Range and Charging
With 242 km of claimed range, this version covers most riders’ weekly needs comfortably. In real-world city riding, expect roughly 170 to 190 km, depending on ride mode, traffic and load. As a result, a rider covering about 40 km a day only needs to charge every four or five days. A full charge from a regular home socket takes about 6 hours, so plugging in overnight works well.
Running Cost
With home charging, the 4 kWh version costs roughly Rs 0.15 to Rs 0.20 per km to run. That works out to about Rs 200 for 1,000 km a month, compared with around Rs 2,000 in petrol for a 110cc scooter. Moreover, there’s no oil to change, which cuts routine service costs.
Ola S1 X+ 4 kWh Features
This version gets the full S1 X+ feature list. A 4.3-inch colour segmented display offers Bluetooth navigation and call alerts. Moreover, cruise control helps on open stretches, while reverse mode makes parking easier. Riders can switch between ride modes, including Sports and Eco. In addition, over-the-air updates keep the software current. Compared with the regular Ola S1 X, it adds stronger performance and a higher top speed.
Should You Pick the 5.2 kWh Instead?
The S1 X+ 5.2 kWh adds 78 km of claimed range and Ola’s 4680 Bharat Cells, but costs Rs 43,000 more. Therefore, the 4 kWh version makes more sense for riders who cover under 50 km a day. It also undercuts family scooters like the Ather Rizta S on range per rupee, though the Rizta offers a larger display and a more established service network.
