Ola Gen 3 platform-based e-scooter to debut by January 2025

Ola’s Gen 3 platform is said to deliver 26% better performance and a 22.5% reduction in costs.

According to a media report, Ola Electric will begin deliveries of its Gen 3 platform-based electric scooters by January 2025.

Ola Electric revealed its Gen 3 platform in August this year. The first e-scooters based on the latest architecture were expected to debut by March-April 2025. However, these are now expected to arrive much earlier. 

Ola’s Gen 3 platform is said to deliver 26% better performance and a 22.5% reduction in costs compared to the Gen 2 platform. It is scalable, and the battery, motor, and electronics have been integrated into a single unit, with the battery being a structural element.

The Gen 3 battery consists of 4,680 cells that are larger in diameter and have a 10% higher energy density. Ola has also improved the shock resistance and thermal efficiency of the batteries.

The new electric motor features magnetized electrical coils instead of permanent magnets, which are said to be more efficient and generate higher torque. Ola has also integrated the Battery Management System (BMS) and Motor Control Unit (MCU) into a single high-performance multi-core processor.
