Ultraviolette X47 Base Variant Debuts in India Starting at ₹2.49 Lakh

The Ultraviolette X47, Bengaluru based EV company Ultraviolette Automotive’s top tier electric motorcycle, has just got a pretty convincing new entry level variant, now priced at an introductory Rs 2.49 lakh (ex-showroom). With this update, the overall X47 range now stretches to six variants and the bike is pushed more aggressively into the fast expanding electric two wheeler market under Rs 2.5 lakh in India.

The new base variant arrives Rs 15,000 below the previously cheapest X47 Original, making the platform considerably more accessible to a wider audience of performance-oriented urban riders.

A New Entry Point Into the X47 Lineup

Ultraviolette Automotive has quietly put the new base variant up on its official website, like, without any real formal launch event, and honestly it kinda looks like a careful, market driven pricing move. The brand wants to broaden its addressable customer audience while still holding onto the essential performance soul that the X47 platform is, you know, widely celebrated for.

The new variant is simply badged X47, without any additional suffix , clearly marking it as the base, of a more organized, six tier lineup. Buyers stepping into the Ultraviolette ecosystem via this variant can expect the same thrilling electric drive and premium tech bundle that you get across the range, with one single, deliberate exclusion.

The Only Missing Piece Hypersense Radar System

The solitary difference between the new base variant and the X47 Original is the complete absence of Ultraviolette Automotive's sophisticated Hypersense radar suite. Every other mechanical, electronic, and feature specification remains absolutely identical.

What Hypersense Radar Offers on Higher Variants

The Hypersense system is a radar-assisted advanced safety suite that provides four distinct rider assistance functions:

• Rear collision warning which continuously monitors approaching vehicles from behind and alerts the rider proactively
• Lane-change assist which detects fast-moving vehicles present in adjacent lanes during highway riding
• Overtake alerts delivers precise warnings when road conditions make overtaking unsafe
• Blind-spot detection actively monitors the motorcycle's blind zones to prevent dangerous lane changes

For riders who do not prioritise radar-based safety assistance in their daily riding conditions, the base variant represents an exceptionally strong value proposition, delivering full X47 performance at the lowest possible price of entry.

Variant-Wise Pricing Structure

Ultraviolette Automotive now offers the X47 family across six distinct trim configurations, providing a well-structured upgrade path for every type of buyer:

The lineup now presents a logical price ladder with approximately Rs 40,000–50,000 separating each step, offering buyers clear and rational upgrade milestones from the entry-level base variant all the way to the flagship X47 Desert Wing.

Complete Specifications and Feature List

Despite its accessible pricing, the base variant retains the full performance specification of the X47 platform without any mechanical compromise.

Performance and Battery Specifications

The potent 27kW electric motor delivers a claimed top speed of 145 kph, while the brisk 0–60 kph sprint of just 2.8 seconds makes the X47 one of the most performance-competitive electric motorcycles available at this price point in India. The substantial 7.1kWh battery pack backs these performance credentials with a practical 211km claimed IDC range, addressing everyday commuting as well as confident weekend touring.

Rider Assistance and Safety Features

• Dual-channel ABS  helps with precise and balanced braking, even when the road is weird or uneven.
• There’s also Dynamic Stability Control (DSC) , for extra cornering assurance so it feels more confident.
• Plus an integrated hill-hold system, it stops the rollback on inclines, so you don’t end up sliding back.
• Park assist function for convenient low-speed maneuvering

Riding Modes and Connectivity

• Glide Mode which is optimised for relaxed, efficiency-focused urban commuting
• Combat Mode for balanced performance for spirited everyday riding
• Ballistic Mode which unlocks the full performance potential of the 27kW motor
• Seamless Wi-Fi and Bluetooth connectivity for smartphone integration and over-the-air updates

Ultraviolette X47 Base Variant vs X47 Original

The comparison table decisively demonstrates that the base variant sacrifices only the Hypersense radar system in exchange for a Rs 15,000 price reduction, making it an overwhelmingly sensible choice for buyers who prioritise outright performance and range over advanced radar-based safety assistance.

What This Launch Means for the Indian EV Market

The introduction of this budget friendly variant has some real strategic weight for Ultraviolette Automotive, and for the larger Indian EV two wheeler scene too, its kind of a big deal, not just a small change or something.

• Wider price accessibility, crossing under the Rs 2.5 lakh threshold, it sort of instantly expands the pool of potential X47 buyers, like you get more people who can actually buy it.  
• There’s intense segment competition too, the base variant it directly challenges rival electric motorcycles that are picking up steam in the Rs 2–3 lakh bracket during 2026.  
• For urban commuters, the 211km IDC range and smart connectivity features together, makes a pretty solid pitch for tech friendly city riders on tighter budgets.  
• And it feels like an ecosystem entry funnel, first time Ultraviolette buyers can smoothly move up to Hypersense equipped variants as their needs evolve, which kind of locks in long term brand loyalty.

Conclusion

The Ultraviolette X47 base variant at Rs 2.49 lakh is a well-calculated move by Ultraviolette Automotive, delivering the full X47 experience, 27kW motor, 211km IDC range, dual-channel ABS, and three riding modes, at the most accessible price yet. The sole trade-off is the absence of the Hypersense radar suite, which remains non-essential for the majority of everyday riders. For buyers seeking a high-performance electric motorcycle in India under Rs 2.5 lakh, the Ultraviolette X47 base variant is simply the most complete option in its class.
