Ola Electric has announced test rides for its electric scooters, the Ola S1 and Ola S1 Pro, from November 10, 2021, but with one rider. The test rides of the S1 and S1 Pro may not be available in all cities, and only those who have paid in advance for the electric scooter will get a chance to test ride the scooter. The test rides for the S1 and S1 Pro electric scooters will be offered in only four cities for now, which include Delhi, Kolkata, Ahmedabad and Bengaluru. Hence, the test ride is still not being offered in all the cities where the brand’s electric scooter was offered for booking.

The Ola S1 electric scooter gets a maximum range of 181 km with a top speed of 115 kmph in the S1 Pro variant.
Ola Electric is facing criticism on social media for delaying the deliveries of the electric scooter, with customers unable to test ride the new electric scooter. In September 2021, Ola Electric announced that the company had sold scooters worth ₹1,100 crore, and deliveries were expected to begin in October this year, postponing the delivery date in view of various challenges. This has exasperated the customers who still haven’t got a chance to test ride the electric scooter.
