Ola Electric is charging ahead in the two-wheeler EV segment once again—this time with the Roadster X. The electric motorcycle has officially started reaching showrooms across India as of April 2025, and with that, test rides and deliveries are now underway. If you’re eyeing one, here’s a breakdown of the delivery timeline, variants, features, and everything else you need to know.
Deliveries
Deliveries for the Ola Roadster X are starting city by city, following a phased plan. Here’s how the rollout is expected to look:
- Bengaluru: Deliveries begin in the last week of April 2025
- Delhi, Mumbai, Pune, Chennai: Test rides start in early May, deliveries by end of May
- Other major urban centers like Ahmedabad, Indore, and Jaipur: Same timeline as above
- Tier-2 cities: Test rides from early May, deliveries by mid-June
- Pan-India: Full rollout to be completed by end of June 2025
Ola is estimating a 7 to 15-day delivery period after booking, although previous launch delays hint at the need for a bit of patience. Bookings are open online on Ola’s official website, starting at just Rs 500.
Variants
The Roadster X is offered in three variants, catering to different budgets and range preferences. Here’s a detailed comparison:
| Variant | Battery Capacity | Claimed Range | Price (ex-showroom) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Base | 2.5kWh | 140 km | Rs 74,999 |
| Mid-Spec | 3.5kWh | 196 km | Rs 84,999 |
| Top-End | 4.5kWh | 252 km | Rs 94,999 |
All variants are equipped with a 7kW motor capable of reaching a top speed of 118kmph. Acceleration from 0 to 40kmph takes just 3.1 seconds, making it a solid performer in city traffic.
Features
Beyond its performance numbers, the Roadster X also comes with practical benefits. One major highlight is Ola’s generous warranty—8 years or 80,000km on the battery, which should give buyers peace of mind about long-term ownership.
Given its affordable pricing and range spread, Ola has made the Roadster X attractive for both daily commuters and longer-range riders. While the base variant is best for city rides, the top-end variant should suit those who need more flexibility without frequent charging.
Booking
If you’re considering the Roadster X, booking is simple. Head over to Ola’s official website and pay Rs 500 to reserve your unit. Once booked, keep an eye out for test ride availability in your city. This will help you get a feel for the bike before the delivery window opens.
Although Ola Electric’s delivery track record has been a bit shaky in the past, the structured rollout this time around could be a step toward smoother execution. The combination of strong specs, three well-priced variants, and expanding dealership access gives the Roadster X a good shot at success in India’s fast-evolving EV market.
