December 2021 Auto Sale: Ola Electric sells over 200 S1, S1 Pro scooters

Ola Electric has recorded delivery of 111 S1 and S1 Pro electric scooters till December 30. Federation of Automobile Dealers Association (FADA) President Vinkesh Gulati took to Twitter and shared the data from the Centre's Vahan portal.

However, Ola Electric has not come out with the data on its deliveries yet but it has issued a statement mentioning that the Vahan data for December is over 200, and the rest will get updated with a lag.

With a claim of 10Mn capacity, @OlaElectric sells mere 111 vehicles in Dec. Is Direct to Customer concept posing a big hindrance? Is it for real or just another media/startup hype company? he tweeted.

Ola Electric delivered its S1 and S1 Pro electric scooters maximum in Karnataka and its home-base Tamil Nadu. Out of the 111 electric scooters delivered, 60 of them were in Karnataka and 25 in Tamil Nadu, according to a chart shared by Gulati. Maharashtra and Rajasthan are the only two other states to register Ola Electric scooters last month with 15 and 11 units, respectively.

On 31 December, Bhavish Aggarwal, Co-Founder & CEO, Ola Electric updated on December deliveries via tweet that "We’ve dispatched vehicles to ALL who purchased. Some in transit, most already at delivery centres near you getting through RTO registration process. The registration process took longer than we anticipated as a fully digital process is new for all."

Ola has expanded into advanced two-wheeler electric vehicles manufacturing at its Futurefactory. It has already started deliveries of its e-scooters - Ola S1 and S1 Pro.

The Ola electric price starts at Rs 99,999, and the S1 Pro starts at Rs 1,29,999. In states with active subsidy grants, the Ola S1 will be much more affordable than many petrol scooters. After state subsidy in Delhi, the S1 would cost just Rs 85,099, whereas in Gujarat it would be only Rs 79,999.
