The Ola Roadster X is an electric motorcycle designed for urban commuting, with multiple battery options to suit different usage needs. It is available with 2.5 kWh, 3.5 kWh, and 4.5 kWh battery packs, all using lithium-ion chemistry. These variants offer different levels of range and performance, with the claimed range going from around 140 km to over 250 km depending on the battery size. The bike uses a mid-drive electric motor that produces around 7 kW of peak power in standard versions, which allows for smooth and quick acceleration in city riding conditions. The top speed varies across variants, reaching up to around 118 km/h in higher versions, while lower variants are slightly slower.
The battery is fixed and cannot be removed, so charging is done using a home charger or compatible charging network. Charging time varies depending on the battery size, with 0–80% taking roughly 4.5 to 6 hours. Fast charging support is available, although the speed and access depend on infrastructure in the user’s area. The real-world range is usually lower than claimed figures and depends on factors like riding mode, speed, traffic, and road conditions.
In terms of design, the Ola Roadster X follows a minimalist street motorcycle layout with a slim body, exposed frame elements, and a single-piece seat. The riding posture is upright, which makes it easier to handle in daily traffic compared to more aggressive motorcycles. The suspension setup includes telescopic front forks and dual rear shock absorbers, which are tuned for regular road use. This setup helps maintain stability, although bumps and uneven surfaces can still be noticeable on rough roads.
The braking system includes a front disc and rear drum setup, supported by a combined braking system for better control. The bike runs on alloy wheels and is built to handle typical urban riding conditions. The overall weight and size are designed to keep it manageable for everyday use, especially in stop-and-go traffic.
The Ola Roadster X comes with a basic but functional feature set. It includes a digital display that shows information like speed, battery level, and riding data. It also offers ride modes such as Eco, Normal, and Sport, which adjust power delivery based on riding needs. Additional features include LED lighting, smartphone connectivity functions, and over-the-air updates for software improvements.
