Launched in India in October last year, the S1 Air is Ola’s most affordable electric scooter. The scooter also has some differences over its more expensive siblings. While the overall design is similar to the S1 and S1 Pro, the Air gets a more conventional front fork compared to the single-sided unit on its siblings, twin shocks at the rear and steel wheels. It also features a black finished lower section and the electric motor is hub-mounted in place of the mid-drive unit.
