The Ola Electric released the initial teaser picture of its all-new and stunning electric two-wheeler which have a integrated design and a removable banana-shaped battery that is easy to hold and can be charged anywhere.

Previously, Ola Electric had signed an MoU with the Tamil Nadu government for an investment of Rs 2,400 crore for setting up its first 500-acre site in the Krishnagiri District of Tamil Nadu, called Ola FutureFactory, which once completed, will create around 10,000 jobs in the district. Ola wanted to set up this facility as the world’s largest scooter manufacturing facility, Ola the Bengaluru company has an aim of 2 million Units annual capacity, once it became operational fully by  2022. Ola Electric has released the primary teaser images of its stunning electric two-wheeler. Ola has already planned to bring much more such design and software modernness to its entire line of Ola’s two-wheelers 

Ola says that the new factory will mobilize the decline of India’s import dependence during a key future sector like electric vehicles, and will help to boost local manufacturing, create thousands of jobs. The Ola factory has the aim to galvanize India’s electric vehicle (EV) ecosystem and also aim to establish India as a key player within the EV manufacturing world. The Ola Officials believe that India has its manpower, unique skill-sets, and demography which is all well placed and have the potential to be a global hub for the cutting edge as well as competitive manufacturing of EVs. The new factory will provide to customers in India as well as in markets around the world. Phase 1 of the Plant, with an annual capacity of around 2 million units,  will be ready by June 2021.

The huge-block will have all the production facilities in 43 acres and may include around 2 million-square-foot footprints, that can have house operations like- battery, paint shop, welding, motor, general assembly, finished goods and will also contain two supplier parts. Besides that, the plant will also have its own testing track. The Ola Plant will be built using Industry 4.0 smart manufacturing techniques, the Ola factory is planning to use 3,000 robots throughout the various operations. Ola has the aim to supply an electrical two-wheeler every 2 seconds. 

Details of Ola Electric Scooter: - 

As per renowned sources, the Ola Electric scooter is going to have a speed of more than 100kph, since it is still a kind of leak so we have to wait for the official confirmation so right now take this news with a pinch of salt. Most probably the Ola scooter is going to have the same banana-shaped removable lithium-ion battery which we have seen with the Etergo scooter, but the final capacity of the battery is yet to be confirmed. The Ola Electric scooter might have an equivalent unusual single telescopic front suspension, but as per sources, it may be changed for our riding environment and may have a low cost. The scooter may come with an unusual, modern-looking headlight with twin-pod LEDs that are encased within an LED strip. A fully coloured TFT instrument cluster with smartphone connectivity and more. The premium electric scooter segment in India currently has some challenging players just like the Ather 450X, Bajaj Chetak and also, the TVS iQube. Since these are sub Rs 2 lakh scooters, expect Ola Electric to launch its offering at a competitive price point and that we expect a figure of close to Rs 1.25 lakh.

The Ola Electric scooter launch in India is most-probably to happen in the second half of 2021. The Ola Scooter is going to compete directly with the rivals like- the Ather 450X, the Bajaj Chetak and the TVS iQube. The pricing of the Ola Scooter is going to be highly competitive compared to its rivals.

Official India launch of the electric scooter will likely happen later this year.
