Ultraviolette unveils India’s first-ever superbike & aims to claim speed records
Industry News- Sep 20,24
Touted to be India’s first superbike, it aims to claim Indian speed records in the ensuing 90 days.
Continuing to take forward the theme of ‘Designed in India, Designed for the World’, Ultraviolette Automotive unveiled its latest offering – the F99 Factory Racing Platform – India’s first-ever superbike. Completely imagined, designed & engineered in its R&D HQ – Bengaluru, the F99 is a first for the Indian 2W industry and has a confirmed power output of more than twice that of any production motorcycle by an Indian company.
The F99 will, over the course of the next 90 days, aim to claim the records for
1. The Highest Top Speed for an Indian motorcycle
2. The Fastest Quarter mile for an Indian motorcycle
The F99 Factory Racing Platform brings to fruition, Ultraviolette’s intent to double down on using Racing to push the envelope on Technology-enabled Design. Innovation on the platform would facilitate breakthroughs that would translate on to the F77 platform as well – now available in 5 cities through UV’s network of ‘Space Stations’ – Hyderabad, Kochi, Ahmedabad, Pune & Bengaluru open now with the cities of Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, Visakhapatnam & Mangalore joining the ranks in the next month.
Narayan Subramaniam, CEO, Ultraviolette Automotive said, “We believe Innovation to be a duty & a responsibility to the future of India. For long, we’ve looked to the East & West and used ‘Value Engineering’ as a means to deflect the onus of truly making World class products in India. With the talent available locally and the focus on design & technology cultivated through upskilling & job creation by start ups, there is no reason India can’t dream of having a world-class brand in performance motorcycling – to not dream of it, would be a disservice to our generation.”
Niraj Rajmohan, CTO, Ultraviolette Automotive added, “Disruptive technology like the F99 platform – that is among the fastest & most advanced electric bikes in the World – will help India reinforce its status as a top player in the Automotive sector. Whilst known for contract manufacturing, we believe that with the right focus & application, the time is ripe for India to take its rightful place in the pecking order of design-led, desirable auto brands in the World.”
