The unveiling of these electric marvels, including the S1X+, S1X 2kWh, and S1X 3kWh models, transpired at a high-profile Ola Event that garnered significant attention.

The Resurgent S1 Pro 2nd Gen

Central to this electric extravaganza is the revamped S1 Pro 2nd gen, a sophisticated e-scooter that boasts remarkable upgrades in performance and efficiency. With a genuine range of up to 170km and an ARAI-tested range of up to 195km, the S1 Pro 2nd gen shatters barriers in long-range electric mobility. Bolstering its credentials further, this e-scooter surges to a top speed of 120km/h, accelerating from 0 to 40km/h in a mere 2.6 seconds, a feat previously accomplished by its predecessor in 2.9 seconds.

Elevating Performance through Innovation

Peeling back the layers of innovation, the S1 Pro 2nd gen introduces a groundbreaking integration of its motor control unit within its motor. This ingenious amalgamation streamlines the architecture, reducing the component count from five to one. This leap in efficiency translates to a 30% surge in peak power output, delivering a formidable 11kW, and heralding a new era of electric prowess. The meticulous design extends to the battery pack, where complexity is pared down, resonating with the overall theme of streamlined performance.

Unveiling the Hybrid Frame Architecture

The S1 Pro 2nd gen boldly embraces a hybrid frame architecture, marrying the concepts of lightness and strength.
