Ultraviolette has launched the X-47 Crossover, a model it describes as the world's first radar-integrated motorcycle. This introduction is positioned as a transformative step for the company, reinforcing its mission to showcase Indian design and technological innovation on a global scale. The X-47 is presented as an evolution of Ultraviolette's lineup, incorporating what it terms an ‘aviation DNA’ to create a versatile electric motorcycle designed for a broad spectrum of riders, from daily commuters to adventure enthusiasts.

Built upon Ultraviolette’s proprietary electric powertrain architecture, the X-47 is powered by a 10.3 kWh battery pack that produces a peak output of 40.2 horsepower and 100 Nm of torque. This performance enables acceleration from zero to sixty kilometres per hour in 2.7 seconds, with a top speed of 145 kmph. The motorcycle offers an IDC range of up to 323 kilometres, which the company states sets a new benchmark for electric motorcycle endurance. Its upright riding posture and rider-focused ergonomics are designed to provide comfort and control across diverse environments, from city streets to long-distance journeys.

A key innovation on the X-47 is its UV Radar Intelligence system, which utilises a 77 GHz rear radar capable of monitoring objects up to 200 metres away. This system is engineered to function even when the motorcycle is leaning at angles up to 20 degrees. It forms the basis of an Advanced Rider Assistance System, providing functions such as blind-spot monitoring, lane change assist, overtake alerts and rear collision warnings. These alerts are communicated to the rider through the motorcycle's display and mirrors, aiming to significantly enhance situational awareness and safety.

The motorcycle's chassis features 41 mm inverted front forks and a mono-shock rear suspension, both adjustable for preload, to allow a customisable ride. Braking is handled by a Brembo system with a 320 mm front disc, supported by a 10th generation Bosch dual-channel ABS and three-level traction control. The X-47 also introduces industry-first radial all-terrain tyres for improved grip. Riders can select from three riding modes – Glide, Combat, and Ballistic – to tailor the motorcycle’s performance characteristics to different conditions.

Charging solutions for the X-47 include a standard onboard charger, notable for its ability to maintain full power output in high ambient temperatures. Ultraviolette also introduces an optional Parallel Boost Charging feature, which works with the onboard charger to double the charging power and halve the charging time when using a standard 16A AC outlet.

The X-47 can be equipped with an integrated dual-camera dashcam system for recording journeys, and a connectivity suite named VIOLETTE A.I. This system provides features such as movement, fall and towing alerts, remote lockdown and an anti-collision warning system. The motorcycle also offers configurable storage options with hard or soft panniers.

The Ultraviolette X-47 is available for sale across India at an introductory price starting at INR 243,000 and is applicable to the first 1000 customers. Deliveries of the X-47 Crossover will commence in October 2025.

Narayan Subramaniam, CEO and Co-founder, Ultraviolette, said, “At Ultraviolette, innovation defines everything we do, and with the X-47 Crossover we have built a motorcycle from the ground up to transform the entire riding experience. With that vision, we have introduced the World’s first radar and camera integrated motorcycle. The fighter jet inspired X-47 represents a fusion of cutting-edge technology, advanced safety systems and precision engineering that redefines what riders can expect from electric mobility. It has been designed to deliver unmatched versatility, from urban rides to varied riding scenarios while staying true to Ultraviolette’s vision of building world-class EVs that showcase Indian design, innovation and engineering leadership on the global stage.”

Niraj Rajmohan, CTO and Co-founder, Ultraviolette, said, “At Ultraviolette, technology drives our vision, shapes our identity and powers everything we create, it defines who we are. With the X-47, we have reimagined what an electric motorcycle can deliver by introducing industry-first innovations like radar-powered rider assistance systems, an advanced dual-camera dashcam suite and our in-house developed onboard charger with an industry-first innovation of parallel boost charging. Our vertically integrated approach allows us to engineer for real-world resilience, from thermal stability in extreme conditions to robust future-ready safety systems. The X-47 stands as our boldest declaration yet, a testament to the belief that the future of mobility will be shaped by disruptive ideas conceived and crafted right here in India.”

Euler Motors has introduced the Euler Turbo EV 1000, a new one-tonne, four-wheel electric commercial vehicle positioned as a high-performance and affordable solution for businesses. Priced from an ex-showroom starting point of INR 599,000, the model is presented as a direct and cost-effective alternative to traditional diesel vehicles, with the company claiming it can provide annual savings of approximately INR 115,000 for operators.

The Turbo EV 1000 is engineered to address key concerns in the commercial vehicle segment. It claims a real-world range of 140 to 170 kilometres, which it combines with a segment-leading torque of 140 NM for navigating demanding urban routes. Safety and performance features include large 230 mm disc brakes on an R13 wheel platform. A significant innovation is its CCS2 fast-charging capability, which Euler states can deliver 50 kilometres of range in just 15 minutes at public charging stations, a first for the industry.

This vehicle specifically targets small fleet owners and driver-entrepreneurs for whom upfront cost and operational efficiency are critical. By offering a competitive purchase price alongside low running costs, the Turbo EV 1000 aims to break down adoption barriers and provide a lower total cost of ownership, thereby improving profitability for businesses operating on thin margins. The vehicle incorporates nine segment-first innovations and marks the company's third product launch and its second in the four-wheel commercial vehicle category.

To cater to diverse needs and budgets, the Euler Turbo EV 1000 is available in three distinct variants: the CITY at INR 599,999, the FAST CHARGE at INR 819,999 and the MAXX at INR 719,999. The company is also facilitating accessibility through financing options, with easy EMI plans starting from INR 10,000 per month after a down payment of INR 49,999.

Saurav Kumar, Founder and CEO, Euler Motors, said, “We are proud to be launching Euler Turbo EV 1000 today, as we believe it marks the meeting of deep engineering innovation with real world practical needs of India’s logistics industry – to deliver a segment-first combination of performance AND affordability. As India’s state and national transport policies, GST reforms and other developments reshape fleet economics in Indian cities, Euler Turbo EV 1000 arrives at a pivotal time to drive the transition to sustainable mobility in India. It is poised to be the inflexion point for EV penetration growth in the 4W CV segment overall, currently estimated at around two percent.

“There is an urgent need for action towards sustainability, or else we will risk questioning by future generations. However, it is not possible to expect scale adoption without responding to practical everyday challenges. Euler Turbo EV 1000 responds to this dual need of a long-term vision while keeping short term needs in mind. It is a global best in class across multiple parameters in the 1-tonne segment, which just happens to be an EV. Our aspiration was to build a vehicle that fundamentally changes how people think about commercial vehicles in this segment. With this, Euler Motors has firmly placed India on the global EV manufacturing map.”

Bengaluru-based electric vehicle maker Ather Energy has reached a significant milestone by opening over 500 Experience Centres (EC) across the country. In just the last three months, the company added 101 new centres, with a strong focus on expanding its presence in central and northern India.

The company's rapid expansion is largely driven by the growing demand for its electric scooters, particularly the new Rizta, Ather's first family-oriented scooter. While southern India remains Ather’s strongest market, the success of the Rizta has accelerated its growth in new regions.

Ravneet Singh Phokela, Chief Business Officer, Ather Energy, said, “Crossing 500 Experience Centres marks an important step in our growth journey, as we continue to expand our presence in line with rising demand across markets. While South India continues to be our strongest base, where we are steadily growing, the success of Rizta has also helped us fast-track expansion in Middle and North India. This growth is not confined to metros alone. We are also building deeper into tier 2 and 3 cities, where consumer response has been equally encouraging. As we continue to scale, our focus remains on making Ather accessible to more customers across India, with the aim of crossing 700 Experience Centres by the end of FY26.”

Going forward, Ather aims to have over 700 Experience centres by the end of fiscal year 2026 to make its vehicles more accessible to a wider audience. The company is not only expanding its retail footprint but also its service network, including dedicated Ather Gold service centres.

The EV maker’s market share has grown from 7.6 percent in Q1 FY2025, to 14.3 percent in Q1 FY2026.

To support its ambitious growth, Ather operates two manufacturing plants in Hosur, Tamil Nadu, and is building a third facility in Maharashtra that will increase its total annual production capacity to 1.42 million electric two-wheelers.
