Ola S1 Pro Gen 3 Advanced Technology
The Ola S1 Pro Gen 3 showcases significant advancements in tech, enhancing performance whilst improving safety and comfort.
The Ola S1 Pro Gen 3 comes equipped with a mid-drive motor with an integrated Motor Control Unit (MCU), instead of a hub motor used in the previous generations. Ola claims that this will increase the overall reliability and efficiency by five times, making the scooter more lightweight.
In addition, the brand has cut down the number of processing boards in the Ola S1 Pro Gen 3 into a single board, unlike the Gen 2 which featured three separate boards in the head unit. This upgrade enhances the overall performance as well as lowers the cost of the electric scooter.
The Ola S1 Pro Gen 3 scooter will also be equipped with a chain drive transmission with pre-lubricated O-rings instead of a belt drive, increasing the life efficiency by two times.
