The homegrown EV manufacturer is aiming to grab a bigger chunk of the Indian electric two-wheeler market and the Roadster X series is expected to play a crucial role in that strategy. Ola Electric is ambitious that the Roadster X series will boost the growth of the Indian electric two-wheeler adoption and will help the company grab a larger chunk of the market pie.

The Indian electric two-wheeler market is currently dominated by scooters, but the number of electric motorcycles is rising at a gradual pace. Several manufacturers have launched their respective products in this segment and Ola Electric has become the latest to enter this space with its Roadster X series.
