Ultraviolette launches X-47 Venom electric bike at ₹2.65 lakh introductory price
The Story in Brief
Ultraviolette launched the X-47 Venom electric motorcycle in India on Thursday (22 October 2026) at an introductory price of ₹2.65 lakh for the first 5,000 vehicles, against a stated price of ₹3 lakh. Bookings are open, with deliveries beginning in November 2026.
The bike is the first model on the company's new VX-100 100V architecture. It gets an 11 kWh battery pack with an IDC-claimed range of 343 km, a 30 kW motor producing 550 Nm torque at the wheel, a top speed of 155 km/h and 0 to 100 km/h acceleration in 5.9 seconds. The motorcycle weighs 180 kg, up to 20 kg lighter than the previous generation.
Ultraviolette says the VX-100 platform supports 12 kW DC fast charging, a claimed first in the electric two-wheeler industry. The X-47 Venom will also launch in 20 countries across Europe.
Indian Opinion Analysis
The ₹2.65 lakh introductory price for the first 5,000 units undercuts the stated ₹3 lakh, a move to build early volume in a segment still struggling for consumer adoption. A 343 km IDC range and 12 kW fast charging address two of the biggest barriers to EV bike sales: range anxiety and charge time. The simultaneous launch in 20 European markets signals that the VX-100 platform was designed from the start for global compliance, not just Indian conditions. Deliveries starting November 2026 will test whether the company can meet production timelines.
