Ultraviolette's Shockwave Enduro EV: Main Features Highlighted
The electric vehicle landscape in India is about to get a fresh injection of excitement, as Ultraviolette is set to launch its debut enduro bike, the Shockwave. Deliveries for this electric dirt bike are scheduled to start in the first quarter of 2026, and bookings are already open.
Weighing in at just 120 kg, the Ultraviolette Shockwave is significantly lighter than many of its competitors, making it a nimble choice for off-road adventures. It's lighter than the Hero Splendor and much lighter than the Hero XPulse 210, offering a unique advantage for those seeking agility in their ride.
The Shockwave's battery powers a mid-mounted electric motor capable of producing 14.7 bhp and an impressive 505 Nm of peak torque at the wheel. This powerhouse setup allows the Shockwave to accelerate from 0-60 kmph in a swift 2.9 seconds, providing a thrilling ride experience.
The Shockwave is equipped with front 37 mm USD fork and rear mono-shock suspensions, offering 200 mm and 180 mm travel respectively. These suspensions, combined with the bike's rugged design, make the Shockwave ideal for good dirt riding.
The Ultraviolette Shockwave offers an IDC range of 165 km, surpassing the range of the Royal Enfield Flying Flea C6. However, the exact weight of the Shockwave's battery has not been revealed yet.
The first 1,000 customers will be able to purchase the Shockwave at an introductory price of ₹1.50 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi). After the first 1,000 units, the price will revert to ₹1.75 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi).
The Ultraviolette Shockwave has garnered an enthusiastic response for its design and affordability. With its impressive torque output, agile build, and off-road capabilities, it's easy to see why. The Shockwave rides on 19-/17-inch spoke wheels shod with on-road/off-road biased tyres, ensuring a versatile performance whether you're navigating city streets or off-road trails.
Ultraviolette, the company behind the Shockwave, also presented two new electric bicycles before this enduro bike. The company is based in India and is set to make a significant impact in the electric vehicle market with its innovative offerings.
Ultraviolette claims the Shockwave can reach a top speed of 120 mph, making it a formidable choice for those seeking speed and adventure. With deliveries set to start in 2026, the wait for the Ultraviolette Shockwave is almost over. If you're looking for an electric bike that offers power, agility, and off-road capabilities, the Shockwave might just be the perfect choice for you.
