Ultraviolette X-47 now starts at Rs 1.49 lakh with a 10.3kWh battery producing 40bhp and claims an IDC-certified range of 323km per charge.

Ultraviolette Automotive has rolled out a new Battery as a Service (BaaS) programme for the X-47 electric motorcycle, changing how riders can buy the bike. With this new ownership model, the cost of the battery is separated from the price of the motorcycle. Because of this change, the Ultraviolette X-47 now starts at Rs 1.49 lakh (ex-showroom). Buyers pay only for the motorcycle at the time of purchase and then subscribe to a battery usage plan separately. Since the battery pack forms a major part of an EV’s cost, this move significantly lowers the entry price.

The introduction of the BaaS scheme reduces the entry price of the Ultraviolette X-47 by nearly 40 per cent compared with its earlier cost. Riders now purchase the motorcycle first and then choose a battery subscription plan. This setup reduces the initial investment needed to own an electric motorcycle and brings the price closer to many middle-weight petrol motorcycles available in the market.

Under this system, owners pay a monthly battery subscription fee of Rs 2,499. This fee covers the usage of the battery pack and also provides access to Ultraviolette’s charging network. Instead of including the battery in the upfront cost, riders manage this expense through a monthly payment, making the ownership structure similar to fuel spending on a petrol motorcycle.
The motorcycle itself remains unchanged. The motorcycle uses a 10.7kWh battery paired with an electric motor that produces 40bhp and 610Nm of torque. It delivers a claimed IDC-certified range of 323km on a single charge. Ultraviolette states the X-47 accelerates from 0–60km/h in 2.7 seconds and reaches 100km/h in 8.1 seconds, while the top speed is limited to 145km/h.

By removing the battery cost from the showroom price, Ultraviolette aims to address concerns around battery replacement and depreciation. The move also comes as the Bengaluru-based manufacturer expands its retail presence across India, positioning the X-47 against middle-weight petrol motorcycles.
