Ola S1 X+ 5.2 kWh uses the brand’s indigenously developed 4680 Bharat Cell and introductory prices are valid only till the middle of this month in India
The new Ola S1 X+ 5.2 kWh has been launched in India today and it could prove to be a game-changer in the mass-market electric scooter space. Priced at an introductory Rs. 1.29 lakh (ex-showroom), the latest addition to the S1 range brings long range capability and high performance hardware within reach of a wider audience.
The biggest highlight of the S1 X+ 5.2 kWh is the use of Ola’s indigenously developed 4680 Bharat Cell and introductory prices are valid only till the middle of this month. Ola Electric is effectively trickling down its in-house battery technology to a more accessible product following the price cut of the Roadster 9.1 kWh variant by Rs. 60,000.
The brand’s vertical integration strategy comprises cell manufacturing, battery pack development and complete vehicle production under one roof. On the performance front, the S1 X+ 5.2 kWh packs a serious punch. It is powered by an 11 kW mid-drive motor coupled with an integrated MCU – enabling a claimed IDC range of up to 320 km on a single charge.
