My wife has a 1st Gen MotoG bought from playstore.
It is downloading and installing 5.0.1 OTA as I type.

I've a 1st Gen. LTE, purchased from Amazon. It's still saying "up to date." I'm good with that. This phone has been working so well, I don't know as I want any updates.

That's good news! Please, report back how her phone works with 5.0.1.

I have the Moto G 2013 GPe (stock, no root, no custom ROMs) and received the 5.0.1 update via OTA yesterday. So just like the KitKat update skipped 4.4.3 and went from 4.4.2 to 4.4.4, this update also skipped 5.0. The package size was ~380 MB and it installed smoothly. Lollipop is running great so far, still exploring some of the new features. Oh, last FYI, I'm in the U.S.

I did not play much with it. In general the Moto G seemed the same as Kitkat as far as response goes, I didn't notice any huge lags. But then again I am used to Android L in my N4.
It does takes a bit to boot up the first time after the OTA is installed, so be patient for the first time.
If there is anything specific you want me to try out, let me know, I can try it in the evening. I am not allowed to install games in it
If it helps, I didn't (actually couldn't) install the 'Motorola Update Service', probably because the MotoG was from the Playstore.

I have the Moto G 2013. I just received the 4.4.4. Update. Can you tell me, what is the 5.0/L?

Why don't I have Android 5.0?

My moto G is from 2013 and colour edition and I can see everybody around me getting it and I don't. : / Do you have some explanation to give?

Phone updates are sent in waves. There's no Nexus between people you know, or people in your region, who have received the device except you. It's a slow rollout, and often times can take a month or two. I'd suggest being patient and checking for updates every couple of days.

Re: Will the Moto G get Android L?

Been using one as a backup to my Nokia 820. Excellent phone.

Has anyone heard of the Moto G from Cricket Wireless in the US getting the update?

I hear all these news that people are getting updates for 5.0 and now jumping to 5.0.1 and I still haven't seen the update. When will the updates be available for USA moto g users for the first gen. I bought my moto g from Amazon last March.
