634 if you are going to buy it.

    It was very early to comment on it, but for now if we look on paper ola will give tough competition to Bajaj, and Ather. Ola have to give great service to customers to survive in this market so that customer can rely on their products, speed & range is good on paper but exactly will figure when we get it .

  • Passcode lock and support issues

    1 year ago


    Avinash

    Not so a good experience. The mileage is less 20 km than claimed by the company. No quick support for any issue. Fitting issues for a new vehicle. Passcode lock issues. Support is bad. Initial pickup is very slow. The indicator sound can not be turned off.
    Please stay away from ola s1.

    Very bad service. Worst service I had ever experienced. Ola Electric Company is just cheating everyone. After any breakdown, it Will take months to get it repaired. Ola people don't care about their users who are buying with hard-earned money. They are making fools of people. Buying this scooter is a trap. Please don't buy it.

  • Worst experience with olas1x+

    3 weeks ago


    Balakrishnan Vinchu

    Worst experience with Ola S1.
    Booked s1x on Feb with a delivery date of 3rd March. No response from Ola even after 3rd March. After many follow-ups with their call center, at last delivery happened on 29th March. Within 6 kms driving it stopped abruptly and did not turn on. The roadside assistance and support team does not really care about the customer's pain and issues.
    Don't go for Ola.

  • worse with the Ola team as well as with Ola S1 Pro performance

    7 weeks ago


    Swadesh Prakash

    I have purchased the OLA S1 Pro Gen 2 in Gurugram. It is one of the costliest EV 2-wheelers in India as of now.
    1. First of all the delivery experience is the worst, it took more than one month for delivery. The Ola team asked me to pick up this vehicle from Mahipalpur, Store which is in Delhi. When I received the bike, it didn't start. The brand-new vehicle was not functional during delivery. I waited for the next one week and then they asked me to collect the vehicle from the nearest hub in Gurugram this time.
    This time the bike was functional but it was very poorly handled and multiple scratches were there.
    2. They have charged for the helmet but they refused to give the helmet along with the vehicle. Even though they provided the bill for the Helmet (costing INR 691.) but didn't provide any helmet to me.
    3. The very next day when I charged the vehicle 100% and ran it in Normal mode with 70kg rider weight in city + highway, it ran only 62 km in normal mode and a further 10km in eco mode (with very limited) and the battery was fully discharged to 0%, while they claim 142 km range in Normal mode. And once it is discharged its handle will be locked and the display will be off, and as it is keyless you can't do anything.
    4. Most funniest thing is they charged INR 2887 customer handling charges as well for my worst vehicle delivery experience. For anything you request, they will answer, we don't have staff; even to clean your vehicle during delivery.
    The overall experience is worse with the Ola team as well as with Ola S1 Pro performance. You are going to waste your INR 162634 if you are going to buy it.

  • Battery Dead in less than one year

    39 weeks ago


    Rk

    Battery has degraded in less than 1 year of purchase and Ola does not replace battery under warranty. They ask for Rs 80,000 for battery replacement. There is no use of buying this scooter, it is a terrible waste of your hard earned money.
    Service experience is the worst you can get from any scooter company. Ola service people do not respond for weeks while your scooter may be lying dead.

  • Ola scooter not delivered after more than two-and-a-half months of payment - worst experince in my whole life

    46 weeks ago


    Joseph K John

    I booked a ola s1 electric scooter on 18.03.2023 in my wife's name, from ola showroom situated at m g road, Thrissur on 18.03.2023 after making an upfront payment of rs.1,27,926/-, through one of salesperson present in showroom, mr charles. The scooter was registered 25.03.2023 and the registration certificate was visible in ola app downloaded in the wife's mobile. The registration number of the scooter registered with rto, thrissur. However, the scooter registered in my wife's name has not been handed over to her despite an elapse of more than two-and-a-half months after the payment. Our repeated enquiries with the ola showroom at mg road thrissur have not yielded any results so far. What i could gather from my sources is that the scooter registered in my wife's name had a fall while transported and it is badly damaged. In fact, ola people are tight-lipped over the matter and till now I have not been informed as to why scooter registered in my name nearly two-and-a-half months ago has not been delivered to me. It is reliably learnt that customers who booked the scooter months after my booking have provided scooters. It is now learnt that ola is delivering scooters to the customers within 3 days of booking. We had booked the scooter only in the hope of getting delivery within 2-3 weeks of booking, as has been informed by the showroom people and if this sort of poor service of ola had been known to us beforehand, we would have never booked the scooter. If this is the kind of service they are providing us before the delivery of the scooter, what can I expect after delivery? So the worst is yet to come after the delivery of the scooter. Never trust ola electric scooters and never buy a scooter from them or else you will be their next victim. This is the worst experience in my whole life in booking a vehicle.

  • Open loot by spare parts depth even though it is under warranty

    1 year ago


    Yashkj

    This is mainly about the day loot by ola parts and service. For a broken brake lever they are charging close to rs 700. Which is not at all worth it. They said it doesn't come under warranty. Totally disappointed with such loot by ola. The vehicle is not even 1 month old and has sub-standard parts. Ridiculous.
