Two electric motorcycles are available for purchase in India right now. One is built for the daily commuter. The other is built for the performance rider. Your decision comes down to what you actually ride - and how much the ₹1.6 Lakh price gap matters. 

The Two Electric Motorcycles You Can Actually Buy in India Right Now 

In June 2026, two electric motorcycles are available for purchase at Indian dealerships: the Revolt RV400, starting at ₹1,40,000* ex-showroom, and the Ultraviolette F77 Mach 2, starting at ₹2,99,000* ex-showroom. Both are in production and available. Any article comparing Tork Kratos or positioning the Ultraviolette F99 as a purchasable option is describing vehicles you cannot buy today. 

 
The Tork Kratos is discontinued and out of production as of 2026. The Ultraviolette F99 is a race-spec platform that has not commercially launched as a road-legal motorcycle available at dealerships. Its road-legal version has no confirmed on-sale date or official price on ultraviolette.com as of June 2026. 

What follows is a comparison of the two motorcycles you can actually walk into a showroom and purchase.

Who Should Buy the Revolt RV400? 

The Revolt RV400 is right for you if your daily commute is 40–60 km, your budget is under ₹1.5 Lakh, and you want a motorcycle that does not announce itself as electric. 

It rides like a 125cc petrol commuter. Single-speed, smooth throttle, manageable weight at 115 kg. The 85 kmph top speed is sufficient for city roads and state highways at normal traffic speeds. It is not built for expressways or sustained 100 kmph overtaking. 

The RV400's real differentiator is the MyRevolt subscription model - switchable artificial exhaust sounds, AI-enabled service alerts, and battery health monitoring via the app. Whether that matters to you is a personal call. What matters more is the service network. 

The service network is the most important specification not on any spec sheet. Revolt has a smaller footprint than TVS or Ather. Before you buy, verify there is a Revolt service centre in your city. This check matters more than any feature comparison. 

Who Should Buy the Ultraviolette F77 Mach 2? 

The F77 Mach 2 is for you if you have ridden motorcycles before, use highways regularly, and want performance that matches or exceeds a 300cc petrol motorcycle. 

The 38.5 kW motor delivers 95 Nm of torque instantly. The 0–60 kmph time of 2.9 seconds is what that means at every traffic light. The 307 km IDC-certified range - real-world approximately 185–230 km - makes day trips outside city limits viable. 

At 158 kg, it is heavier than the RV400. You feel that weight parking in tight spots. At speed, the mass contributes to stability. The Bosch ABS and dual-disc braking setup make it meaningfully safer at high speed than the RV400's CBS system. 

At ₹2,99,000*, the F77 Mach 2 sits in the same price bracket as a KTM 390 Duke. Buyers at this price point are making a deliberate choice to go electric - not a value-driven one. If you are choosing between a 390 Duke and an F77 Mach 2, the decision is about whether you want gear changes and petrol, or instant torque and silence. 

The Ultraviolette F99 - What to Know Before It Launches 

The F99 is Ultraviolette's race platform. It set the FMSCI-certified national quarter-mile record of 10.712 seconds at Aamby Valley Circuit in December 2024 - the fastest time ever recorded for an Indian-manufactured motorcycle, petrol or electric. 

A road-legal production version is in development. As of June 2026, no confirmed on-sale date or official ex-showroom price appears on ultraviolette.com. Third-party estimates suggest ₹7.5–₹8 Lakh ex-showroom, which would place it in the Kawasaki Ninja 400 and KTM RC 390 performance bracket.

Frequently Asked Questions 

Which is the best electric motorcycle in India in 2026? 

For daily commuting under 60 km, the Revolt RV400 is the more practical choice - lighter, more affordable, and with a real-world range of 90–115 km that comfortably covers typical city round trips. For riders who use highways regularly and want performance comparable to a 300cc petrol motorcycle, the Ultraviolette F77 Mach 2 is the stronger choice. There is no single answer - it depends on how you ride. 

Is the Revolt RV400 better than Ultraviolette F77 Mach 2 for daily commuting? 

Yes, for most city commuters. The RV400 weighs 43 kg less, costs ₹1,59,000 less ex-showroom, and its 85 kmph top speed is sufficient for city roads. The F77 Mach 2's additional range, power, and ABS are most valuable on highways - if your daily riding is confined to city streets under 80 kmph, that premium buys you capacity you will not regularly use. 

What is the real-world range of the Ultraviolette F77 Mach 2? 

The Ultraviolette F77 Mach 2 has an IDC-certified range of 307 km* as stated on ultraviolette.com (June 2026). In real-world Indian city conditions - stop-start traffic, varying speeds, rider weight, ambient temperature -you can expect approximately 185–230 km per charge, roughly 60–75% of the IDC figure. Sport mode will reduce this further; Eco mode extends it.
