With the launch of its entry-level and highly anticipated model, the Ola S1 X, Ola Electric, India's largest producer of electric scooters, has once again made waves in the country's two-wheeler EV market. The brand-new S1 X has been rolled out in the Indian market with a starting price tag of Rs 89,999 (ex-showroom). The buying window for all three of its variations, which are all available, begins today. The Ola S1 X has a top speed of 90km/h and a range of 151-kilometre on a single charge. The Ola S1 X is set to sit below the other EV scooters in the maker's current model lineup in terms of price. According to the firm, the Ola S1 X is a scooter that aims to close the gap between cost and outstanding performance, considering the full range of the company's product offerings. With the S1 Air serving as the industry standard, the S1 X is expected to draw an even larger audience thanks to its affordable price, appealing to both budget-conscious buyers and those who are unfamiliar with the world of electric vehicles.

MoveOS 04 Software
A new update for Ola Electric's S1 line of electric scooters was recently announced. The manufacturer has also rolled out the new MoveOS software together with the new electric scooters. The MoveOS 4 is going to introduce a host of new features in its fourth edition. One such feature, called Concert mode, is an extension of MoveOS 3's Party mode. When in Party mode, the electric scooter's lights synchronise with the music being played through the scooters. The features will be available starting today, according to the Bengaluru-based brand's social media accounts.
But not only that. Ola Electric has also upgraded the scooter's moods. Essentially, moods are various computer display home screens. Depending on the setting the rider has chosen, the scooter alters the acceleration sound. There are currently three available mood selections comprising light, dark, and auto choices. The OS3 software, which includes a variety of other features such as music control, call, and SMS notifications, and themes, among others, is currently installed on all Ola S1 scooters. Along with the Move OS4 update, Ola has incorporated the final versions of the proximity lock/unlock and hill hold for the S1 e-scooter.
