New Ola S1 Air Makes Going Electric Even Cheaper

The S1 Air, Ola's entry-level electric scooter, has just been launched in India and is priced at Rs 79,999, equating to $973 USD. This promotional pricing will be valid until October 24, after which the scooter will be offered at a still reasonable Rs 84,999 ($1,034 USD). The S1 Air is the most basic of Ola Electric's S1 scooters, with fewer riding options than its more expensive S1 and S1 Pro siblings.

The Ola S1 Air has a smaller 2.5kWh battery pack, and charging from zero to 100 percent at home takes about four and a half hours. The S1 Air, like its more expensive siblings, has a hub-mounted motor with a max output of 4.5kW. It comes with three riding modes: Eco, Standard, and Sport. In Eco mode, this offers it a top speed of 90 kilometers per hour, or roughly 56 miles per hour. Furthermore, it has a range of 62 miles on a single charge, which should be plenty for a few days' worth of commuting.
