Electric scooter manufacture Ola has finally started the test rides for its two electric scooters Ola S1 and Ola S1 Pro in India. Buyers can now take test drive of the electric scooter by booking a date. As per its previous announcement, Ola has started the appointment for test rides from today.

It is expected that Ola will announce the dates for test rides in other cities across India very soon.

The scooter can be booked at an unbelievably low price of Rs 499. The amount can be refunded upon cancellation of the booking.
