Earlier this week, Ola Electric ramped up the production of the S1 scooters to 1000 units a day. The company’s CEO Bhavesh Aggarwal also announced that Ola Electric will soon be opening the payment window for remaining customers. Now, Aggarwal has announced the date at which the final purchase window of the Ola S1 electric scooter will open.
Earlier today, the Ola Electric CEO took to Twitter to reveal that the final purchase window will open on January 21st at 6 PM for customers who have previously booked an S1 scooter and already paid the initial Rs. 20,000. The eligible customers will need to pay the remaining sum on the Ola app to initiate the delivery process.

The delivery process is said to commence from January end and customers will likely receive their S1 scooters by the end of February.
The announcement comes as a sigh of relief for customers who had previously paid the Rs 20,000 deposit but Ola had to close the final payment window due to hindrance in production caused by the ongoing global chip shortage.
The company has also announced that they are working on the missing features in the S1 scooters like cruise control, hill hold, navigation and they will be added to the e-scooters till July 2022 via an OTA software update.
