India: Ultraviolette Automotive launches its first e-2W with 100V architecture

Indian electric two-wheeler manufacturer Ultraviolette Automotive has introduced a 100-volt electrical architecture called 'VX-100'. The Bengaluru-based startup has simultaneously launched the X-47 Venom, a crossover motorcycle, as its first application.

Ultraviolette says the three key elements of its VX-100 platform are a new ‘SRB-11’ battery pack, a new ‘Light Fury’ motor, and a new motor controller, all developed in-house. The SRB-11 battery pack is the largest battery pack used in a two-wheeler in India, with an energy storage capacity of 11 kWh.

Compared to the SRB10 unit of the original X-47, SRB-11 possesses 25 per cent more energy density, cools two times faster, is 15 per cent lighter, and supports charging twice as fast. Ultraviolette claims it is the only electric two-wheeler battery pack in India to support DC charging at up to 12 kW. The Light Fury motor has an aviation-derived design and is 25 per cent lighter than the previous-generation unit and two times more power-dense. It uses soft magnetic composites, has a trapezoidal coil topology, and spins at up to 9,000 rpm.

The new motor controller features silicon carbide power transistors and weighs just 2.5 kg, which makes it 40 per cent lighter than the previous-generation unit. It also delivers three times the power density.

Ultraviolette offers the X-47 Venom in standard, plus, Recon, and Recon+ variants. 5 kWh battery pack, and the Recon and Recon+ variants share the new 11 kWh battery pack that can be charged at up to 12 kW. The former delivers a range of 227 kilometres and the latter delivers 343 kilometres, both as per IDC.
