Ola Electric Bike Teaser

The latest teaser of Ola Electric’s upcoming bike has been shared by the company’s official page. In this teaser, we can note that the front fascia of this naked street fighter motorcycle will be very sleek. The bike’s front fascia will feature a distinctive twin LED headlamp unit. It will also be accompanied by an LED DRL strip positioned above the lights.

The teaser also highlights that this setup has been enclosed within a cowl. This cowl could either be finished in piano black or matched to the bike’s body color. Eagle-eyed viewers will note that the headlamp design, while unique, shares some similarities with the Ola S1 electric scooter range.

Additionally, the new teaser also shows that the upcoming Ola Electric bike will boast a wide, one-piece handlebar. It could offer comfortable handling and easy steering, as this bike will be targeted at buyers.

The teaser also hints at aggressive faux tank extensions, which are expected to have integrated turn indicators. Interestingly, this design appears to be different from the four concept motorcycles that Ola Electric showcased last year. This suggests that the company could be taking a fresh and innovative approach for this production model.

Presently, Ola Electric has kept many specifics about this electric motorcycle under wraps. However, there is strong speculation that the upcoming e-bike will be offered with advanced features.

The motorcycle could also feature a right-side-up telescopic front fork, which is a very conventional but reliable choice. Additionally, it has been confirmed that the bike will utilize a chain final drive.

It is expected to include a touchscreen display, a feature that could enhance user experience. Additionally, the bike may also come equipped with electronic ABS. Ola Electric is likely to position this new motorcycle in the premium commuter segment.

Once launched, the Ola Electric motorcycle will enter a competitive market. It will be going head-to-head with other high-performance electric motorcycles such as the Ultraviolette F77 Mach 2 and the Matter Aera. These rivals have already been established in the industry.

Ola Electric’s Expansion Plans

Apart from the launch of the new electric motorcycle, Ola Electric, which has already established itself as a leader in the electric scooter market with models like the S1 Pro, S1 Air, and S1X, is now planning to launch more electric motorcycles in India.

Ola Electric has also announced plans to develop its own EV batteries, which will be used in future models starting in 2025. These in-house batteries are expected to be the largest used in any electric motorcycle in India. With these new batteries, the company aims to offer greater range and performance.
