On August 15 last year, Ola Electric unveiled four futuristic e-motorcycle concepts, sparking much anticipation. Recently, the company’s CEO, Bhavish Aggarwal, shared a revealing image on social media, hinting at the upcoming electric bike. The image features a substantial battery pack within a tubular chassis, indicating significant advancements.
- Visible Components: The image displays a front sprocket, chain final drive, and a footpeg, confirming the bike’s electric nature. The beginning of a seat is also visible, positioned nearly level with the top of the battery pack.
- Comparison to Other Models: The design resembles other electric bikes like the Ultraviolette F77 Mach 2 and Matter Aera, suggesting a competitive edge.
Upcoming Announcement
Speculation is rife that Ola’s first e-bike might be unveiled as soon as next month, potentially on August 15, a date known for significant announcements from the company.
Market Strategy
Ola Electric dominates India’s e-scooter market, largely due to its pricing strategy amidst decreasing subsidies. The S1 electric scooter lineup, priced between ₹74,999 and ₹1.29 lakh (ex-showroom, India), exemplifies this approach.
What We Know So Far
Last year’s motorcycle concepts were in the early stages, but recent patents indicate more realistic and practical designs. The larger battery pack, evident in the teaser image, sets this e-bike apart from most Indian e-scooters.
Stay tuned for more updates as Ola Electric gears up for its next big reveal, potentially revolutionizing the electric motorcycle market in India.
