Will the remarkable Ola S1 be the most important motorcycle of the 21st century?

India's Ola Electric is mounting a huge assault on the motorcycle market with the clever, cheap, high-tech S1 scooter. Talk about volume; Ola's building the world's biggest motorcycle "Futurefactory," capable of producing 10 million bikes a year. Put another way, that's a bike every two seconds. Put yet another way, when this 500-acre, carbon-negative, 10 production line, 3,000-plus robot behemoth starts manufacturing at full capacity, it will be making more than one-seventh as many motorcycles as the entire global industry does today. There are ambitious plays, and then there's this kind of thing. It could be genius, staking India's claim as the world authority in high-volume, all-market electric vehicles. It could be pure hubristic megalomania. Read more: https://newatlas.com/motorcycles/ola-electric-scooter-india/ https://youtu.be/tKEIPGWnJO0

      I am afraid that isn’t enough ! Required changes are probably deeper and more important…. We’ll see them tomorrow !

        These are the kinds of movements we want to see in large countries like that. I hope it meets its targets and makes a real difference. Looking forward to seeing Ola's development!
