Ola e-bike services start in Delhi and Hyderabad, with fares from ₹25 for 5 km, ₹50 for 10 km and ₹75 for 15 km. Besides Delhi and Hyderabad, Ola plans to start an e-bike service in Bengaluru. Ola has set up 200 charging stations in Bengaluru to service its e-bike fleet. Ola has plans to deploy 10,000 electric two-wheelers across three cities in the next two months and gradually scale up its service across the country by the end of the year.
Hemant Bakshi, CEO Ola Mobility says in a media statement, "Following the massive success of our Bangalore e-Bike taxi pilot, we have proven its sustainable value proposition for all ecosystem participants - the consumer (lower price), the driver (higher earnings), and Ola (new category and revenues), and now look at mass deployments across Bengaluru, Delhi, and Hyderabad and build a larger market for e-Bike taxis in India". In September 2023, Ola launched a pilot project for an e-bike service in Bangalore.
