Pros Cons of Ola Electric S1 Air

Pros

  • Affordable pricing at Rs 1.10 lakh, offering a competitive entry into electric mobility
  • Lightweight at 108 kg, making it nimble and easy to handle
  • Packed with tech features like a 7.0-inch touchscreen, connected navigation, and multiple ride modes

Cons

  • Drum brakes at both ends, which could offer less stopping power compared to disc brakes
  • Overall build quality and finish could be improved, especially the paint and lower body sections
  • Range concerns remain, with real-world range still needing thorough testing

Verdict

The Ola S1 Air stands out as a practical and budget-friendly electric scooter for city commuters. With good performance, a flat floorboard for added convenience, and a tech-packed dashboard, it provides a strong alternative to petrol scooters. However, its build quality and the need for further testing on real-world range and long-term reliability leave some room for improvement. For those looking for an affordable and tech-savvy electric scooter, the S1 Air is a worthy contender in the growing EV market.

Pros Cons Ather 450

Pros

  • Great on performance and handling
  • Sharp design is a headturner
  • Easy to use interface

Cons

  • Uncomfortable seating for tall riders
  • Limited range
  • Slightly stiff suspension

Verdict

It is a viable alternative to a conventional scooter offering impressive performance, excellent riding dynamics and, sheer practicality despite the limited range. The scooter's tech-laden nature also makes it quite the gadget to have. With an asking price of about ₹ 1.25 lakh (on-road, Bangalore), the Ather 450 isn't too differently priced than the top-of-the-line iPhone. In either case, it's a premium for what's on sale but we do think it's a worthy buy, for you will enjoy the experience.
