Ultraviolette’s new electric enduro bike, the Shockwave, has already made a strong impact in India’s growing EV two-wheeler segment. Launched in March this year, the Shockwave has received more than 7,000 bookings, signalling strong demand for performance-oriented electric motorcycles in the country. Priced at Rs. 1.75 lakh (ex-showroom), the bike is expected to begin deliveries in the first quarter of 2026.
A limited-time introductory offer helped boost early interest. The first 1,000 customers were able to book the Shockwave at a special price of Rs. 1.50 lakh (ex-showroom). Seeing the positive response, Ultraviolette extended this pricing to the next 1,000 buyers. Now that the promotional window is over, the standard Rs. 1.75 lakh price tag is in effect.
Powertrain
At the heart of the Ultraviolette Shockwave lies a 14.5bhp electric motor that delivers a massive 505Nm of peak torque. This impressive torque figure helps the bike accelerate from zero to 60kmph in just 2.9 seconds. The top speed is electronically limited to 120kmph.
The motor is powered by a 4kWh battery pack, which offers an IDC (Indian Driving Cycle) certified range of 165km on a full charge. This range is quite competitive for its segment, especially when you consider the performance and off-road credentials that the bike promises.
Design and Suspension
The Shockwave rides on a steel frame that prioritises strength and durability—essential for enduro and adventure riding. Up front, it gets telescopic forks while the rear is supported by a monoshock suspension setup. The bike rolls on wire-spoke wheels with a 21-inch front and 17-inch rear setup, wrapped in dual-purpose tyres. This combination offers good capability both on-road and off-road.
While most electric bikes have gone for alloy wheels and road-focused tyres, Ultraviolette has stuck to a more traditional adventure-bike format. The result is a rugged, go-anywhere electric bike that doesn’t compromise on agility or ground clearance.
Features
Ultraviolette has equipped the Shockwave with a comprehensive set of features aimed at both performance and safety. Here’s what you get:
- Switchable dual-channel ABS for better control on varying terrain
- Full LED lighting for improved visibility
- Four traction control modes for different road or off-road conditions
- Six levels of dynamic regenerative braking, which helps extend battery life while enhancing riding control
All these features make the Shockwave not just a commuter but a capable adventure-ready electric motorcycle.
Booking and Delivery Timeline
Given its strong response, bookings for the Shockwave continue through Ultraviolette’s official website and select dealerships in major metro cities. The company has confirmed that customer deliveries will begin in the first quarter of 2026.
With 7,000+ bookings already secured, early adopters might find themselves in a queue, depending on production capacity and distribution priorities.
Market Position
At Rs. 1.75 lakh ex-showroom, the Shockwave is priced competitively considering its performance specs, build quality, and feature list. It’s clearly targeted at riders who want a step-up from city-focused EV scooters and are looking for a more rugged, fun, and engaging electric motorcycle.
The introductory offer may have ended, but even at its full price, the Ultraviolette Shockwave offers a unique value proposition in India’s electric two-wheeler space—especially for off-road and touring enthusiasts looking to go green.
