After opening the first purchase window for the electric scooter, Ola had announced selling scooters worth Rs. 1,100 crore. The company was expected to open the second purchase window on November 1, however, due to delays in deliveries, it was pushed to December 16. Recently, the company again pushed the purchase window to sometime in late January 2022. Last month, the company also began to invite based test rides for the electric scooters, in four cities - Delhi, Kolkata, Ahmedabad and Bengaluru. It was later expanded to over 1000 cities and towns.

The Ola S1 is priced at Rs. 85,099, going up to Rs. 1.10 lakh (all prices, ex-showroom Delhi after FAME II subsidies). The prices could further go down at the time of delivery, depending on state subsidies on EVs across the country. The base model Ola S1 will come with a top speed of 90 kmph and a range of up to 121 km on a single charge. The S1 Pro, on the other hand, will offer a top speed of around 115 kmph and a range of up to 181 km.
