Ola Electric Roadster X+
The Ola Roadster X+ is an electric motorcycle from Ola Electric, priced from Rs 1,09,999 (ex-showroom) for the 4.5 kWh base variant up to Rs 1,54,999 for the 9.1 kWh version, built for riders who want a proper mid-drive electric motorcycle rather than a scooter. Ola's own claim under the IDC test cycle tops out at 500 km, but that number is the flagship figure for the larger 9.1 kWh pack, and neither variant has an independently tested real-world range on record yet. If you commute daily and want strong off-the-line performance, from an 11 kW motor doing 0-40 km/h in 2.7 seconds, this is worth cross-shopping against Ola's own Roadster and Roadster Pro before deciding which battery size actually fits your riding.
Is the Ola Electric Roadster X+ right for you?
Best for
- Riders who want a mid-drive motorcycle feel over a typical electric scooter, with real off-the-line punch (0-40 km/h in 2.7s from the 11 kW motor)
- Buyers who can charge overnight at home on a standard 5A socket and do not need fast charging - the removable charger takes about 8 hours for a 0-80% top-up
- Someone prioritising the flagship 500 km IDC range claim on the 9.1 kWh top variant, with the understanding that it is a lab figure, not a tested one
- Buyers who value a documented battery warranty (3 years / 50,000 km) and solid basics like a front disc brake with brake-by-wire, over flashier extras
Think twice if
- Anyone who needs a genuinely tested real-world range figure before committing - EVz has no independent real-world range data for either Roadster X+ variant, so every range number quoted is Ola's own IDC claim
- Buyers on a tight budget who assume the entry 4.5 kWh variant gets close to 500 km too - that headline figure is tied to the larger 9.1 kWh pack, and a battery roughly half the size will not stretch nearly as far
- Riders who charge in a hurry or need fast-charging support - Ola quotes about 8 hours for a 0-80% charge, which suits overnight home charging far better than a quick top-up between rides
- Speed-focused buyers set on Ola's fastest bike - at a 125 km/h top speed, the Roadster X+ is positioned a notch below the Roadster Pro

Charging and living with it
Charging: 0-80% in ~8 hrs via integrated removable charger; 5A socket. Note: 500 km IDC is the top-pack headline claim. Most owners charge overnight at home; plan public or workplace charging for longer trips. The charger is described as an integrated, removable unit that plugs into any 5A household socket, so home charging does not need a dedicated wallbox - the trade-off is a roughly 8-hour wait for a 0-80% charge, which works fine overnight but is not built for quick top-ups on the road.
5-year cost of ownership
Based on 40 km/day, the Ola Electric Roadster X+ Roadster X+ 4.5 kWh costs about ₹320/month to run versus ₹2,800/month for a comparable petrol scooter, a saving of ₹30,174/year at July 2026 prices.

FAQ
What is the on-road range of the Ola Roadster X+?
Ola's claimed range under the IDC test cycle is up to 500 km, and that figure applies to the top 9.1 kWh variant (Rs 1,54,999 ex-showroom). This has not been independently tested for real-world conditions, and the smaller 4.5 kWh variant (Rs 1,09,999) will deliver meaningfully less given its smaller battery.
How long does the Ola Roadster X+ take to charge?
Both variants use an integrated, removable charger that plugs into a standard 5A home socket, taking about 8 hours to go from 0 to 80%. There is no fast-charging option quoted, so this suits overnight charging rather than quick top-ups.
Which Roadster X+ variant should I pick, the 4.5 kWh or the 9.1 kWh?
The 4.5 kWh variant at Rs 1,09,999 suits shorter daily commutes and a lower upfront cost. The 9.1 kWh variant at Rs 1,54,999 costs about Rs 45,000 more but carries roughly double the battery capacity and the 500 km IDC range claim, so it makes sense if your rides are longer or charging access is limited.
What powers the Ola Roadster X+ and how quick is it?
Both variants share an 11 kW mid-drive motor, with Ola claiming a 0-40 km/h time of 2.7 seconds and a top speed of 125 km/h. That top speed is a step below Ola's own Roadster Pro, so riders wanting outright top-end speed should look there instead.
What warranty and safety features come with the Roadster X+?
Ola backs the battery with a 3-year or 50,000 km warranty. On the safety side, the bike gets a front disc brake with brake-by-wire, which is a meaningful step up from drum-brake rivals at a similar price.
