Ola Roadster X+ Receives Government Certification, Deliveries To Begin Soon

Ola Electric has announced the Roadster X+ (9.1 kWh) powered by the in-house developed 4680 Bharat Cells has received the approval under the Central Motor Vehicle Rules (CMVR), 1989 by the International Centre for Automotive Technology (iCAT), Manesar. The certification allows Ola Electric to begin deliveries of the new Roadster X+ 9.1 kWh to customers, the company said.

The company further said the certification has been issued following rigorous vehicle-level safety, electrical, performance, and environmental testing, as notified by the Ministry of Road Transport and Highways (MoRTH) for certification of Battery Operated Vehicles (BoV) in the electric two-wheeler category. The electric commuter underwent multiple critical tests, including constructional and functional safety, range, gradeability, noise, electromagnetic compatibility (EMC), and braking performance. Furthermore, the 9.1 kWh battery pack has received th ARAI certification under AIS-156 Amendment 4, cleared after safety and durability tests including water immersion, thermal runaway and fire safety tests, and mechanical tests covering vibration and mechanical shock.

Speaking about the certification, an Ola Electric spokesperson said, “The government certification of the Roadster X+ is a major milestone in Ola Electric’s journey towards building end-to-end EV technology in India. With the Roadster X+ (9.1kWh), we are delivering an unmatched range along with superior performance, safety, and reliability, powered entirely by our own cell and battery technology. This is a defining step towards accelerating EV adoption in India’s motorcycle-dominated 2W market.”

The Ola Roadster X+ gets the 9.1 kWh battery pack with the brand’s indigenous 4680 Bharat Cells. The electric motorcycle promises a range of over 500 km on a single charge. Ola says long-distance riding is now possible on the electric commuter, making the model more user-friendly in Tier II and III markets for inter-city travel, while charging infrastructure remains limited. The Roadster X+ 9.1 kWh gets one of the biggest batteries on a two-wheeler in India, second to the Ultraviolette F77 Recon that gets a 10.3 kWh battery pack.

Ola Electric recently ramped up deliveries of the S1 Pro+ 5.1 kWh in Southern states. Deliveries of the new Roadster X+ should further help the electric two-wheeler maker to reclaim its market share in 2026. Both models use the new 4680 Bharat Cell technology. Notably, Ola lost nearly 50 per cent of its market share in 2025.
