The S1 X lineup is like a simpler version of the S1 Air. It has a redesigned headlight, handlebar, circular rear-view mirrors, and a flat floorboard. The S1 X models have a smaller 4.3-inch segmented LCD display, unlike the larger 7.0-inch TFT touchscreen in the S1 Air and S1 Pro. They also come with a physical key, cruise control, and app connectivity. Buyers can pick from seven different colors for their scooter.
The Ola S1 X uses the same setup as the S1 Air, delivering a continuous output of 2.7 kW and a peak output of 6 kW. For the 3 kWh and 4 kWh versions, they can go from 0-40 kmph in just 3.3 seconds, hitting a top speed of 90 kmph. The 2 kWh version is a tad slower, taking 4.1 seconds for the 0-40 kmph sprint and reaching a top speed of 85 kmph.
When it comes to suspension, the S1 X sports a telescopic fork and twin shock absorbers connected to a double-sided swingarm. Riding on pressed steel wheels, it's fitted with drum brakes on both ends. Weight-wise, the 2 kWh variant weighs 101 kg, the 3 kWh variant weighs 108 kg, and the 4 kWh variant comes in at 112 kg.
