This marks a significant milestone for the brand, as it pushes further into the burgeoning electric two-wheeler market. With test rides already underway and exciting introductory benefits, the Ola Roadster X is set to make a big splash.
Electrifying Performance & Versatile Battery Options
The Ola Roadster X is designed to offer a dynamic riding experience with its impressive performance figures. It comes with a choice of three battery pack options: a 2.5 kWh, a 3.5 kWh, and a 4.5 kWh, all of which promise a peak power output of around 9 bhp. For those seeking even more punch, the Ola Roadster X+ variant steps up the game with a 4.5 kWh and a massive 9.1 kWh battery pack, delivering a substantial peak power of approximately 14.75 hp.
Unmatched Range and Swift Acceleration
One of the standout features of the Ola Roadster X is its remarkable IDC (Indian Driving Cycle) range of up to 501 km on a single charge (for the top-spec X+ variant). This eliminates range anxiety for most riders, making it suitable for both daily commutes and longer journeys. Performance-wise, the Roadster X boasts a brisk acceleration, capable of sprinting from 0-40 kmph in just 2.7 seconds, and can reach a top speed of 125 km/h.
Feature-Rich for a Modern Riding Experience
Ola has packed the Roadster X with a host of modern features to enhance connectivity, convenience, and safety. Riders will appreciate the 4.3-inch TFT screen that comes with Bluetooth connectivity, offering seamless navigation and other utilities.
Beyond basic readouts, the Roadster X includes innovative functionalities like DIY mode for custom ride settings, cruise control for relaxed highway rides, and even a reverse function for easy maneuvering in tight spaces. Safety is paramount, with all Roadster variants equipped with advanced brake-by-wire technology and a Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS), providing riders with critical information and enhanced control.
Pricing and Early Bird Benefits
Ola has strategically priced the Roadster X to be competitive in the electric motorcycle segment. The Ola Roadster X starts at an attractive ₹1 lakh (ex-showroom), while the more powerful Roadster X+ begins at ₹1.30 lakh (ex-showroom).
To celebrate the launch and encourage early adoption, Ola has announced exciting benefits worth ₹10,000 for the first 5,000 customers. These benefits often include extended warranty, software upgrades, or service packages, making it an even more enticing proposition.
