Ola Electric is now most likely to concentrate on delivering the scooters that have already been ordered. Ola Futurefactory, the company's manufacturing plant in Chennai that is projected to be the world's largest for e-scooters, is almost ready to start mass production to fulfill demand. Ola Futurefactory, which employs more than 10,000 women, expects to produce two million units each year for Indian and international markets.
The Ola S1 is priced at Rs. 1 lakh, while the S1 Pro is priced at Rs. 1.30 lakh. These costs are ex-showroom and will vary by state based on available incentives. The Ola S1 has a stated range of around 120 kms while the S1 Pro has a range of around 180 kms. There also are other differences between the two trims like more colour options available on the S1 Pro - 10 in all, higher top speed of 115 kmph and a bigger battery pack.
