Ultraviolette has expanded the X-47 electric motorcycle lineup in India with the launch of a new base variant. The motorcycle has been introduced at an ex-showroom price of Rs 2.49 lakh, making it Rs 15,000 less expensive than the X-47 Original variant priced at Rs 2.64 lakh. The new variant was added to offer a lower entry point in the X-47 range while retaining the same mechanical setup and core features.

Hypersense Radar System Removed

The primary difference between the new base variant and the higher versions of the X-47 is the removal of the Hypersense radar-based rider assistance system. The Hypersense package available on higher trims includes features such as blind-spot detection, lane change assist, overtake alerts and rear collision warnings.
