Deliveries also delayed, October deadline not met
So far, there has been a lot of hype surrounding Ola Electric and its new e-scooters, but of late, it hasn't necessarily been in the news for all the right reasons. The company has just announced that it will delay the 2nd purchase window for its S1 and S1 Pro scooters to 16 December, instead of the earlier 1 November. This news comes just after Ola failed to meet its October delivery deadline.
Ola says it has delayed the second purchase window so that it can focus on fulfilling existing orders before accepting new ones. With production having begun just a few days ago, it seems it will take Ola some time to clear its backlog of deliveries.
The Ola S1 and S1 Pro were launched on August 15 at Rs 1 lakh and Rs 1.3 lakh respectively. The first two-day purchase window was opened on September 15, after a one week delay. During this period, we estimate Ola received orders for upwards of 80,000 scooters.
