Ola Electric, which recently opened its latest purchase window for the S1 Pro electric scooter has also increased the vehicle. The company has increased the price of the electric scooter by ₹ 10,000, which effectively takes the price of the Ola S1 Pro to over ₹ 1.20 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi).

The purchase window opened at a time when the company has come under some bad light following the several e-scooter fires and mishaps. Furthermore, earlier in March 2022, Ola even issued a recall for 1,441 units of its S1 pro electric scooter to run ‘pre-emptive diagnostics and health check-ups’. Having said that, in April 2022, Ola sold over 12,000 units of the S1 range, making it the best-selling electric scooter. So, demand for the scooter is still quite high.
The base model Ola S1 comes with a top speed of 90 kmph and a range of up to 121 km on a single charge. The S1 Pro, on the other hand, will offer a top speed of around 115 kmph and a range of up to 181 km. It comes with a 3.97 kWh battery pack that powers an electric motor that produces 11 bhp and 58 Nm of peak torque.
The Ola S1 Pro currently competes with other electric scooters like the Ather 450X, the Bajaj Chetak and even the TVS iQube, which was recently updated with a larger battery pack and more features.
