Living up to being an addition to the premium segment of e-scooters, the Okhi-90 comes packed with a 3.6kWh removable lithium-ion battery, offering a claimed range of 160km.
On the other hand, the Ola S1 Pro gets a slightly bigger but non-removable 3.97kWh lithium-ion battery pack and offers a claimed ARAI range of 180km and company claimed true range of 135km.

For extra practicality, it also features an apron-mounted glove box and twin utility hooks, all LED lighting, and a light sensor for the headlight.
