3. Ola S1 Pro – e-scooters

It ranks third on this list and has a 4 kWh battery with an ARAI-certified 181 km/charge range. It could travel 102 kilometres in Sport mode and 127 kilometres in Normal mode during our real-world test runs, which was respectably close to Ola’s real-world mileage of 135 kilometres at the time.
