Range and Charging
With 108 km of claimed range, this version covers short daily commutes comfortably. In real-world city riding, expect roughly 75 to 90 km, depending on ride mode and load. As a result, a rider covering about 25 km a day only needs to charge every three days. Since the battery is small, it reaches 80% in under 5 hours from a regular home socket, so even an evening top-up works well.
Running Cost
With home charging, the 2 kWh version costs roughly Rs 0.15 to Rs 0.20 per km to run. That works out to about Rs 150 for 750 km a month, compared with around Rs 1,500 in petrol for a 110cc scooter. Moreover, there’s no oil to change, which keeps service costs low. For students and first-time riders, these savings add up quickly.
Ola S1 X 2 kWh Features
Despite its low price, this version gets the full S1 X feature list. A 4.3-inch colour segmented display offers Bluetooth connectivity. Moreover, cruise control and reverse mode make daily riding easier. Riders can also switch between Eco, Normal and Sports modes. In addition, Ola’s brake-by-wire system and over-the-air updates come standard.
Should You Pick the 3 kWh Instead?
For Rs 15,000 more, the S1 X 3 kWh adds 68 km of claimed range and a higher 115 km/h top speed. Therefore, riders who cover more than 40 km a day should consider stepping up. However, the 2 kWh version still costs less than rivals like the Bajaj Chetak C3001, while offering quicker pickup and a much higher top speed.
