Ola Electric has just unleashed MoveOS 5, their biggest and most powerful software update to date — and it’s packed with over 50 new features. This OTA (over-the-air) update is now rolling out to all S1 scooters and Roadster X motorcycles, making the entire riding experience smarter, safer, and way more customizable.
From improved ride quality to cricket scores on your dashboard, MoveOS 5 is all about refining the ride while adding a whole lot of cool.
Top Highlights of MoveOS 5
More Power, More Range
With smarter energy management, MoveOS 5 squeezes out even more from Ola’s Gen 3 platform. Ola’s upgraded Motor Control Unit (MCU) now delivers better range, refined ride behavior, and even more efficient battery usage. Regen braking has also been enhanced, helping riders reclaim more energy on the go.
DIY Mode = Your Ride, Your Rules
Ola’s DIY Mode lets you fine-tune your ride like never before. Customize top speed, throttle response, regen levels, and power delivery — essentially build your own riding mode based on your personal preferences.
Road-Trip Mode for Group Rides
Got riding buddies? Road-Trip Mode turns your scooter or bike into a group tour companion. Plan routes, track each other in real-time on Ola Maps, and send SOS alerts if needed. It’s like having a ride coordinator and safety net all in one.
Easy Park – Forward & Reverse with Control
Parking in tight spaces is no longer a hassle. With Easy Park, twist the throttle clockwise to reverse or anticlockwise to move forward at a controlled 4 km/h. Handy for crowded spots or tricky terrain.
Safety First
- Live Location Sharing: Send real-time tracking links to selected contacts.
- SOS Alerts: Instantly notify emergency contacts with your location.
- Find My Vehicle: Make your ride flash lights and sound a chime so it’s easy to spot, even in crowded parking lots.
Smarter Notifications & Widgets
The new Notification Centre brings select app alerts — like WhatsApp — right to your screen, with controls for how much you want to see (or not see) mid-ride.
Bonus widgets:
- Live Cricket Scores (yes, really!)
- Weather + AQI updates based on your location
Why It Matters
This isn’t just a feature dump — MoveOS 5 is a serious evolution in the smart EV game. With enhanced performance, more control, and better connectivity, Ola’s turning the daily ride into a connected, dynamic, and even more fun experience.
The best part? It’s free, and it’s already rolling out to Ola S1 and Roadster X riders across the country via OTA update.
