Ola Electric EV scooters come packed with various features and riding modes. Our data showed that a significant portion of users weren't utilising these capabilities fully. To address this, we developed a gamified ride analytics system that not only educates users about different features and modes but also provides detailed insights into their riding patterns and environmental impact.

Many Ola Electric scooter users were unaware of or underutilising the various features and riding modes available to them. This lack of engagement with the scooter's full capabilities led to suboptimal user experiences and reduced the potential benefits of owning an electric scooter, such as energy efficiency and reduced environmental impact.

Our approach was to create a comprehensive, user-centric analytics system that transforms raw ride data into meaningful, actionable insights. By leveraging gamification principles, data visualization, and social sharing features, we developed a solution that not only educates users about their riding habits but also motivates them to explore the full potential of their Ola Electric scooters. The system is designed to cater to both data enthusiasts and casual riders, providing depth of information without sacrificing ease of use.

The implementation of our ride analytics system yielded far-reaching benefits that extended beyond mere feature adoption. We observed a significant shift in user behaviour towards more efficient and environmentally conscious riding practices. The gamification elements fostered a vibrant community of Ola Electric enthusiasts, turning users into brand advocates. Most importantly, the data-driven insights generated by the system provided valuable feedback for Ola Electric's product development, creating a virtuous cycle of continuous improvement in both the scooters and the user experience.
