Ola Electric has officially unveiled its first electric motorcycle, the Roadster X, marking its entry into the e-bike segment. This launch follows closely after the new-gen S1 electric scooters, solidifying Ola’s expanding EV lineup. With production already underway at the Futurefactory in Krishnagiri, Tamil Nadu, deliveries are expected to begin in mid-March 2025.

Here’s a complete breakdown of what the Ola Roadster X and X+ bring to the table.

Design

Staying true to Ola’s design philosophy, the Roadster X features a sleek, minimalist aesthetic with edgy body panels. The battery pack is smartly housed under a faux fuel tank, which also doubles as a small storage space. A rectangular LED headlamp with an integrated DRL, a flat single-piece seat, and a sturdy pillion grab rail complete its commuter-friendly look.
