So, how does the Ola S1 Pro cope with Indian roads?

Having ridden both the ICE scooters and the S1 Pro, I’d say it’s on par with the vast majority of scooters in its class. It is not exceptionally good or bad – just average for Indian roads.

In fact, the handling is pretty good, even on less than ideal roads. The problem is ground clearance more than anything. Traditional scooters do not require as much awareness of obstacles as you do.
Is this Ola S1 Pro’s range anxiety really a thing?

Most of the range anxiety is in your head, quite honestly. I’ve had my S1 Pro for over a year, and I’ve never once run out of juice. So plan your trips and you're good to go, you can use Eco mode when you need to.

That depends on how far you drive each day. If you are doing 50-70 km a day like me you will be ok. If you are pushing 100+ km a day, you may need to be a bit more careful about how you charge.

It’s true, range anxiety is real, especially when you’re new to EVs. It’s better over time with the S1 Pro. You learn to trust the battery and plan around it. The regen braking helps a lot in extending range, plus.

I think it's overhyped. For a scooter, the S1 Pro’s range is pretty good. For daily use you'll be fine, but don't expect to do long highway trips on it.

It’s not about the range, it’s about the charging infrastructure. Range anxiety is a non issue if you have a reliable charging setup at home or work. The issue comes when you’re using public chargers that may or may not be functional.

The S1 Pro is part of the EV experience, and that includes range anxiety, but it's easy to manage. Using Normal mode I have found to be a good balance of performance and range for what I need.

I switched from a petrol scooter and range anxiety is real, but overblown. Adapt your mindset and plan a bit more and you’re good. While range worry happens once in a while, the convenience of charging at home wins out.
How good is the software and app connectivity of the Ola S1 Pro?
28 January 2025 09:14
The software is hit or miss. It works flawlessly some days, and it's a nightmare other days. I have had the app not connect, the app randomly reboot, and laggy UI. While it’s getting better with updates, it’s not 100% reliable.
How good is the software and app connectivity of the Ola S1 Pro?
28 January 2025 09:14
To be honest I’ve had a pretty good time with the software. It's sure to have some occasional hiccups, but nothing major. In fact, the OTA updates have made the scooter better over time.
How good is the software and app connectivity of the Ola S1 Pro?
28 January 2025 09:14
The joke of the app connectivity. It's half the time doesn't work, and half the time when it does it's slow. I've abandoned the app features and use the scooter as a regular EV.

It's a mixed bag. They're cool when they work, but they're not necessary. I can’t get enough of cruise control and riding modes, but I’m good without app connectivity.

Actually, I enjoy the software aspect as a tech enthusiast. It's exciting to see new features roll out, but yes there are bugs. You get a new scooter with each major update.

It’s been a lot more reliable since launch. The early adopters had it rough, but if you’re buying now, the experience is much smoother. Just don't expect smartphone-level responsiveness.
How good is the software and app connectivity of the Ola S1 Pro?
28 January 2025 09:14
I think people expect the software to do too much. It's not a smartphone, it's a scooter. So as long as it gets me from A to B safely and efficiently I'm happy. It’s the smart features that are just a bonus.
