As the Lollipop update will be available over-the-air (OTA), you will automatically get a notification on your phone about the update, however you can also manually look for the update by going to Settings > About Phone > Software update.
As per the change-logs shared by the company, the Android 5.0 update brings material design changes, improved notifications, new interruption and downtime settings, redesigned multitasking UI, changes to ambient display, updated Motorola Assist, Smart Lock, performance enhancements, and improved battery performance.
You can check out the detailed change-log for Moto G (1st Gen) here and Moto G (2nd Gen) here.
To remind you, Motorola India has already released Android 5.0 update Moto X (2nd Gen) in the country. It is now expected to roll-out Lollipop update for Moto X (1st Gen) and Moto E phones in the coming weeks.
#Lollipop is rolling out in phases to #MotoG (2nd Gen) in US & #MotoG (1st & 2nd Gen) in India. Look for the notification on your device!

Good new.. going to update my moto 2nd gen. thank you.
You can update manually, I have done manually
Any problems after the update
I am in Bengaluru and got the update 5.0.2 for my Moto G 1st Gen yesterday evening. After using it for over a day thoroughly, I found the new UI a refreshing one. It did run smoothly most of the time and I noticed a bit of a lag occasionally. I am sure you will enjoy the new flavour of Android.
Still dint get update on Moto G I Gen, tried manually but showing no updates. Any idea how to update.
How does Apple manage much more quicker and simultaneous updates which hardly any android device oem are able to match? And I am not talking about the time between aosp release and oem release for the same update, why are their roll-out “phases” so stretched out.
