Ola Electric, which had in August last year made a foray into the green mobility space with the launch of its electric scooters, S1 and S1 Pro priced at Rs 99,999 and Rs 1,29,999, respectively, had postponed delivery timelines for its much-anticipated products citing the global semiconductor shortage issue.

The company will dispatch for the latest purchase during this month and February.

The company, after opening reservations at Rs 499 in July last year for its electric scooters, started the online purchase process in September and initially planned to start deliveries in October but was later pushed to November and then again to the second half of December last year. 

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 the RTO registration process. The registration process took longer than we anticipated as a fully digital process is new for all."
