Ola S1 Pro : The Ola S1 Pro has stormed back into the spotlight, blending cutting-edge tech with raw performance that makes every ride feel like a thrill ride.
This Gen 3 avatar, fresh off updates in late 2025, isn’t just an electric scooter – it’s Ola Electric’s bold statement in a market hungry for speed, range, and smarts.
A Look That Turns Heads Everywhere
Picture this: you’re zipping through Panipat’s bustling streets, and the Ola S1 Pro glides by with its sleek, futuristic lines that scream premium without trying too hard.
The angular LED headlamp slashes through the night like a laser, flanked by sharp DRLs that give it a predatory stance.
Its 12-inch tubeless tires on alloy wheels hug the road confidently, while the compact 791mm seat height makes it welcoming for riders of all sizes – no awkward hopping required.
I caught a glimpse of one parked outside a local cafe last week, its matte grey finish glistening under the winter sun, drawing envious glances from petrol scooter crowds.
Ola’s designers nailed the balance: aggressive enough for the young gun, practical for daily commutes, and now with six vibrant color options that let you personalize your ride.
Cockpit Packed with Futuristic Goodies
Slide onto the S1 Pro, and you’re greeted by a cockpit that feels ripped from a sci-fi flick.
The 7-inch touchscreen TFT dash is the star, running MoveOS5 – Ola’s latest software wizardry that handles navigation, music streaming, and even call/SMS alerts with buttery smoothness.
Bluetooth pairs instantly, turning your phone into an extension of the scooter, while USB charging keeps devices juiced on long hauls.
Dual speakers pump out tunes loud enough to drown out traffic hum, and the single-piece seat cradles you comfortably for hours.
What blew me away during a quick spin was the Hyper Mode button – a tap unleashes instant torque, making overtakes feel effortless.
Add regenerative braking that feeds energy back to the battery, and you’ve got an interface that’s intuitive yet loaded with Easter eggs like SOS alerts and traction control for slippery Haryana monsoons.
Power Delivery That Packs a Punch
At its heart, the S1 Pro’s mid-drive IPM motor cranks out a peak 11kW (about 15 bhp), with continuous power at 5.5kW, propelling it to a top speed of 117 km/h – blistering for an electric two-wheeler.
Acceleration? Zero to 40 km/h in just 2.7 seconds, thanks to the 3kWh battery that sips power efficiently.
Claimed range hits 176 km per charge in real-world tests (up to 242 km IDC), perfect for weekend escapes to Kurukshetra or daily office runs without range anxiety.
Charging from 0-80% takes about 7 hours at home, but portable fast chargers cut that down.
Riding modes – Eco, Normal, Sport, and the wild Hyper – let you toggle between sipping electrons for 135 km range or unleashing chaos.
Paired with twin telescopic forks up front and a monoshock rear, it devours potholes while dual disc brakes with CBS (and dual-channel ABS on top trims) haul it down safely every time.
Safety and Connectivity Smarts
Ola didn’t forget safety in the rush for speed; the S1 Pro wraps you in a cocoon of tech.
LED lighting everywhere ensures visibility, while the digital cluster’s trip meters and odometer track every kilometer precisely.
Internet connectivity unlocks over-the-air updates, remote diagnostics, and theft alerts via the Ola app – I once watched a friend locate his misplaced scooter in seconds.
Traction control and Bharat Mode optimize for Indian roads, preventing wheel spin on gravel or wet asphalt.
With a kerb weight around 113 kg, it’s nimble yet stable, and the 90/90-12 tires grip like glue.
Recent firmware tweaks in early 2026 addressed early wobble issues, making it more refined than ever.
Pricing That Hits the Sweet Spot
Kicking off at Rs 1.30 lakh ex-showroom for base variants, the top-spec S1 Pro Gen 3 climbs to Rs 1.75 lakh – a steal considering the features stacked against rivals like the Ather 450X or Bajaj Chetak.
On-road in Haryana, expect Rs 1.45-1.95 lakh after taxes, with financing options aplenty from Ola’s partners.
Battery warranty stretches eight years or 1 lakh km on select packs, slashing ownership costs since electricity is dirt cheap compared to petrol.
Waiting lists have shrunk post-festive season, but high demand in northern India means booking early at Ola Experience Centres.
Resale holds strong too, as EV adoption surges with government subsidies still in play.

The Ola S1 Pro Future of Commuting Unleashed
The Ola S1 Pro Gen 3 isn’t playing catch-up; it’s redefining what an electric scooter can be in 2026.
For tech-savvy riders tired of smoky two-strokers, it offers zero emissions, wallet-friendly running costs (under Rs 0.15 per km), and thrills that rival premium petrol bikes.
Competitors boast similar ranges, but none match Ola’s ecosystem of swappable batteries, hyper-fast service networks, and constant software upgrades.
Whether dodging Panipat traffic or cruising highways, it delivers joy without the guilt.
Head to an Ola store soon – this scooter’s not just transport; it’s your ticket to the electric revolution.
