Ultraviolette Shockwave 100V launch timeline and seat options

Ultraviolette has confirmed that the Shockwave electric motorcycle is headed for a Q1 2027 launch with a new 100V electrical architecture. For buyers considering a lightweight electric bike, the important update is that both single-seat and dual-seat versions are planned, while production preparations have already started.

Shockwave launch window and seat options

The Shockwave is scheduled to arrive between January and March 2027. Ultraviolette is preparing both single-seat and dual-seat configurations, giving buyers a choice depending on whether the motorcycle is intended mainly for solo riding or occasional two-up use.

The company has not yet announced the price difference between the two configurations or detailed how their equipment will differ. Those details are expected closer to the launch.

What the new 100V architecture changes

The new electrical architecture is intended to support stronger power delivery, better thermal efficiency and quicker charging. These are the expected benefits of the platform, but there are no confirmed figures yet for the production motorcycle.

For buyers, the more useful numbers are still pending. Ultraviolette has not announced the Shockwave's final battery capacity, motor output, certified range or charging time, so the 100V figure alone does not tell us how the finished bike will perform in daily use.

Shockwave production is being prepared

Ultraviolette has started setting up a dedicated production line for the Shockwave at its existing manufacturing facility. That gives the Q1 2027 timeline more substance, although the company has not specified the production start date, planned manufacturing capacity or customer delivery schedule.

The Shockwave has been developed alongside the Tesseract, which is also moving to the company's 100V architecture. The shared electrical approach does not mean the two motorcycles will have identical batteries, motors or charging hardware.

What still needs to be announced

• Final battery capacity and certified range
• Motor output and charging time
• Pricing for single-seat and dual-seat versions
• Customer delivery timeline

The key question now is whether the final price, weight, range and charging performance make the Shockwave practical for Indian buyers looking for a lightweight electric motorcycle.
