Launched almost a year ago, the Ola S1 Pro has been breaking new records with its range. The recent MoveOS 2.0 update seems to have made things even better, with users now reporting a range of over 300 kilometres on the e-scooter with a single charge. Two riders posted images of the S1 Pro’s dashboard on Twitter.

According to the image shared by Ola S1 Pro owner Satendra Yadav, the scooter ran at an average speed of 20 kmph with a max speed of 38 kmph. Yadav breached the 300 km barrier on a full charge and still had 3 km or 5% battery left on the e-scooter. Meanwhile, fellow S1 Pro owner, Jigar Bharda, operated the scooter at 23 kmph on average, with a max speed of 40 kmph. Upon reaching 300 km, Bharda’s S1 Pro had 4% battery (1 km) left.
Ola claims the S1 Pro can run for roughly 180 kilometres on a full charge. While some customers were already crossing the 200 km mark quite comfortably, the arrival of the MoveOS 2.0 update for the e-scooter has clearly taken things to the next level.
Despite the impressive range and performance, the S1 Pro isn’t without its faults. The aforementioned MoveOS 2.0 update also comes with a few bugs on board. Ola Electric is expected to fix these issues with a future update.
The company recently teased its upcoming EV
Ola Electric is off to a great start in the electric scooter business. But the company’s ambitions don’t stop there. This was illustrated by Ola’s unveiling of an EV (electric vehicle) concept during Ola Customer Day last month.
