Ola Electric started rolling out MoveOS 3 update to its Ola S1 and the Ola S1 Pro electric scooters in India today. The announcement was made at a special launch event in Bengaluru. Notably, Ola had first announced its next-gen operating system for its electric scooters, that is, MoveOS 3 in October this year. At the time, the company had said that the update will be available to Ola EVs users sometime in December this year. Now, nearly two months later, the company has officially started rolling out the MoveOS 3 update to its users. Ola said that it will deliver MoveOS 3 update to more than one lakh EVs across the country via over-the-air (OTA) update and that it is expected to complete the roll out within a week.
At the event, the company also clarified that the company’s newly launched electric scooter, that is, the Ola S1 Air, will also be getting the MoveOS 3 update. Additionally, Ola Electric CEO Bhavish Aggarwal also touched on the subject of what lies ahead for the company in the coming year.
At the event, Aggarwal said that the company had many new products lined up for 2023 including an electric bike. He said that in time Ola Electric aimed to roll out electric bike across various price segments in the future. When asked about the company launching an electric car — which the Ola executive had teased a couple of months back — he said that the electric car was under works that the company was planning to launch it sometime in 2024.
