Ola S1 X price after discount, range, features.

Ola has rolled out a Rs 20,000 discount on the S1 X+ electric scooter, bringing its price down to Rs 89,999 (ex-showroom, India). This discount is applicable to all S1 X+ bookings for the month of December 2023. 

  1. S1 X gets LCD display, not TFT like on S1 Air, S1 Pro
  2. Uses same powertrain as S1 Air

The S1 X+ sits at the top of the S1 X e-scooter line-up and is powered by a 3kWh battery rated at a claimed 151km IDC range. Ola claims ‘True Range’ for the S1 X+ in Normal mode is 100 km and in Eco mode, that number rises to 125km. 

The S1 X+ has the same powertrain as the S1 Air, which means its hub motor is rated for 2.7kW (continuous), 6kW (peak) and a claimed top speed of 90kph. We’ve ridden the Ola S1 Air briefly and to read our review, tap here. Boot space is the same 34 litres as on the other Ola e-scooters

At the launch of the S1 X lineup a few months ago, Ola claimed deliveries will begin in September but currently no S1 X e-scooters have yet reached customers. We have been given to understand that they will begin by this week.
