It’s a bird…it’s a plane…it’s the Ultraviolette F77 Mach 2! Launched yesterday at an introductory price of Rs 2.99 lakh (ex-showroom Bengaluru) for the standard variant and Rs 3.99 lakh for the Recon variant, limited to 1,000 customers, the F77 Mach 2 has been internally updated with an improved range, increased top speed, and a variety of colour options.

Getting straight to the heart of the matter, the electric motorcycle can now sprint up to a top speed of 155 km/h around 15 km/h more than the first-gen. Similarly, the range has been extended up to 211 km for the standard variant and 323 km for the more premium Recon variant.

Other notable updates include a revised braking system with optimized ABS, three levels of traction control (rain, city, and track), and a remarkable 10 levels of regen on the Recon variant. The F77 Mach 2 is now equipped with features like hill-hold assist, optional TPMS, "find my F77" feature, onboard navigation, an alert system, and more.

Moreover, it now offers a plethora of optional additions like Violette AI, charge limit, park assist, find my F77, deep sleep/vacation mode, geofencing/delta watch, lockdown, crash alerts, daily ride analytics, and more, in addition to the existing features such as three riding modes - Glide, Combat, and Ballistic.

Design-wise, things remain similar, with the Mach 2 now available in a total of nine colour options. The F77 Mach 2 retains features like upside-down forks, a rear monoshock unit, and 17-inch alloy wheels with 110-section front and 150-section rear tyres. The weight remains unchanged, with the standard variant weighing in at 197 kg while the Recon tips the scale at 207 kg.

Last year, we had the opportunity to take the Ultraviolette F77 Mach 1 for an extended spin around the town. Head on here to read our thoughts.
