The recent video mentioned that this scooter would have class-leading acceleration with top-notch handling and cornering ability. The scooter will have the largest-in-class boot space as well.
There are no details about the range or battery, and motor output. But, as per sources and reports, it is understood that Ola is targeting to deliver close to 150 km range on a single charge.
