Indian EV Motorcycle Maker Ultraviolette Tries To Crack Spain and Portugal, Before the Continent

According to our friends over at The Pack, the Indian electric motorcycle brand that has been gaining seemingly unstoppable momentum, Ultraviolette, is expanding into Spain and Portugal with its highest-performance F77 Mach 2 and F77 SuperStreet models. This is just the tip of a much larger European expansion, but it brings unique challenges.

The two markets have different infrastructure, policy incentives, pricing sensitivities, and consumer expectations, and Spain and Portugal offer different possibilities and difficulties. The task of maximizing possibilities and overcoming difficulties has been given to Rhino Electric Motors, which was appointed as the exclusive importer/distributor in both markets.

The two models Ultraviolette is launching in the Iberian Peninsula share almost identical specs. Both motorcycles feature a 10.3 kWh lithium battery pack, a 30 kW (40 hp) peak power figure, and 100 Nm (73.76 lb-ft) of torque. These features get both units to 60 km/h (37 mph) in 2.8 seconds and on to a top speed of 155 km/p (96 mph). The main difference is that the Mach 2 variant offers a sportier stance, while the SuperStreet is more upright and intended to have comfier ergonomics.
