In a first of its kind, Bengaluru-based Ola Electric has now released MoveOS 5, the most sophisticated update in operating system technology for electric two-wheelers. Offered as an over-the-air (OTA) download, the new software is expected to replace the entire package of 100+ features. It has been introduced so far with over 50 new features and enhancements that change the way people ride on Ola and the much-anticipated Roadster X motorcycles. This update demonstrates that Ola Electric is taking another significant step toward the software-defined vehicle architecture by pushing the boundaries of what EVs are capable of beyond being a clean means of transportation.

MoveOS 5 is not just a feature update; it represents a fundamental technological step change toward improved core performance benchmarks, including acceleration, battery management, range optimization, and system reliability. The engineering team at Ola leads the autonomous development of this software ecosystem. Their vision for the brand centers on an intelligent, adaptable, and user-friendly operating system designed specifically for electric two-wheelers. Ola Electric has not only made MoveOS 5 an upgrade, but it is a more intelligent way of riding into the future.

The focus of MoveOS 5 is an excellent package of customer-focused innovations that fills the gap between personalization and functionality. Features include DIY Mode, a dynamic system that enables the rider to tune the most important vehicle parameters, such as top speed, power output, throttle sensitivity, and regenerative braking levels. This essentially turns any Ola S1 or Roadster X into a device that suits the rider's needs. DIY Mode gives the user full control over the creation of their riding profile and allows pushing the created presets further to a level never seen before

Based on user notes, engineering metrics, and road statistics, MoveOS 5 also introduces new features, including a ride analytics dashboard, battery health reports, and on-screen alerts. This enables the rider to make smart decisions regarding their travel patterns and car maintenance. Putting such tools into the hands of everyday users, Ola Electric is democratizing access to advanced mobility insights, functionality that was previously reserved for large over-the-road fleets or enterprise platforms.
