Roadster X Series: Ola Electric’s Game-Changer in EV Motorcycles
The Roadster X marks a bold entry for Ola into the high-performance electric motorcycle market. Designed and manufactured at the state-of-the-art Futurefactory in Tamil Nadu, the bike combines design innovation with real-world practicality. It targets both urban and long-distance riders alike.
With its chain drive and integrated MCU setup, the bike promises precise torque delivery. This leads to smoother acceleration and a more engaging riding experience. Additionally, the addition of flat cables not only reduces weight but also enhances heat dissipation. This contributes to better overall durability.
Another standout is the adoption of brake-by-wire technology — a first in its segment — which replaces traditional mechanical linkages with electronic control. This improves response and safety. This system is paired with Ola’s MoveOS 5, enabling futuristic features such as cruise control and reverse assist. It makes the vehicle smart in more ways than one.
The pricing strategy — ranging from ₹84,999 to ₹1,84,999 — makes it competitive across segments. The premium variant with a 9.1kWh battery delivers an unmatched 501 km range, indicating Ola’s focus on long-range electric travel. The inclusion of a serviceable BMS also hints at cost-effective maintenance and longer vehicle life.
With the Roadster X, Ola Electric is not just launching a motorcycle. It’s redefining what the future of two-wheel EVs in India looks like. It blends innovation, smart tech, and accessibility.
