Customers furious over delay in delivery
Let us tell you, Ola Electric had opened the pre-launch bookings for 499 of its electric scooters in July 2021 and in just 24 hours it has received 1 lakh orders. Despite the delivery schedule being fixed, the delivery of this electric scooter got delayed. The company had announced the delivery of the e-scooter on December 16 last year after customers came under pressure for delay in delivery. At the same time, the first 100 scooters have been delivered to the customers in Chennai and Bangalore.
