The Ola S1 Pro Plus is an electric scooter designed for urban and mixed-use riding in India, with a focus on higher performance and larger battery capacity compared to other models in the lineup. It is available with 4 kWh and 5.2 kWh lithium-ion battery options, which affect both range and overall performance. The scooter uses a mid-drive electric motor that produces around 13 kW of peak power and delivers strong acceleration, especially at lower speeds. The top speed is around 128 km/h for the 4 kWh version and goes up to about 140 km/h for the 5.2 kWh variant, while the acceleration from 0 to 40 km/h is roughly in the 2.1 to 2.3 second range.
The battery is fixed and cannot be removed, so charging is done using a home charger or through available charging networks. A full charge typically takes around 6 to 7 hours with a standard charger, while faster charging options can reduce the time required for partial charging depending on infrastructure availability. The claimed range is around 242 km for the 4 kWh version and up to 320 km for the 5.2 kWh version under standard test conditions. In real-world usage, the range is usually lower and depends on factors such as riding speed, selected riding mode, traffic conditions, and road quality.
In terms of design, the Ola S1 Pro Plus follows a familiar scooter layout with a smooth body design, flat floorboard, and a single-piece seat. The riding position is upright, making it suitable for daily commuting and longer city rides. The suspension setup includes telescopic front forks and a rear monoshock, which are tuned for regular road conditions. While the setup is designed to provide stability, uneven surfaces and potholes can still be felt, especially at higher speeds.
The braking system includes disc brakes at both the front and rear, supported by a combined braking system and, in some cases, single-channel ABS for better control. The scooter runs on 12-inch wheels, which are standard for this segment. It also provides a large under-seat storage space of around 34 litres, which can accommodate a helmet and other daily items.
The Ola S1 Pro Plus is equipped with a touchscreen TFT display that shows information such as speed, battery level, navigation, and ride statistics. It supports smartphone connectivity features like call alerts, navigation, and app-based controls. The scooter also receives over-the-air updates, allowing software improvements without visiting a service center. Additional features include multiple riding modes such as Eco, Normal, Sport, and Hyper, along with functions like reverse mode and regenerative braking.
