OLA would be launching the new OLA s1 Gen 3 series today 31 January 2025. The manufacturer themselves shared the news through their official social media handle. The Gen-3 would offer a major update above the second gen that is being sold in India right now.

The Gen 3 platform would consist of 3 main components: a new battery, motor as well as a control unit. OLA has introduced new innovative changes to the vehicle, in the Gen 3 the battery would be a structural component of the scooters frame.

New Battery Cells

As per the brand this would help in making the body more shock resistant. Beyond this change the cells that OlA would use in their battery would be different as well. As per OlA the cell they would use have been developed in India-these cells have the intrinsic ability to carry more charge and are more energy dense. The Current cells the 2170 are much more inferior than the cells that Ola would use in the 3rd generation.

New Generation 3 Motor

The new motor would not be the permanent magnet one- As per OLA they would be using the new magnetized electric coil motors. This would result in much better thermal efficiency of the motor. This would further improve the overall performance of the vehicle.

New ECU

The OLA Gen 3 scooters would have completely new motor control unit- this new module would be integrated into the motor. Further OLA has integrated MCU and battery management system into a single chip. As per OLA with the help of all these changes they would be able to give their vehicle new addled features such as (ADAS) into their scooters in the future. OLA seems to be in a pursuit to bring up a whole selection of new vehicles that could possibly involve the gen 3 platform as well as a new Bike the arrowhead. As of yet it seems apparent that the new scooters would have better range, shorter charging time and more features.

OLA Arrowhead New Bike

As per the images that have been shared online the bike looks like a futuristic vehicle with coloured panels that extend all the way from the tank till the battery carrier of the bike. No further details have been revealed by OLA.

The post has sparked a discussion over the internet, users have disclosed their reactions about the post on twitter. While Few comments have showcased an interest towards the new bike, while a few showcase a sardonic reaction towards the imminent arrival of the bike.

A user commented  ‘Arrowhead better not be the arrow that points to the service center every week.’- taking a jibe at the issues that surfaced at first with the when the s1 range was first delivered. Other users have commented that they are eagerly waiting.

The Comments also shows that users are impressed by the color and design of the arrowhead. This would be one of the most anticipated bikes that would be launched in India.

Sports Bike A tourer Or a Commuter ?

Ola itself seems to be in the pursuit of building up angst amongst the users. This could be the reason why the brand has not revealed any details about the new vehicle. The Bike would be built on the Gen 3 platform, the same would underpin the other vehicles that might be launched soon in India. Such launches would help e the brand to penetrate into different market segments instead of the commuter scooters. The current line up of Ola consists of S1, S1x as well as the S1pro.
