The wait for the Ultraviolette Tesseract is almost over. Known for the brain-meltingly fast F77 motorcycle, Ultraviolette is finally bringing its tech-obsessed DNA to the scooter world. If you thought electric scooters were just about commuting and saving on fuel, the Tesseract is here to prove you wrong.
This isn’t just a scooter; it’s a rolling computer lab on two wheels. First unveiled in March 2025 at Ultraviolette’s “Fast Forward” event in Bengaluru, it has been generating massive buzz ever since. But when can you actually ride one home? Let’s break down the launch timeline, the insane specifications, and everything else you need to know about the Tesseract.
Launch Date in India: Mark Your Calendars for Mid-2026
So, here is the real talk. While we all hoped to see the Tesseract on the roads by early 2026, the company has slightly tweaked the delivery schedule. If you have already booked one or are planning to, the new delivery timeline points to the second quarter (Q2) of 2026 .
- Original Plan: Deliveries were slated for Q1 2026 (January-March).
- Updated Timeline: Deliveries will now commence between April and June 2026 .
- Variant Selection: Good news is that you will still get to choose your preferred variant (3.5kWh, 5kWh, or 6kWh) by the end of 2025, likely between October and December .
This delay seems to be a classic case of Ultraviolette wanting to get everything absolutely perfect before the scooter hits the streets, especially given the complex tech packed inside.
Price: How Much Will You Pay?
Pricing is always the big question, and Ultraviolette has kept things interesting with an introductory strategy.
- Current Starting Price: The Ultraviolette Tesseract is currently priced from ₹ 1.45 Lakh (ex-showroom) .
- The Introductory Offer: If you were among the first 10,000 brave hearts who booked early, you got it for a steal at just ₹ 1.20 Lakh (ex-showroom) .
- Higher Variants: Please note, the price mentioned above (₹1.45 Lakh) is for the base 3.5 kWh variant. The prices for the mid (5 kWh) and top-end (6 kWh) variants haven’t been revealed yet. Experts predict the top variant could hover around the ₹2 lakh mark, as it packs significantly more battery and power .
Detailed Specifications: The “Tesseract” Name Makes Sense
In science, a “tesseract” is a four-dimensional cube. For Ultraviolette, it represents packing a massive amount of technology and performance into a compact scooter. And the specs are indeed out of this world .
Performance & Battery
The Tesseract will be offered in three distinct flavors to suit different needs:
| Variant | Battery Capacity | Claimed Range (IDC) | Peak Power | Target Audience |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Tesseract 3.5 | 3.5 kWh | 162 km | 10 kW | Daily city commuters |
| Tesseract 5 | 5 kWh | 220 km | 15 kW | Weekend road-trippers |
| Tesseract 6 | 6 kWh | 261 km | 15 kW | The power users |
Performance Highlights:
- 0 to 60 km/h: Just 2.9 seconds (for the top variant). That is faster than many small cars .
- Top Speed: A claimed 125 km/h, making it highway-worthy .
- Charging: Fast charging capable. You can charge from 0 to 80% in under 1 hour using a fast charger .
Mileage and Efficiency (Range)
Let’s talk about “mileage” in EV terms—range anxiety is real, but the Tesseract tries to kill it with sheer battery size. The claimed IDC (Indian Driving Cycle) ranges are class-leading :
- 162 km on the 3.5 kWh variant.
- 220 km on the 5 kWh variant.
- 261 km on the 6 kWh variant.
In real-world conditions, you can expect slightly lower figures, but even the base model should comfortably handle a week’s worth of city commuting.
Features: It’s a Smartphone on Wheels
If you love gadgets, this is the section you will enjoy the most. The Tesseract is loaded with features you usually find on premium adventure motorcycles or even cars .
1. Radar Technology (First in Segment)
Yes, the Tesseract has radars. Similar to ADAS in cars, it offers:
- Blind Spot Detection: Gets a warning if a vehicle is in your blind spot.
- Lane Change Assist: Helps you change lanes safely.
- Front and Rear Collision Alerts: The scooter warns you if you are about to hit something or someone is about to hit you from behind.
- Haptic Feedback: The handlebars vibrate gently to alert you of dangers.
2. Dual Dashcam
Forget installing a third-party camera. The Tesseract comes with built-in front and rear cameras. It acts as a 24/7 dashcam, recording your rides for safety and those beautiful driving videos .
3. Display and Connectivity
- Screen: A large 7-inch TFT touchscreen display .
- Software: Runs on Violette AI, offering advanced ride analytics, call/SMS alerts, music control, and Google Maps navigation .
- Storage: A massive 34 liters of underseat storage—easily big enough for a full-face helmet and maybe even a laptop .
4. Hardware
- Brakes: Disc brakes on both ends with Dual-Channel ABS for safety .
- Tyres: Fat 14-inch alloy wheels with tubeless tyres (110-section front, 140-section rear) for amazing stability .
- Lights: Full LED setup with a distinctive DRL signature .

Iska range kamaal ka hai. Sabse top model mein 6 kWh ki battery hai jo 261 km chalegi . Speed topper hai 125 km/h aur 60 ki speed ye 2.9 seconds mein pakad leti hai . Lekin asli maza iske gadgets mein hai. Isme radar lage hain, matlab aapko pata chalega ki side mein gaadi hai toh blind spot khatam.

The Ultraviolette Tesseract isn’t just entering the market; it’s aiming to redefine the segment. By blending motorcycle-grade performance with scooter practicality and smartphone-level connectivity, it offers a unique proposition. While the mid-2026 launch might test your patience, the promise of 20 bhp, a 261 km range, and car-like safety features makes for a compelling package. If Ultraviolette hits its marks and prices the higher variants competitively, the Ola S1 Pro and Ather 450X have a serious rival on their hands.
