Ola Roadster electric motorcycles: 126 km/h (78 mph), not 120 mph

Ola’s Roadster is rated at 126 km/h—about 78 mph—not 120 mph. Here are its battery options, 248 km IDC claim, Roadster X figures and what Indian launch prices mean for U.S. buyers.

No. The standard Ola Roadster is officially rated at 126 km/h—about 78 mph. The “over 120 mph” claim confuses kilometres per hour with miles per hour. Ola’s Indian launch prices also do not establish a U.S. delivered price below $3,000.

Is the Ola Roadster really over 120 mph?

Ola Electric lists the Roadster’s top speed as 126 km/h, or approximately 78 mph. Ola’s August 15, 2024 launch release says the motorcycle “has a top speed of 126 kmph and offers best-in-segment range of 248 kms.” That is nowhere near 120 mph (about 193 km/h).

The same unit mix-up appears to affect coverage of the Roadster X. New Atlas used “over 120 mph” in a headline, while its article text described 126 km/h for the Roadster and 124 km/h for the Roadster X. Ola’s current Roadster X information lists 118 km/h for the 2.5 kWh version and 125 km/h for X+ variants—roughly 73 and 78 mph, respectively.

If a listing is referring specifically to a Roadster Pro, its top-speed figure must be checked separately. The specifications available here do not establish a Pro top speed.

Ola Roadster specifications and launch prices

The following figures are manufacturer claims or launch prices. Prices were announced in Indian rupees and should not be read as U.S. retail prices.

Model or configuration Battery Listed top speed Certified range Peak power Launch price
Roadster 3.5, 4.5 or 6 kWh 126 km/h (about 78 mph) 248 km IDC 13 kW ₹1,04,999
Roadster X 2.5 kWh 118 km/h (about 73 mph) Not stated Not stated ₹74,999
Roadster X+ 9.1 kWh configuration 125 km/h (about 78 mph) Up to 500 km IDC Not stated Not stated
Roadster Pro Not stated Not stated Not stated Not stated ₹1,99,999

Ola’s current Roadster page lists the three standard-model battery capacities and a 248 km certified IDC range, but it does not assign a separate range figure to each battery size in the information available here. The X+ figure is an “up to” claim for the 9.1 kWh configuration, not a guaranteed distance in every riding situation.

What “less than $3,000” actually means

The under-$3,000 framing is a conversion of Indian launch prices. It does not prove that an American buyer can order and receive a Roadster for that amount.

Which battery gives the best range?

For the standard Roadster, the largest listed battery is 6 kWh, alongside 3.5 and 4.5 kWh options. Ola publishes 248 km IDC for the Roadster, but the available specification does not say which battery variant produces that number. Buyers should request the exact range certification for the chosen configuration rather than assuming every battery delivers 248 km.

IDC is a standardized Indian certification cycle. Real riding distance can be lower or higher depending on speed, rider and cargo weight, traffic, temperature, hills, tire pressure, payload, and use of lights or other electrical loads. The Roadster X+’s “up to 500 km IDC” claim should be interpreted the same way.

How the Roadster X differs from the Roadster

“Roadster” and “Roadster X” are separate series, not two names for the same motorcycle. The X starts with a 2.5 kWh version rated at 118 km/h. X+ versions are listed at 125 km/h, and the 9.1 kWh X+ configuration is advertised with up to 500 km IDC range. The standard Roadster is listed at 126 km/h, uses 3.5, 4.5, or 6 kWh batteries, and is claimed to deliver 248 km IDC.

The supplied specifications do not establish equivalent braking equipment, warranty terms, delivery dates, or service coverage for every variant. Those details should be confirmed for the exact model and market before paying a reservation or deposit.

What to verify before buying

  1. Choose the exact series and battery: confirm whether the quote is for Roadster, Roadster X, X+, or Pro and record the battery capacity.
  2. Check the current price: ask whether it is ex-showroom, a launch offer, or a current price, and request the full on-road total in local currency.
  3. Confirm market availability: verify that Ola accepts orders in your country or state and obtain a written delivery estimate.
  4. Calculate ownership costs: include shipping, import or sales taxes, registration, insurance, charging equipment, and any local fees.
  5. Get support terms in writing: confirm warranty coverage, battery warranty, parts supply, servicing locations, and the procedure for a failed or damaged battery.
  6. Validate the range claim for your configuration: ask which IDC test result applies and what charging time and charger are included.

The practical verdict

Ola’s standard Roadster is a roughly 78-mph electric motorcycle with a claimed 248 km IDC range and three listed battery capacities. It does not deliver over 120 mph. Its Indian launch price was ₹1,04,999, while the X launched at ₹74,999 and the Pro at ₹1,99,999; none of those figures is a confirmed U.S. delivered price. Treat any purchase decision as market- and variant-specific, and verify current availability directly with Ola.
