Ola Roadster: Ola Electric’s Roadster lineup stormed India in late 2025, bringing naked streetfighter vibes with jaw-dropping ranges and prices starting under ₹1.05 lakh—making high-performance EVs accessible for urban riders and highway hoppers alike.
Positioned between the entry Roadster X and beastly Pro, the core Roadster (and X sibling) packs 11kW punch, up to 248km claimed range, and features that smoke most petrol commuters without the fuel burn.
In January 2026, with deliveries ramping and real-road tests pouring in, it’s Ola’s bid to grab the mass electric bike market from Revolt and Tork, especially in two-wheeler mad states like Haryana.
Aggressive Naked Styling That Stands Out
Straddle the Roadster’s slim 780mm seat, and its muscular tank-like panels housing the battery-motor combo scream purposeful aggression—LED projector headlamp slashes darkness, sculpted fuel-tank mimics ICE classics with a futuristic twist.
At ~110kg kerb, it flicks through traffic lighter than most 150cc bikes, 17-inch alloys (tubeless tires) wrapped in sporty rubber for grip. Single-piece seat with grab rail keeps pillion comfy for quick doubles.
Matte/glossy finishes in ten colors—neon greens, stealth blacks, fiery oranges—turn heads without bling overload. Minimalist tail with slim LED taillight and compact swingarm keeps weight low.
It’s no cruiser slouch; the forward-set bars and rearsets nail that street naked stance, perfect for posing at chai stalls or carving Narnaund corners. Build feels solid post-user spins, shrugging vibes better than early Ola scooters.
Surge Power and Range Crushing Commutes
11kW mid-drive motor (13kW peak on top trim) blasts 0-40kmph in 2.4-2.7s, topping 116-126kmph—Hyper/Sport/Normal/Eco modes let you dial fun or frugality.
Torque floods instantly for wheelie teases or overtakes, no gear hunting like petrol thumpers. Real-world? Users clock 120-200km per charge laden, depending on throttle hand.
Battery choices rule: 3.5kWh (151km IDC, ₹1.05L), 4.5kWh (190km, ₹1.20L), 6kWh (248km, ₹1.40L ex-showroom).
Non-removable packs prioritize pack density, regen braking claws back 10-15% in city slogs. Roadster X mirrors this at lower ₹74k-1L entry, ideal first EV dip.
No rattles in tests; cooling keeps it chill during spirited pulls. It’s not Pro’s 52kW monster (579km!), but smokes 125cc petrolers on twisties without sweat.
Loaded Tech Dash with MoveOS Magic
7-inch color TFT touchscreen dominates the bars—crisp Ola Maps navigation, rider stats, proximity unlock, TPMS alerts, tamper alarms all tap-responsive even gloved.
MoveOS5 brings OTA tweaks, vacation mode preserves charge idle, app mirrors calls/music/OTA. Hill-hold nails stop-start slopes hands-free.
USB port juices phones, full-color dash themes personalize, four modes tweak regen/throttle maps. No cluster overload; essentials glow bright for night rides.
Connectivity shines—service booking, stats tracking via app, future AI chip nods (Q1 2026). For tech-savvy creators logging rides or specs, it’s a data goldmine without fuss.
Safety layers: single-channel ABS (discs front/rear), crash alerts, geo-fencing. Telescopic forks/monoshock balance plush and planted—pillion pegs fold away for solo stunts.
Fast Charging Backbone for Non-Stop Action
Standard charger sips 0-80% in 4.6hrs (3.5kWh), 5.9hrs (4.5), 7.9hrs (6kWh)—full overnight easy. Ola Hyperchargers promise quicker communal top-ups, network exploding nationwide.
Running costs? ₹0.23/km nukes petrol’s ₹2-3/km, saving ₹20k+ yearly on 5k km.
BaaS-like subscriptions eyed soon, easing upfront hits. No range anxiety for 100km days; regen shines in traffic.

Value Assault on Petrol and EV Rivals
Ex-showroom Delhi: Roadster 3.5kWh ₹1.05L, up to ₹1.40L top; Roadster X from ₹75k (2.5kWh). Haryana on-road ~₹1.15L base, EMIs ₹2k/month.
Stack vs rivals: Revolt RV400 ₹1.4L (150km), Tork Kratos ₹1.7L (180km)—Roadster laps on range/price/features. Pro at ₹2-2.5L tempts hotshots.
Ola’s 4k+ stores/service net crushes newbies. Early reviews praise zip/reliability, minor niggles like app glitches patching OTA.
Ola Roadster isn’t just a bike; it’s EV freedom—thrilling, cheap-to-run, future-proof for India’s charging boom. Ditch pumps, embrace torque.
