ZigSays

The Ola S1 Pro+ Gen 3 is more feature rich, more powerful and offers the most claimed range on paper. It is also the more affordable scooter out of the two. The Ather 450 Apex on the other hand, is the more expensive scooter while offering a lower claimed range and lower range/performance figures. Where the Ather shines is that their claimed range is something which you can expect to receive in the rear world as well. Their after sales service is also comparatively better than that of Ola’s. If you want a reliable scooter with good after sales service and don’t mind spending a premium, the Ather 450 Apex is the one you should go for. But if you are someone who wants outright performance and loads of features but are willing to sacrifice on after sales service experience, the S1 Pro+ is the right choice for you.
