After months of anticipation, Ola formally unveiled its electric scooter on Sunday. The Ola Electric Scooter marks the Indian company's maiden foray into the two-wheeler manufacturing segment.
In a video at the unveiling function, CEO of Ola Bhavish Aggarwal called for the need to reverse climate change and advance the development of the nation.
Harping on the symbolism of launching the Ola Electric Scooter on Independence Day, Aggarwal said just like the freedom struggle was a revolution that gave freedom to India, the company's electric vehicle revolution would give "freedom from petrol".
Aggarwal declared Ola's electric vehicle revolution was being started in India and would be taken around the world.
