Ola Electric’s roadmap for 2026 is crystal clear: premium electric motorcycles, ShaktiUPS, and Container BESS are the headline acts.
The company seems determined to position itself as a high-tech, premium EV player rather than a mass-market disruptor.
Ola Electric Motorcycles due in 2026
But in the process, we at PlugInCaroo are guessing that Ola appears to have quietly sidelined its Gig scooter, Z-Series scooter, and even the much-discussed electric autorickshaw… the smallCar? well that could be 3-5yrs down the line.
These are the Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ) by Ola Shareholders:
1. Is Ola Electric a good company share to buy?
Plus Points of Ola Electric:
· Market Leader: Ola is India’s largest pure-play electric two-wheeler company, with strong brand recognition and aggressive product launches. It has sold nearly 1 million (10 Lakhs eScooters) … in comparison traditional big existing manufacturers ( TVS, Bajaj and HeroMotorCorp) have together sold around 1 million.
· PLI Certification: Its Gen 3 scooters are approved under India’s Production Linked Incentive (PLI) scheme, unlocking 13–18% sales incentives until 2028.
* Only Li-Ion Battery maker in India: Ola is the only battery Li-Ion Battery manufacturer in India… not only in Autos… but also otherwise there is not any other company making Li-Ion Batteries in India. Li-Ion batteries are very, very important not only in auto sectors but drones, defence equipment, energy storage, power backup anything and everything that consumes electricity more or less requires batteries.
Ola being the single company in Li-Ion Battery in India in spite of years of MoUs by other companies showcases that battery is the most difficult part in an EV to manufacturer… Bigger Companies have feared entering this sector. It also shows that in spite of many companies posturing that they will start making batteries tomorrow… it is not as easy as it seems.
· Tech Innovation: Ola has developed its own 4680-format, 46100, 46120 lithium-ion cells and rare-earth-free motors, reducing costs and supply chain risks.
As India gears up for the vibrant celebrations of Navratri, Ola Electric is preparing to electrify the season with a line-up of ground breaking products and technologies.
From high-performance scooters to futuristic motorcycles, Ola’s festive strategy is more than just a product launch—it’s a bold statement of intent.
Every year on 15 August, Ola Electric hosts its flagship event called Sankalp at its manufacturing facility in Tamil Nadu.
This annual gathering is strategically timed to coincide with India’s Independence Day, symbolizing the company’s commitment to national innovation and self-reliance in the electric mobility sector.
At first glance, Ola Electric’s recent challenges—delays in product launches, financial losses, and growing market skepticism—might seem like signs of a struggling company. However, a deeper analysis reveals that the reality is entirely different.
You know it … I know it… we all know it… the Petrol Industry is going to collapse. The people who REFUSED to innovate in Electric Vehicles are today feeling threatened. Are they using their clout in the various departments to PREVENT OLA ELECTRIC from selling electric scooters in the market?
NEVER IN THE HISTORY OF INDIA … almost EVERY department is taking action against one company… WHY?
If you google search “Problems with Chetak Electric Scooter” or Ather or iQube… you will find the exact same problems… THEN WHY ONLY OLA IS SINGLED OUT for INTENSE, REGULAR media coverage and govt dept action? … WHY?
When 1 company is trying to manufacture electric 2 wheelers, 3 wheelers and Li-Ion batteries to make India Self sufficient in energy… why these companies are trying to STOP it?
These petrol scooter companies refused to make eScooters until Ola Electric started… they refused to make electric autorickshaws until Ola Electric announced plans to start manufacturing of Ola Electric Rickshaw.
These petrol scooter companies who have grown super rich by a generation of peddling scooters… still have no plans of manufacturing Li-Ion batteries in India.
Do they have an Petrol/crude oil agenda?
Do they want to keep India a slave who is dependent upon Crude Oil?
Do they want to keep India a slave of buying the US Dollar?
Q1. Will these govt departments also take action other electric scooters having same problems?.. or are they waiting for Kunal Kamra to highlight these issues? …
Ola has a lot of plus on its side and just 1 minus point on its side.
The only minus point is its SOFTWARE GLITCHES on the VCU and Touch Screen. Ola is not the only company to suffer from it. Ather also has this problem.
Let us understand this problem thoroughly.
Software glitches on the VCU & Touchscreen is not just an Ola Electric or Ather problem… its quite common in a lot of vehicles with touchscreen. VCU is used with SIM Card to capture customer data. Ather started this stupid idea of capturing customer data… Ola blindly followed it. No other vehicle in India or any other country captures scooter user data… it is used only in premium vehicles.. not in poor man’s mode of travel.
But since Ather’s customers are premium customers from the higher middle class they either have a 2nd scooter or vehicle at home and are not as desperate as the Ola Electric Customer.
The guy who set fire to the Ola Showroom was depending upon the Ola Scooter to run errands and…
This video is proof enough to show why Ola is miles ahead of all of their competitors put together… Ola Electric sales reflect that.
