Ola Electric has rolled out a new customer-focused initiative called HyperDelivery in Bengaluru, allowing buyers to complete vehicle registration and take delivery on the very same day. The move is part of Ola’s broader Hyperservice strategy, aimed at reducing delivery timelines, improving transparency, and enhancing the overall ownership experience.

What Is HyperDelivery?

HyperDelivery eliminates the long waiting periods typically associated with two-wheeler purchases.

Under this initiative:

  • Customers can purchase an eligible Ola electric scooter
  • Complete documentation and registration within hours
  • Take home a fully registered scooter on the same day

The service is currently exclusive to Bengaluru and is available through:

How Ola Made Same-Day Delivery Possible

The key enabler behind HyperDelivery is Ola Electric’s shift to a fully in-house registration process.

In March 2025, Ola discontinued third-party registration agencies and brought the entire RTO process under its direct control. This move allows:

  • Faster document verification
  • Quicker approvals
  • Better coordination with authorities

Additionally, Ola’s direct-to-consumer (D2C) and vertically integrated business model—covering manufacturing, logistics, software, and retail—has helped streamline operations and drastically cut delivery timelines.

Why This Move Is Important Right Now

HyperDelivery comes at a critical moment for Ola Electric.

As per FADA data, Ola recorded a 71.35% year-on-year drop in sales in November 2025 compared to November 2024. Long delivery timelines and customer dissatisfaction have been cited as key concerns.

By offering same-day registration and delivery, Ola aims to:

  • Remove a major friction point in EV buying
  • Improve customer confidence
  • Attract impulse and first-time EV buyers
  • Regain momentum in a highly competitive electric scooter market

Customer Experience Takes Priority

With HyperDelivery, Ola Electric is clearly positioning itself as a convenience-first EV brand. Instant delivery not only enhances customer satisfaction but also sets a new benchmark for speed in the Indian two-wheeler industry.

If the Bengaluru pilot proves successful, Ola is expected to expand HyperDelivery to other major cities across India in the coming months.

So, what do you think — would same-day registration and delivery make you more likely to buy an electric scooter like the Ola S1 Pro Plus, or do you still prefer the traditional buying process? Tell us your thoughts in the comments below!
