Ola S1 X+ Introduced at ₹1.29 Lakh: Long‑Range Claim, Key Specs, and What It Means

Ola Electric has introduced a new long‑range variant of its S1 X series, called the Ola S1 X+ 5.2 kWh, at an introductory price of ₹1.29 lakh (ex‑showroom). The offer is valid until April 15, 2026, after which prices may increase.

This update matters because it brings a much larger battery to Ola’s most accessible scooter line. The company is essentially trying to offer the kind of range and performance usually reserved for higher‑priced models, but at a more mainstream price. For Indian buyers who want an EV that can handle longer daily rides or occasional inter‑city runs, this could be a significant shift.

Below is a clear, simple breakdown of the launch, the claimed range, the main specifications, and how this model compares to other electric scooters in the same price band.

What is new in the S1 X+ 5.2 kWh?

The standout change is the 5.2 kWh battery pack, which is larger than the 4 kWh pack used in the earlier S1 X+ variant. This bigger battery is paired with Ola’s in‑house 4680 Bharat Cell technology, which the company says helps bring advanced EV tech to the mass market.

With the new pack, Ola claims an IDC range of 320 km and a top speed of 125 km/h. These are company claims based on the standard Indian Driving Cycle, which typically shows higher numbers than real‑world usage.

Price and availability: what buyers should know

The introductory price is ₹1,29,999 (ex‑showroom), valid only until April 15, 2026. After this date, the price is expected to go up.

For buyers, this means the current price is a limited‑time window. If you’re already considering the S1 X series, the price advantage is strongest during the introductory period.

The S1 X+ stands out mainly on battery size and claimed range. Some rivals may offer better refinement or broader service coverage, but Ola is clearly trying to win on range‑per‑rupee.

Conclusion

The Ola S1 X+ 5.2 kWh has been introduced at ₹1.29 lakh with a claimed 320 km IDC range, 125 km/h top speed, and a new 4680 Bharat Cell battery. The price is introductory and valid only till April 15, 2026.

This model sits in a key price band for Indian EV buyers who want long range without premium pricing. If Ola’s range claims translate to solid real‑world performance, this scooter could become one of the most practical choices in the mass‑market EV segment this year.
