Oben Rorr EVO vs Ola Roadster
Oben Rorr EVOVSOla Roadster
The scoreboard
Oben Rorr EVO
7.5/10 SEV score
Expert Verdict
The Rorr EVO is Oben Electric's new flagship and the most complete motorcycle the brand has built so far. Its new, in-house developed 9 kW motor, sharper streetfighter styling, and far longer feature list than any earlier Oben give it credible strengths. We also found its practicality to be appreciable thanks to generous storage, a long and accessible seat, and the presence of an LFP battery, which gives it good thermal safety. The only key drawback appears to be the brand’s service network that, while growing quickly, is still small when compared to its rivals.
