Bengaluru-based Ultraviolette Automotive has launched the X-47 Venom, the first motorcycle built on its new VX100 platform. Offered at an introductory price of Rs 2.65 lakh for the first 5,000 units (regular price Rs 3 lakh), the electric crossover brings higher range, stronger performance and reduced weight compared with the earlier X-47 Crossover.
Bookings opened on 22 October 2026, with deliveries scheduled to begin in November 2026. Ultraviolette also plans a European launch across 20 countries, with a global unveiling set for 3 November at EICMA in Milan.
Here is everything you need to know about the 2026 Ultraviolette X-47 Venom, including the new platform, battery options, performance figures, safety features and pricing.
Ultraviolette X-47 Venom: What’s New?
The Venom is not a minor update. It introduces an entirely new architecture that improves energy density, reduces mass and expands the feature set.
- All-new VX100 (100 V) platform developed in-house.
- SRB11 battery pack with approximately 25% higher energy density and 15% lower weight.
- Claimed IDC range of up to 343 km (11 kWh pack).
- 40 hp and 550 Nm of torque at the rear wheel.
- 0–100 km/h in 5.9 seconds and a top speed of 155 km/h.
- Nine levels of regenerative braking with improved recovery across the full charge range.
- Pyrofuse high-voltage protection system that reacts in 2–3 milliseconds.
- Radar-based rider assistance (blind-spot, rear collision, lane-change and overtake alerts).
- Battery and motor warranty of up to eight years or 8 lakh km (subject to terms).
New VX100 Platform and Battery Technology
The X-47 Venom is the first production model on Ultraviolette’s newly developed VX100 architecture. The company claims the new battery pack offers significantly higher energy density while weighing less than the previous generation.
Two battery options are planned: approximately 7 kWh and 11 kWh. The larger SRB11 pack is quoted with a claimed IDC range of 343 km, up from 323 km on the earlier X-47 Crossover. The new thermal management system allows regenerative braking to remain active even when the battery is nearly empty or fully charged.
A lithium-ion auxiliary battery replaces the conventional lead-acid unit, reducing the risk of discharge-related failures that can leave a motorcycle inoperable.
Performance and Driving Dynamics
The Venom delivers strong real-world performance for a premium electric crossover.
| Specification | Details |
| Peak power | 40 hp (approx. 30 kW) |
| Peak torque (rear wheel) | 550 Nm |
| 0–100 km/h | 5.9 seconds (claimed) |
| Top speed | 155 km/h (claimed) |
| Claimed IDC range | Up to 343 km (11 kWh) |
| Regenerative braking | Nine levels |
| Kerb weight (approx.) | 180 kg (up to 20 kg lighter) |
The combination of lower mass and higher energy density should improve both efficiency and everyday usability compared with the previous-generation platform.
Safety, Rider Assistance and Equipment
Ultraviolette has expanded the safety and convenience package significantly.
Key safety and assistance systems
