OLA S1 Summary

Ola has launched its new scooter, the S1 in the Indian market. It will come in two variants, Ola S1 and Ola S1 Pro.



Both variants of the Ola S1 feature a similar design that comprises a compact twin-pod headlight with an LED DRL ring, apron-mounted sleek LED indicators, a body-coloured front fender, curvy side panels, a sleek LED taillight, an external charging point at the back, and a split-style pillion grabrail. It features a 36-litre under-seat storage that can accommodate two open-face helmets. The colour palette for the base model includes five options while the Pro variant is available in 10 choices.



Mechanical specifications on both scooters include an electric motor that produces a peak output of 8.5kW and maximum torque of 58Nm. The battery capacity for the base variant and the Pro model stands at 2.98kW and 3.97kW, respectively. In terms of performance, the Ola S1 boasts a top speed of 90kmph and a range of 121km per charge. The Ola S1 Pro, on the other hand, can achieve a top speed of 115kmph and features a range of 181km per charge.



Standard features on both models include proximity lock/unlock, remote boot lock, call alert, message alert, infotainment, side-stand alert, anti-theft alert, geo fencing, WiFi, Bluetooth, GPS, onboard navigation, limp home mode, reverse mode, get home mode, take-me-home lights, find my scooter, HMI moods with sound, electronic steering lock, HMI brightness adjuster, welcome screen, OTA updates, manual SOS, and predictive maintenance. The Pro variant further benefits from hill hold system, cruise control, and voice assist. The Ola S1 version uses two riding modes (Normal and Sport) while the Ola S1 Pro variant packs three (Normal, Sport, and Hyper).



The hardware on both variants comprise a tubular frame, single front fork, rear mono-shock, disc brakes on both wheels, and a combined braking system.



Ola recently updated the S1 and it’s now available in two battery options: 2kWh and a 3kWh battery. While both models are powered by the same 5.5kW motor, they’ll now differ in terms of the range. The 2kWh battery offers a 91km range and the 3kWh unit can do 141km (ARAI). Apart from that, the two models get the same features and hardware as mentioned below.


OLA S1 Review

  • Good Things

    • Looks quite distinct
    • Gets two battery options 
    • Equipped with lots of features
  • Could be Better

    • Priced quite high
    • Doesn’t have normal scooter proportions

BikeWale's Take

The Ola S1 is probably the most hyped scooter of 2021. It is loaded with lots of features, gets cool design and comes with multiple motor and battery options. But the pricing is a bit high, considering the fact that the scooter doesn’t have the petrol-scooter body proportions.

      Extra Features

      Horrible service support ever seen in life

      15 hrs ago


      Sanu

      1. The buying experience was good and smooth.
      2. Riding is also good, getting good mileage and power
      3. Looks good
      Now comes the main things why I don't recommend this bike to anyone.
      Look at the youtube and online reviews, OLA really suck on service. The service center doesn't even bother to answer your query or resolve it. They are only interested in general service (that's the only thing they know). They say they don't get extra training or manpower to maintain a good service level. We had an issue with breaking and we were behind the Service center for almost a month.
      We did escalations via email, Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram, no use. Even tagging the CEO doesn't work out, for each, they will answer we are working on your issue, and it's escalated. But if you ask for how long the escalated issue will go on, they will again say the same comment, no answer for the asked questions. We did follow up for almost 30 + days and then left it. Sold the bike now can't tolerate this f***ng service level.
      Best of luck to those who still go for it god save you.
      Better to go with any brand company like TVS or Hero even though the range is less, you will have peace of mind. If not wait for their best products to come.

      OLA worst service

      2 days ago


      Anshu

      Very poor service for 20 days my scooter is at home and shows a system issue but the service team as well as the sales team is not responding. I got the problem from day 1 but was unable to resolve it. The Ola Electric app is also not working and not showing my scooter. Very bad experience after purchasing this scooter.

      Worst experience using ola vehicle (S1 X+)

      3 days ago


      Anu

      The vehicle was delivered late after booking and after using for 3months the Ola vehicle, it has started giving problems. There is also proper support and service from Ola customer service. I started hating this vehicle, customers will lose hope if they do so. Very worst experience. It stops suddenly, and don't get started.

      Fun OLA Fantastic scooter.

      3 days ago


      Manoj

      OLA scooters are really game-changers in the automobile industry.
      The booking and delivery of the scooter are far better than before. Good response from the sales and service team as well.
      The scooter is lightweight and has good pickup in its competitor's range. Kottayam has hardly any fertile roads and the driving is smooth on the ups and downs across the street. The service requirement is still not required.
      All together a fun bike to ride around.

      Worst and dangerous scotty for health

      6 days ago


      Geetali Ajgaonakar

      It's been 4 months since I bought this bike. I ride it to travel to work for around 40 kms daily, and it has started hanging. 5-6 episodes occurred, even after service people repaired it. cannot trust this bike. Stops in the middle of traffic. Once the truck from behind was almost coming and hitting me as it got hang in between.
      it would be the worst investment to buy this.
      Very risky to health and inconvenient
      And the service is a big hassle. it's not easily available as we have to raise a ticket and they take days to come home, even after the ticket is issued

      Extremely Amazing Vehicle

      2 weeks ago


      Aditya Sharma

      It was a good experience, I bought it for around 110k Indian rupees and it has an amazing slick build, I don't have to worry about service or maintenance as much and it's way better than petrol scooters, the pros are that it gives very high mileage and great performance, cons would be charging time.
