The EV motorcycle space in India is still a very small one. Apart from commuter-focused models, the only option for enthusiasts has been the F77, which brought modern tech and performance at a price point comparable to sub-400cc ICE motorcycles. I bought one myself, and it's a riot to ride—perfect for darting around town and enjoyable on open stretches too. But with its fully faired body and committed rider triangle, the F77 wasn't the most practical for daily street use. Ultraviolette quickly responded with the Super Street, replacing clip-ons with a flat handlebar and relaxed, naked-bike ergonomics. That single change drew a lot more buyers in. At the same time, UV has been busy developing new platforms, including an electric maxi-scooter and a trail/MX machine that will launch later this year or early 2026. Alongside them, UV has built a motorcycle aimed squarely at India's larger riding audience—meet the X-47 Crossover.
