Ultraviolette Automotive Plans 250,000-Unit Electric Two-Wheeler Factory in India

Indian electric two-wheeler startup Ultraviolette Automotive has announced plans to build a new manufacturing facility with an annual capacity of 250,000 units. The move signals a shift from its current premium-focused lineup toward higher-volume, more affordable segments.

The company, which has built its reputation on performance-oriented electric motorcycles, now aims to scale production significantly. This new plant is expected to support that expansion, though specific details on location, investment, or timeline were not disclosed in the source.

Ultraviolette’s decision reflects a broader trend among Indian EV startups to move downmarket as demand for electric two-wheelers grows. By targeting lower price points, the brand hopes to capture a larger share of the world’s largest two-wheeler market.

The planned factory would represent a major leap in capacity for the startup, which currently operates on a much smaller scale. Further announcements are anticipated as the project develops.
