Ultraviolette F77 is probably the only electric motorcycle in India which is tuned more towards performance. Earlier in April this year, the Bengaluru-based EV startup launched the facelifted F77 called the F77 Mach 2 at a price of Rs 2.99 lakh (ex-showroom). Six months after its launch in the home market, the new F77 Mach 2 is now headed for international markets.
Through a media release, Ultraviolette has announced that the F77 Mach 2 has earned a global certification under the ‘United Nations Economic Commission for Europe (UNECE)’ regulation. The L3e certification grants approval for road use across 40 countries worldwide, including the European Union.

The F77 MACH 2 is approved for road use for A1 and A2 licence holders across Europe and other global markets. Ultraviolette says the latest L3e certification aligns with Ultraviolette’s strategy to “Make in India for the World”. The company has already started to ship the electric sports bike to Germany and Turkey which will be followed by other markets in Europe.
Besides, the F77 Mach 2 will also be showcased at the upcoming edition of EICMA in Milan, Italy. Like its predecessor, it is broadly classified into trims– standard and Recon, the latter priced at Rs 3.99 lakh (ex-showroom). In India, it is currently available for sale in 15 cities.

Ultraviolette F77 Mach 2: Specs & features
Although the new F77 gets the same design as its predecessor, it packs a wide array of colour options to choose from the three different personas– Shadow, Airstrike and Laser. The new F77 is offered in a total of nine shades including Lighting Blue, Asteroid Grey, Turbo Red, Afterburner Yellow, Stealth Grey, Cosmic Black, Plasma Red, Supersonic Silver, and Stellar White.
That said, the updated version of the electric sports bike gets new ‘F77’ graphics on the front forks wrapped by new liveries. Besides, the charging port lid is now made of aluminium, unlike the previous plastic unit, giving the battery-powered motorcycle a more premium touch.
Powering the F77 Mach 2 is a 30kW electric motor which delivers 40.2 hp and 100 Nm of peak torque. It can accelerate 0 to 60 kmph in just 2.8 seconds while it can clock a top speed of 155 kmph, making it India’s fastest electric motorcycle. This motor draws energy from the same 10.3 kWh battery pack but peak single-charge has improved by 16 km to 323 km.
For the base variant, It takes three hours to charge the battery from 20% – 80% while the Recon version takes five hours. That said, with the boost charger, the same charge levels can be achieved in 1.5 hours and 2.5 hours, respectively.
