- S1 Air 2kWh, S1 4kWh, and S1 2kWh battery options discontinued
- Pre-booked scooters will be upgraded to 3kWh option at an introductory price
- Buyers will also get Rs. 6,999 worth of extended battery warranty on their next Ola scooter purchase
Just a few months ago, Ola Electric launched various battery options for its S1 and S1 Air electric scooter. Now, the brand has discontinued those due to unprecedented demand and will have to prioritise the 3kWh models of the S1 and S1 Air.
So, what about the customers who pre-booked the 2kWh or the 4kWh variants? Ola will switch their scooters to the 3kWh trim at an introductory price to enable them to pay the remaining amount during the purchase window. But buyers can also cancel their bookings if they want and Ola will refund the entire amount. Moreover, Ola will also give the customer a battery-only extended warranty worth Rs. 6,999, but, on their next Ola e-scooter purchase.
So, as of now, the S1 and S1 Air can only be purchased with a 3kWh battery, whereas the S1 Pro continues to be powered by a 4kWh unit. The current asking price for the S1 Air is Rs. 1,09,999, while the S1 and S1 Pro retail at Rs. 1,29,999 and Rs. 1,39,999 (all ex-showroom, Bengaluru, including FAME II), respectively.
If you are looking for electric scooters apart from the Ola S1, then the premium models currently on sale are the Ather 450X, TVS iQube, Bajaj Chetak, and Vida V1.
