The scooter is based on the Ola S1 Pro and Ola S1 and the design stays more or less similar on the S1 Air. But there are a few changes. The front end gets conventional telescopic suspension and shock absorbers at the rear. Both ends also get drum brakes and these two changes along with few other, have led to reducing weight to 99 kg, compared to 125 kg of the Ola S1 Pro. The seat is also new on the S1 Air along with getting a regular tubular grab-rails. The scooter has an underseat storage space of 34 litres, which is 2 litres less than what is found on the S1 and S1 Pro.
