BikeDekho Says
While Ola Electric offers several variants, the brand has not specified which one in particular has hit the roads. We believe Ola might start off with the lower variant first, followed by the more expensive ones phase-wise. Will they be flawless in terms of their functionality? Will they be able to consistently achieve a real-world range that’s good enough to impress petrol-powered commuter bike buyers? We’ll have to wait and see.
