The X Factor: Power Meets Efficiency
The Roadster X series comes in three flavors, each more tempting than the last:
- Roadster X: Starting at a wallet-friendly ₹74,999, this base model packs a punch with its 7kW motor. Choose from 2.5kWh, 3.5kWh, or 4.5kWh battery options, offering ranges from 140km to a whopping 252km.
- Roadster X+ 4.5kWh: Priced at ₹1,04,999, this mid-range marvel boasts an 11kW motor that’ll have you zooming from 0-40kmph in just 2.7 seconds!
- Roadster X+ 9.1kWh: The crown jewel of the series, starting at ₹1,54,999. With its massive 9.1kWh battery utilizing 4680 Bharat Cell technology, it offers an jaw-dropping range of 501km on a single charge!
Tech That’ll Make Your Head Spin (But Not Your Wheels)
These aren’t just motorcycles; they’re rolling tech marvels. Every Roadster X comes equipped with:
- A 4.3-inch color LCD display that’s your window to all things Roadster
- Cruise control for those long, relaxing rides
- A reverse mode (because who hasn’t struggled with parking?)
- Advanced regenerative braking to squeeze every last kilometer out of your charge
- All-LED lighting to light up the night (and look cool doing it)
- Three ride modes: Normal, Eco, and Sport (for when you’re feeling frisky)
The X+ models up the ante with front disc brakes for extra stopping power. And let’s not forget the IP67 waterproof and dustproof battery – because your ride shouldn’t stop just because the weather does.
Built for Indian Roads, Indian Riders
Bhavish Aggarwal, the mastermind behind Ola Electric, puts it best: “Motorcycles are at the heart of India’s mobility landscape. With our electric motorcycles, we’re driving the EV revolution deeper into the core of Indian mobility.”
And he’s not wrong. The Roadster X series isn’t just built for India; it’s built to transform India. With a ground clearance of 180mm, these bikes are ready to take on everything from potholed city streets to rugged rural paths.
When Can You Get Your Hands on One?
Mark your calendars, folks! Deliveries for most models start in mid-March 2025. If you’ve got your eye on that long-range 9.1kWh beast, you’ll need to wait just a bit longer – April 2025 is your month.
And here’s the cherry on top: Ola is offering a ₹15,000 introductory discount across all models. Talk about sweetening the deal!
The Bigger Picture: Ola’s Electric Dream
The Roadster X series isn’t just about cool bikes (though they are incredibly cool). It’s about Ola’s vision for an electric India. This launch comes hot on the heels of their updated Gen 3 S1 electric scooter range, showcasing Ola’s commitment to electrifying every aspect of Indian mobility.
With features like the patented ‘Brake by Wire’ technology that increases range by 15% and doubles brake pad life, it’s clear that Ola is thinking long-term. They’re not just selling vehicles; they’re selling a sustainable future.

The Roadster X series is more than just a new line of motorcycles. It’s an invitation to be part of India’s electric revolution. Whether you’re a daily commuter, a weekend warrior, or someone who just appreciates cutting-edge technology, there’s a Roadster X waiting for you.
So, are you ready to leave the noise, fumes, and fuel stops in the dust? The future of Indian motorcycling is here, it’s electric, and it’s absolutely exhilarating. The only question left is: which Roadster X will you choose to write your electric adventure?
Remember, the road to a greener future starts with a single ride. Why not make it an electrifying one?
