- ByTejika Bajaj | December 16, 2021
Mobility startup Ola Electric has initiated the delivery of its S1 and S1 Pro EV scooters thus fulfilling the promise that it’s flagship scooters would hit the roads by mid-December. The delivery of the scooters come after a delay of one month as the startup was supposed to deliver the same between October 25 to November 25.
The EV maker organised special events for the first 100 customers in Bengaluru and Chennai which they attended with friends and family to take home their electric scooters.
“(It) is a landmark day for those who have joined the revolution with us as we begin our deliveries of Ola S1,” said Varun Dubey, Chief Marketing Officer, Ola Electric. “This is just the beginning of the revolution..,” he added.
Ola electric scooters S1 and S1 Pro were launched almost four months ago on August 15 while the company had opened the purchase window for the scooters only in September for two days. Last month, the EV maker had rolled out the largest-ever direct-to-consumer experience initiative, offering test rides across the country.
Ola Electric CEO Bhavish Aggarwal took to Twitter to share the news of the first set of deliveries of the electric scooters. “Goosebumps while hosting our first set of S1 customers at the Ola Campus… Thank you to all our customers who are the real reason behind the EV revolution. Through a pandemic, TN elections, global supply shortages. Happened because of the amazing talent at Ola who’re committed to our mission,” he wrote. Aggarwal further expressed his apology for the one-month delay in the delivery of the electric scooters. “A delay is a delay and we will ensure we do our best to meet our own very tight timelines and high quality standards,” he wrote.
