Ultraviolette has unveiled a major upgrade to its flagship electric motorcycle, the F77, with the rollout of its new GEN3 Powertrain Firmware and the introduction of the high-performance ‘Ballistic+’ mode. Known for pushing boundaries in electric mobility and battery innovation, the brand now operates across ten European countries and continues to redefine performance benchmarks in the EV space.
Building on the momentum of the F77 MACH 2 launched in 2024—which introduced advanced safety and riding technologies like Traction Control, UV Dynamic Stability Control (UVDSC), 10-level Regenerative Braking, Hill-Hold Assist, and the AI-based Violette—the latest upgrade represents the next step in the bike’s evolutionary journey.
Backed by over 8 million km of real-world riding data, Ultraviolette’s GEN3 firmware enhances both intelligence and performance. The newly added ‘Ballistic+’ mode unleashes more power, elevating the riding experience to new heights.
Commenting on the update, Ultraviolette CEO and Co-founder Narayan Subramaniam said, “Most vehicles and electronics tend to deteriorate with time. At Ultraviolette, we’ve embraced a different philosophy—where our machines grow smarter, faster, and more capable the longer you own them. We’re building EVs that learn, evolve, and unlock greater performance with time.”
Ballistic+ is a high-engaging riding experience meticulously engineered to ignite adrenaline and redefine electric performance. At the core of achieving Ballistic+ is Violette A.I.- Ultraviolette’s connected intelligence system both on and off the F77 motorcycles. Violette A.I. is not just a passive riding system but also actively analyses real-world riding data collected across the world including riding patterns, throttle inputs, diverse ride scenarios and more.
“At the heart of every F77 is our Vehicle Control Unit, a powerful onboard intelligence system that captures over 3,000 data points in real time. These are continuously analysed by Violette A.I., which interprets, learns and evolves to optimize performance and deliver smarter, more responsive system updates. Through this seamless integration of advanced hardware and intelligence, we uncovered new possibilities to extract even greater performance from the battery and drivetrain systems. Our architecture proved its capability through rigorous fine-tuning, from the VCU to the motor and motor controller, ultimately resulting in our new Gen3 Powertrain Firmware. This is a breakthrough in electric performance, based on precision engineering, and intelligent evolution”, said Niraj Rajmohan, CTO & Co-founder of Ultraviolette.
All existing F77 customers will benefit from their machines becoming more enhanced. This entails that all F77 motorcycle owners can now avail the Gen3 Powertrain Firmware at no additional cost. Ballistic+ is backwards-compatible and ensures every customer enjoys peak performance, regardless of when they joined the Ultraviolette ecosystem. Ultraviolette’s mission has been to relentlessly push boundaries across futuristic design, elevated performance, and advanced technologies.
