Ultraviolette Automotive recently unveiled the F99 Factory Racing Platform which is touted be India's first superbike.

The superbike is now available in five cities through UV's network of Space Stations – Hyderabad, Kochi, Ahmedabad, Pune and Bengaluru with the cities of Delhi, Mumbai, Chennai, Visakhapatnam and Mangalore joining the ranks in the next month. 

The F99 will aim to claim the records for the highest speed and fastest quarter mile for an Indian motorcycle over the course of next ninety days. Innovation on the platform would facilitate breakthroughs that would translate on to the F77 platform as well.

Commenting on the occasion, Narayan Subramaniam, Chief Executive Officer, Ultraviolette Automotive said, "We believe Innovation to be a duty & a responsibility to the future of India. For long, we've looked to the East & West and used ‘Value Engineering' as a means to deflect the onus of truly making World class products in India."

He further added, "With the talent available locally and the focus on design & technology cultivated through upskilling & job creation by start ups, there is no reason India can't dream of having a world-class brand in performance motorcycling – to not dream of it, would be a disservice to our generation." 

"Disruptive technology like the F99 platform – that is among the fastest & most advanced electric bikes in the World – will help India reinforce its status as a top player in the Automotive sector. Whilst known for contract manufacturing, we believe that with the right focus & application, the time is ripe for India to take its rightful place in the pecking order of design-led, desirable auto brands in the World," said, Niraj Rajmohan, CTO, Ultraviolette Automotive.
