Ola Electric Launches Affordable Scooters Starting at ₹39,999 in India

With the release of its most affordable line of electric scooters yet, Ola Electric is making waves in the Indian market. The new lineup, which starts at just ₹39,999 (about $472), is made to meet the needs of a wide range of people, from those who travel short distances to those who need more range for longer trips. You can choose from the Ola Gig, the Ola Gig+, the Ola S1 Z, and the Ola S1 Z+. The scooters will be sent out starting in April and May 2025. This is a great chance for Indian buyers to switch to electric transportation.

Ola Gig is great for gig workers.

Starting with the Ola Gig, this service is made for gig workers who need to make short trips a lot. The Gig will take care of you whether you're bringing food or running errands. It has a 1.5 kWh battery that can be taken off and put back on. One charge gives it a range of up to 112 km. Not only does it save fuel, but it can also go as fast as 25 kmph, which makes it great for getting around town. Because the battery is removable, gig workers can quickly switch batteries and keep working without having to worry about stopping.

Ola Gig+ has more range, so you can go on longer trips.

The Ola Gig+ could be the right thing for you if you need something with a little more speed and range. The Gig+ is an improved version of the Gig that's made for people who need to go farther. It has two 1.5 kWh batteries that give it a range of 157 km, which makes it great for longer journeys. With a top speed of 45 km/h, the Gig+ is the perfect mix of speed and range, making it a great choice for both work and personal use.

The Ola S1 Z is a scooter for personal use.

The Ola S1 Z is a great choice for people who want a scooter for their own use. This model has two 1.5 kWh batteries that can be taken out and charged separately. It has a range of up to 146 km, so you can drive without worrying about running out of power. Also, the S1 Z has a top speed of 70 km/h and can go from 0 to 40 km/h in just 4.8 seconds, making it a fast and fun ride. The S1 Z offers a smooth and reliable ride, whether you're using it for your daily commute or a weekend trip.

The Ola S1 Z+ has bigger tires that make the ride more stable.

Last but not least, the Ola S1 Z+ is a better version of the S1 Z. The main difference is that it has 14-inch tires, which make it more stable, especially on rough roads. With this extra feature, the S1 Z+ is a safer and more comfortable choice, especially for people who might be going on uneven ground. This one has the same range and battery elements as the S1 Z. Its top speed is 70 km/h.

What Will Ola Electric Do Next?

Ola Electric is meeting a lot of different customer needs with these new electric scooters. They're great for gig workers, people who drive every day, and people who just like the thrill of a fast, green ride. The best thing about Ola is that costs start as low as ₹39,999, which means that more people can afford electric scooters. As we move towards more environmentally friendly ways to get around, these new launches are a great step forward.

We expect to start shipping these types in April and May 2025. If you've been thinking about getting an electric scooter, now might be the best time to do it!
