Ola has announced the launch of its S1, which it adds, might even come at a lower price. When the Ola scooter prices were originally revealed in August 2021, the company stated that the S1 Pro would cost ₹ 1.29 lakh (ex-showroom, including FAME II subsidy), while the S1 would be priced at ₹ 99,999.
At the time of launch, the differences between the two were significant — S1 Pro claimed a range of 181km (which the company later revised to 135km ‘true range’), the S1 claimed a range of 121km, which means its true range should be similar to the Ather 450X. The S1 uses a 2.98kWh unit, while the S1 Pro gets a 3.97kWh battery. In comparison, the Ather 450X has a battery capacity of 2.9kWh.
Performance on the S1 is also lower and, once again, closer to the Ather 450X. The S1 has a claimed top speed of 90kph, while Ola claimed a top speed of 115kph for the S1 Pro. Both scooters claim an impressive torque figure of 58Nm.
