Ultraviolette Claims Over 200km Range on their Updated F77

Bengaluru-based EV startup Ultraviolette has revealed that its much-awaited electric sportbike, the F77, is now capable of running around 200km of real-world range. This is a big jump from the initial claim of 140km from when it was unveiled in 2019, courtesy improved battery tech. If this claim is true, the F77 will boast the highest range for any electric motorcycle in India.

If you thought that was it, well think again, the bike has undergone a lot of development and offers more than it did before. The brand has confirmed they have been working on the performance consistency and maintaining the levels as the charge drops and can be expected to be better than before.

With the addition of cross members in the frame of the F77 to increase torsional stiffness, the bike has gained more weight, increasing the centre of gravity and making it top-heavy, though that only translates into it becoming more flickable. This will improve the performance and make it more agile, establishing a better connection with the rider.

With an updated battery management system, UV claims to have built multiple fail-safes to withstand errant use or even abuse of the battery and electronics, and get them back to function without much of an issue.
