After Uber and Rapido, Ola has announced its entry in the bike taxi segment. The company will deploy 10,000 e-scooters in Delhi and Hyderabad in the coming months. Claimed to be the most affordable way of intracity travel, Ola's ride fares start from as low as Rs. 25 for 5 km.

Commenting on the launch, Hemant Bakshi, CEO, Ola Mobility said, “Electrification is the biggest lever to unlock affordability in the mobility space. At Ola, driving affordable mobility through electrification is our priority and in line with our vision to serve 1 billion Indians. 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 Bangalore, Delhi and Hyderabad and build a larger market for e-Bike taxis in India. With our focus on innovation, and accessibility, our e-Bike taxi initiative will also serve as a multi-work opportunity for gig-economy workers on the Ola platform and pave the way for the future of commerce.”
