The Ola Gig is a barebones scooter as it does not get any panels. The Gig gets a single LED headlight. Ola Gig is available in two variants: Gig and Gig+. The standard Gig is a slow-speed scooter which gets no panels and no infotainment display, a single seat with a storage rack at the rear.
The scooter gets a 1.5kWh battery capacity and is paired to a 250W motor. Ola claims the standard Gig will reach a top-speed of 25kmph and have a certified range of 112km. The standard Gig gets a single portable battery.
The Gig+ comes with panels at the front, gets an LCD screen and a single seat with a storage rack behind it. The scooter comes with a single 1.5kWh battery which is extendable to two. The battery is paired to a motor which makes 1.5kW and has a claimed top-speed of 45kmph. Ola claims that the scooter with a single battery will deliver a range of 81km and with dual batteries it will do 157km on a full charge.
Ola S1 Z and S1 Z+
Ola S1 Z gets a design which we might have previously seen on other electric scooters. The scooter gets LED lights all round and is available in two variants: Z and Z+. The difference between the standard Z and Z+ is that of accessories. The Z gets a standard double seat while the Z+ gets a single seat with storage rack on the front apron and in-place of the rear seat.
Both the Z variants come with a single 1.5kWh battery which can be extended to two and makes a peak power of 3kW. Ola claims the scooters will reach a top-speed of 70kmph, do the 0-40kmph sprint in 4.7 seconds and will have a range of 75km with a single battery and 146km with dual batteries. The scooter rides on 14-inch wheels on both ends, gets an LCD screen and smartphone connectivity.
