Ultraviolette opens first showroom in Bengaluru
Ultraviolette Automotive has opened its first experience centre in Bengaluru. Spread over 10,000square feet, the showroom houses display vehicles and official accessories as well as a lounge and flight simulator.
The showroom is known as the ‘Ultraviolette Hangar’ and also serves as an R&D facility for the EV startup. Ultraviolette claims it will expand to 15 more locations.
The company has begun deliveries of the F77 limited edition e-bike. Only 77 units of this limited edition model were built at a cost price of ₹5.5 lakh — all of which are sold out.
The F77 line-up currently consists of two variants — Original (₹3.8 lakh) and Recon (₹4.55 lakh) — and bookings are open for both. Official accessories for the F77 range include a set of accessory panniers, tank grips, more aggressive rearsets, lever guard and an ‘aerodisc’ (an aerodynamic cover over the rear wheel).
