The announcement regarding opening of purchase window comes at a time when consumer sentiments towards electric two-wheelers have been mixed. Notably, after several e-scooters fires and accidents, including those involving Ola scooters. In fact, earlier in March 2022, Ola had also issued a recall for 1,441 units of its S1 Pro electric scooter to run ‘pre-impact diagnostics and health check-ups’. Ola, however, has said that the fire on the S1 Pro was an isolated incident based on its preliminary investigation. The company said that the investigation is still ongoing.
