The most recent iteration of Ola Electric's e-scooter software platform, called Move OS 4, allows for enhanced routing and a quicker, more precise search feature, according to the startup. A year after Ola announced that it was creating a specific navigation system for its cars and apps, the company has announced that Ola navigation will be used for commercial purposes on Ola EVs.
Ola Electric submitted its DRHP to SEBI last month in an effort to raise more than INR 5,500 Cr through an IPO. On Thursday, January 18, Ola Electric released its in-house Ola Maps commercially along with the widespread release of the Move OS 4 software platform for its electric two-wheelers.
The most recent iteration of Ola Electric's e-scooter software platform is called Move OS 4. MoveOS 4, according to the electric two-wheeler firm, has elevated navigating to an entirely new plane with Ola Maps.
Improved navigation and a quicker, more precise search function are made possible by the updated software. Ola Electric claims that the revised user interface makes it easy for users to access necessary functionality without ever leaving the navigation screen.
Furthermore, Ola Maps gives users the ability to mark their favourite spots for a fully customised navigation experience. Through Bluetooth, users may even locate their scooter by pushing places from their phone to it. One year after Ola announced it was working on a specialised maps system for its cars and applications and will soon be launching the system, the company announced that Ola Maps would be used for the first time on Ola EVs for commercial purposes. We are evaluating our own Ola maps! will launch in a few months on our cars and the Ola app! Bhavish Aggarwal, the CEO of Ola, stated in January of 2012. Ola Electric added that MoveOS 4 will provide over 100 new features and enhancements to the Ola S1 Gen 1 scooter range, S1 Pro (2nd Generation), and S1 Air. The update for S1 X+ is scheduled for the upcoming months.
The business claimed that in addition to Ola Maps, the updated software version also includes enhancements to "Hill Descent Control" and the addition of "Cruise Control in eco-mode."
