One name stands out when we think of superior and superfast electric motorcycles: Ultraviolette! The brand has already made waves with the F77 Mach 2 and the recently launched F77 Super Street. However, offering just two versions of the same motorcycle isn’t enough to cater to a wide range of riders.
After years of anticipation, Ultraviolette is gearing up to announce an exciting new lineup. According to available renders, we can expect a maxi-scooter, cruiser, adventure motorcycle, and possibly the F99 supersport electric motorcycle.
Electric Adventure Motorcycle
Creating an electric adventure motorcycle is an engineering challenge, and it remains to be seen how Ultraviolette will tackle it. Range anxiety in remote areas—especially in the Himalayas—is a significant concern for electric vehicles. Additionally, EVs tend to be heavier, which could pose difficulties in off-road terrain.
However, on the bright side, electric motors' instant torque delivery can be a considerable advantage when navigating rough and steep trails. This could be a game-changer if Ultraviolette manages to strike the right balance between weight, power, and battery efficiency.
The Ultraviolette Cruiser
An electric cruiser for long highway journeys? Who wouldn’t want that? Imagine riding for hours with zero vibrations, no engine noise, just the smooth melody of Ultraviolette’s electric motor.
Cruisers are typically heavy, which could work in favor of Ultraviolette. Suppose they capitalise on this and offer a high-capacity battery capable of a 500 km+ range, comfortable seats and luggage-friendly design. In that case, they might redefine long-distance touring on electric motorcycles.
The Maxi-Scooter
The maxi-scooter segment is growing, as seen with Hero’s recent launch of the Xoom series to rival Yamaha’s Aerox. There is a market for these premium scooters; having more options is always good.
If Ultraviolette can introduce an electric maxi-scooter at a competitive price, it could become their best-selling two-wheeler in terms of sales. However, comparisons with Ather are inevitable when they enter the scooter market. It will be interesting to see how Ultraviolette differentiates itself from the competition.
The F99
Who hasn’t dreamed of riding a motorcycle capable of 250 kmph? We expect the F99 to be Ultraviolette’s most expensive offering, built for speed enthusiasts and track riders.
Some may doubt the idea of track days on an EV, but let’s be honest—it’s bound to happen. The F99 seems well-equipped to compete head-to-head with bikes like the KTM RC 390 and Aprilia RS 457. If Ultraviolette gets this right, it could change the perception of electric motorcycles in the performance segment.
Conclusion
While these motorcycles are expected to be announced soon, we might not see production-ready versions until 2026 or 2027. At this point, all we can do is speculate on the launch timeline, but one thing is sure—these motorcycles are coming.
With this upcoming lineup, Ultraviolette is set to make a bold statement in the electric two-wheeler industry. The future looks exciting, and we can’t wait to see what’s in store!
