The Ola S1 Pro has a unique feature that no other electric scooter in the segment offers. It comes with cruise control. He then talks about the pick up and speed of Ola S1 Pro. He mentions that S1 Pro felt a lot more faster and also offers a higher top speed. Ather 450X’s top speed is limited to 90 kmph while the Ola S1 Pro can do a top speed of 115 kmph. Ather achieves this top speed in Warp mode while the Ola uses the Hyper mode.

Then he talks about the overall look of both scooters. He says, Ather 450X has a sharper looking or bold looking design while Ola scooter gets a curvy and cute design. Ola offers more colour options that Ather too. Vlogger personally like the design of Ola scooter and  mentioned that it comes with bigger battery, motor and generates more power. Ola scooter offers a large underseat storage that can hold upto 2 riding helmets in it. The same is not possible in an Ather.

One of the things that he did not like about the Ola Scooter was the bump in the middle of footboard area. He felt that a flat floor would have provided better convenience to the rider. He was very impressed with the Ola S1 Pro and asked Ather to up their game and S1 Pro is a value for money product. It offers more range, power and is cheaper than Ather 450X.
