EV maker Ola Electric said it has received government certification for its Roadster X+ (9.1 kWh) electric motorcycle powered by in-house developed 4680 Bharat Cell battery pack.

The Roadster X+ has been certified under the Central Motor Vehicle Rules (CMVR), 1989 by the International Centre for Automotive Technology (iCAT), the company informed the stock exchanges.

Following this, Ola Electric will begin deliveries of Roadster X+, which it said is the first electric motorcycle in India to be certified with a fully in-house developed battery pack.

The development comes a couple of months after the Bhavish Aggarwal-led company received a certification from the Automotive Research Association of India (ARAI) for the 5.2 kWh configuration variant of its battery cell pack.

Notably, the 9.1 kWh battery pack has also received ARAI certification. The Roadster X series starts at INR 74,999 for Roadster X, INR 1,04,999 for the Roadster X+ 4.5kWh, and INR 1,54,999 for the Roadster X+ 9.1kWh that offers a range of 501 km/charge.

The latest approval will allow Ola Electric to extend the use of its 4680 Bharat Cell technology across its two-wheeler portfolio, including electric scooters and motorcycles. The same cell platform will also be used for the company’s upcoming battery energy storage system (BESS) ‘Ola Shakti’.

Recently, Ola Electric also received a sanction order from the heavy industries ministry for the release of incentives totalling INR 366.78 Cr under the production-linked incentive scheme.

This comes at a time when the EV major has been trying to douse fires on multiple fronts. High losses, declining sales and market share, and regulatory troubles kept the company under pressure for most part of 2025.

Ola Electric has sold 1.98 Lakh EVs in 2025 so far, down 51% from 4.07 Lakh units sold in 2024, as per Vahan data. Its market share has more than halved to 16.1% in 2025 from 36.7% in 2024.

On the financial front, the EV maker managed to trim its consolidated net loss by over 15% to INR 418 Cr in Q2 FY26 from INR 495 Cr in the same quarter last fiscal. However, revenue from operations also declined 43% to INR 690 Cr during the quarter under review from INR 1,214 Cr in Q2 FY25.

As a result, the company’s shares have been under pressure, declining about 58.24% year to date. The stock was trading 1.02% higher at INR 35.79 on the BSE at 12:10 IST.
