Ola Roadster X Electric Motorcycle Buyers To Get Rs. 10,000 Benefits As 'Early Bird' Offer
Ola Electric has announced an attractive benefits package worth ₹10,000 for early adopters of its newly launched Roadster X electric motorcycle. This limited-time offer, part of the company's "Ride the Future" campaign, is exclusively available to the first 5,000 customers who purchase the electric two-wheeler, which began deliveries in late May 2025 after several delays.
Premium Benefits to Kickstart the Journey
The ₹10,000 benefits package includes three major components designed to enhance the ownership experience. First, customers will receive a free extended warranty for the battery pack, addressing one of the most common concerns potential electric vehicle buyers have about long-term reliability. Second, buyers will get free access to MoveOS+, the premium version of Ola's operating system that powers the motorcycle's digital features. Finally, the package includes a complimentary 'Essential Care' service.
The 'Essential Care' service is particularly noteworthy as it involves an 18-point inspection covering vital components to ensure optimal safety and performance. This comprehensive check examines critical areas such as brakes, tyres, axle, and other important mechanical parts. Ola Electric emphasises that this service will be performed by certified professionals using genuine parts, giving buyers additional peace of mind.
The Roadster X: Features and Variants
Ola's Roadster X represents the company's first foray into the electric motorcycle segment, following its successful line of electric scooters. The motorcycle features a minimalist design with modern touches, including a rectangular wraparound LED headlamp and a digital instrument console.
Every variant of the Roadster X comes equipped with a 4.3-inch LCD instrument display that offers Bluetooth connectivity, turn-by-turn navigation, reverse mode, and cruise control. The motorcycle also features advanced safety technologies such as brake-by-wire technology and a tyre pressure monitoring system across all variants.
The Roadster X is available in three main battery configurations to suit different needs and budgets. The 2.5 kWh variant, priced at ₹99,999, offers a range of 140 kilometres and a top speed of 105 kmph. The mid-tier 3.5 kWh variant costs ₹1,09,999 and extends the range to 196 kilometres with a top speed of 118 kmph. The premium 4.5 kWh variant, priced at ₹1,24,999, pushes the range further to 252 kilometres while maintaining the 118 kmph top speed.
For those seeking even more range and performance, Ola also offers the Roadster X+ with either a 4.5 kWh battery pack (₹1,29,999) or a massive 9.1 kWh battery (₹1,99,999) that delivers an impressive 501 kilometres of range on a single charge.
Delayed Launch, Strong Entry
The journey to market for the Roadster X hasn't been entirely smooth. Originally scheduled for delivery in March, the launch was postponed multiple times, with deliveries finally commencing in late May 2025. Industry insiders suggest that homologation issues with Indian authorities contributed to these delays.
Despite these challenges, Ola Electric has managed to create significant buzz around its entry into the motorcycle segment. The benefits package appears to be part of a strategic push to accelerate initial sales and build momentum for the new product line.
Market Implications
With this move, Ola Electric is directly challenging established players in the electric motorcycle space, including Revolt with its RV400 and Oben with the Rorr. The competitive pricing, coupled with the introductory benefits, positions the Roadster X as an attractive option for urban commuters looking to transition to electric mobility.
As electric vehicle adoption continues to grow in the two-wheeler segment, offerings like the Roadster X with its combination of modern features, decent range, and now additional benefits may help accelerate the shift away from conventional internal combustion engine motorcycles.
For prospective buyers considering the switch to electric, the limited-time offer provides additional incentive to be among the early adopters. However, with the benefits restricted to just the first 5,000 customers, interested riders might need to act quickly to secure the ₹10,000 advantage.
