The Ola S1X electric scooter, a new product for Ola Electric, will soon be unveiled. The new scooter will debut on August 15, which is Independence Day. Price-wise, the S1X is anticipated to start at less than Rs. 1 lakh (ex-showroom). Compared to their previous models, including the recently announced S1 Air, the Ola S1X is intended to be a starting point scooter in Ola Electric’s lineup. It is based on the next-generation platform that will also be the basis for the manufacturer’s upcoming electric scooters.
Although the fundamental design might be different, essential components like the wheels and suspension might be shared with the S1 Air, the model’s brother. This plan enables Ola Electric to cut manufacturing expenses and guarantees a certain amount of uniformity across all of its lines of products.
Expected Features
The S1X is anticipated to have dual gas-charged shock absorbers at the back and adjustable suspension up front. Drum brakes will be used for both the front and rear brakes, potentially with a Combi-braking system. Instead of alloy wheels, the S1X will ship standard steel wheels.
Compared to its more expensive models, the new scooter is anticipated to have a comparable appearance. In contrast to the other models in the S1 series, the teaser image reveals a distinctive visage. While the rear tail lamp design might not change, the headlamp is anticipated to include LED DRLs and a projector configuration. However, one of the significant vital aspects determining the success of Ola S1X is its wide range; S1X offers a superb range of 100km. In comparison to the previous model of Ola, the S1 Pro covers a wide range of 125 km, which is the certified range given by the company, and the range of its other powerful model S1 Pro is 181 km. However, the upcoming S1X is budget friendly for buyers. At this price, Ola S1X is supposed to be booming in India.
An all-digital screen with a lesser resolution than the S1 Pro is what you can anticipate. It will show some fundamental scooter facts. The availability of features like internet access, Bluetooth connectivity, and navigation has yet to be confirmed. However, with this new Ola S1X entry level in the ‘Indian Automotive Market’, Ola is trying to achieve more audience with its ‘Green Energy Product’ pricing and features. The brand is excited for this festive season to gather a lot of bookings for its Ola S1X.
Ola’s Vision
However, the vision of Ola Electric company wants to make India No.1 in electrification and remove the dependency of Indians on ‘Fossil Fuel’ and reduce ‘Global Emission.’ The Company has the largest 2W factory globally, in which the total workforce is women and intelligent robots only. Moreover, Ola plans five more variants of electric scooters and bikes to be launched in the upcoming year. Along with this, Ola is working on its First Car Model, and further details will be unrevealed by Ola in 2024.
