Ultraviolette, a global innovator with presence across ten European nations, continues to lead in future-ready electric vehicle platforms and advanced battery technology. Through its bold spirit that defies convention, the brand consistently elevates its engineering excellence. It creates products that are not just advanced but also set new benchmarks in electric performance, keeping riders at the cutting edge of technology and performance with every ride.
In 2024, Ultraviolette captivated customers with the F77 MACH 2, which focused on safety features like Traction Control, Dynamic Stability Control (UVDSC), 10 levels of Regenerative Braking, and Hill-Hold Assist. Now, drawing insights from over 8 million km of on-road riding data, Ultraviolette introduces the next phase of evolution: the ‘GEN3 Powertrain Firmware’ and the ‘Ballistic+’ performance enhancement.
Narayan Subramaniam, CEO & Co-founder of Ultraviolette, stated,
“For decades, vehicles, gadgets, and consumer electronics have followed a familiar trajectory where they start strong, but degrade over time. While others may practice planned obsolescence, we believe in the opposite paradigm where technology evolves and gets better with time. At Ultraviolette, we envision how a machine could learn from you, evolve with you, and unlock more power the longer you own it.”
The Evolution of Performance: Introducing ‘BALLISTIC+’
‘Ballistic+’ is a high-engaging riding experience meticulously engineered to ignite adrenaline and redefine electric performance. It delivers a more exhilarating riding experience – sharper, quicker, and even more ballistic through a surge of initial power.
At the core of achieving ‘Ballistic+’ is Violette A.I.—Ultraviolette’s connected intelligence system, both on and off the F77 motorcycles. Violette A.I. actively analyzes real-world riding data collected globally, including riding patterns, throttle inputs, diverse ride scenarios, and more.
Driven by Intelligence: Violette A.I. and Gen3 Powertrain Firmware
Niraj Rajmohan, CTO & Co-founder of Ultraviolette, explained the technological leap. He said, “At the heart of every F77 is our Vehicle Control Unit, a powerful onboard intelligence system that captures over 3,000 data points in real time. These are continuously analysed by Violette A.l., which interprets, learns and evolves to optimize performance and deliver smarter, more responsive system updates.” He continued,
“Through this seamless integration of advanced hardware and intelligence, we uncovered new possibilities to extract even greater performance from the battery and drivetrain systems. Our architecture proved its capability through rigorous fine-tuning, from the VCU to the motor and motor controller, ultimately resulting in our new Gen3 Powertrain Firmware. This is a breakthrough in electric performance, based on precision engineering, and intelligent evolution.”
Free Upgrade for All F77 Owners
All existing F77 customers will benefit from their machines becoming more enhanced. This means that all F77 motorcycle owners can now avail the Gen3 Powertrain Firmware at no additional cost. ‘Ballistic+’ is backwards-compatible, ensuring every customer enjoys peak performance, regardless of when they joined the Ultraviolette ecosystem. Ultraviolette’s mission has been to relentlessly push boundaries across futuristic design, elevated performance, and advanced technologies.
