Ultraviolette Launches X-47 Crossover, The World’s First Radar-Integrated Motorcycle

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.”
