Simple ONE Gets 30,000 Bookings; Deliveries Starting From June

Simple One deliveries have gotten delayed and the company say they do not want to rush. Instead, they are working to improve the product further…

In August of 2021, while, on one hand, Ola Electric unveiled its scooters amassing huge hype amid tall promises, whereas, on the other another maker, Simple Energy silently launched their own electric scooter offering – Simple One. Following this development, last month one of their test-mules was also spotted being tested donning complete camouflage.

Ola, after a lot of delays, started with deliveries of its scooter. However, the initial lot has been troublesome as can be gauged by the responses of first owners. Rival Simple Energy is, however, being more cautious.

Few days back, Mr. Suhas Rajkumar (Founder and CEO, Simple Energy) took to Twitter to officially announce that the deliveries of their Simple One will commence from June of 2022.
