Energy Efficiency in the Ultraviolette Superstreet

December 17, 2025

What if your next bike wasn’t just about looking cool or reaching 0 to 60 fast, but also about how intelligently it uses energy?

That’s where the Ultraviolette Superstreet F77 steps in. It’s not trying to be just another electric bike. It’s trying to reset what performance and efficiency actually mean for Indian riders today.

In this article, we’re not throwing complicated engineering words or textbook definitions at you. We’re just talking like real riders, real men, who love speed but hate wastage. So let’s decode why the Superstreet is the most energy-efficient electric bike you’ll want in your garage,and how that impacts your wallet, your lifestyle, and the way you move.

Why energy efficiency actually matters, and not just for “eco-friendly” guys

Let’s be clear. Efficiency isn’t about being “eco-friendly” for the sake of social media points. It’s about not wasting power, not spending unnecessarily, and getting the most out of your machine.

Think of it like this:

You don’t leave your AC running when you step out, right?
You don’t buy the phone with the worst battery life.
You don’t wear a heavy leather jacket in Chennai’s heat.

So why would you ride a bike that gulps energy for no reason?

The Superstreet F77 is built on that exact thought. It’s made for Indian riders who love thrills but also like saving energy, saving money, and saving time.

The Ultraviolette mindset: Performance with purpose

Here’s the thing. Ultraviolette didn’t start as a regular EV company. It’s built by riders who are also engineers. They understand how India rides, sometimes aggressively, sometimes casually, always with jugaad in mind.

So they built the Superstreet F77 to be brutally efficient in both city traffic and highway freedom. Let’s break that down.

The battery: More brains than bulk

This isn’t some boxy battery slapped under the seat. The F77 comes in two variants, Superstreet and Recon, and both are powered by SRB7 and SRB10 battery systems, respectively.

SRB7 (7.1 kWh)
SRB10 (10.3 kWh)

Now, what matters here is not just the capacity but how the energy is managed. The F77’s battery pack comes with a 5-level protection system. That means it’s designed to handle India’s heat, potholes, rain, traffic, and all the madness of daily riding without overheating, over-draining, or losing life.

And because the whole system is wrapped in an aluminium IP67-rated enclosure, it’s fully sealed, fully protected, and built for years of action.

Real-world range: Not brochure fluff

Let’s get to what you really care about.

Recon (SRB10) offers:

323 km IDC range
266 km in Glide mode
209 km in Combat mode
186 km in Ballistic mode

Superstreet (SRB7) offers:

211 km IDC range
183 km in Glide mode
144 km in Combat mode
128 km in Ballistic mode

In simple words, even if you’re pushing it hard, you’re still getting over 120 km on a full charge. And in real city riding, you’re looking at 200+ km without charging anxiety.

Regenerative Braking: The bike charges itself while you ride

This is honestly the most underrated feature in Indian riding conditions.

We brake a lot in India, at traffic signals, cows, autos swerving randomly, or just your friend shouting “Bhai, chai break!”

The F77 turns this into a good thing.
You get 3 levels of dynamic regenerative braking

And if you’re the nerdy kind, you can even unlock 10 levels of regen to fine-tune exactly how much power gets fed back into the battery

It’s like getting a bonus range just for doing what you already do, slowing down.

This system alone helps you extend your battery life and save charging time, especially if you ride a lot in stop-and-go traffic.

Ride modes = Range control in your hand

The F77 comes with three ride modes:

Glide—the smoothest, most efficient
Combat—perfect balance between power and range
Ballistic—pure thrill, uses more energy but is worth every second

Here’s the smart part: you can switch modes on the go.

So if you’re just cruising around town or stuck in traffic, go Glide. Need to overtake or feel the thrill? Tap into Ballistic. But you’re always in control of how much energy you want to use.

This is personalised efficiency at its best.

Smart Charging: Less plug time, more play time

Energy efficiency isn’t just about how you use energy; it’s also about how fast you can refill it.

Let’s talk charging:

Charger Type	20%-80% Charge Time	Range Added per Hour
Standard Charger	3 hrs (Superstreet), 5 hrs (Recon)	35 km/hr approx
Boost Charger	1.5 hrs (Superstreet), 2.5 hrs (Recon)	75 km/hr approx
Fast Charge (DC)	45–60 min	80% in under 1 hour

So even if you forget to plug in overnight, a quick top-up during lunch can give you enough juice to get through your day.

And for long hauls? The UV Supernova Plus fast-charging network is expanding across India. It’s basically like a Formula 1 pitstop but for your bike.

Daily ride analytics = Smarter habits, better range

Thanks to Ultraviolette’s VIOLETTE A.I. and Delta Watch, the bike gives you full insight into how you ride, how much energy you’re using, and what habits are draining or saving your power.

You know how fitness bands tell you to walk more?

This is like that, but for your bike. And instead of guilt, it gives you extra kilometres as a reward.

Safety systems that help you ride efficiently

You might not think safety features are connected to energy, but hear this:

Traction Control
Hill Hold
Park Assist
Dynamic Stability Control (DSC)
ABS (Mono & Dual Channel)

All of these features reduce unnecessary wheelspin, hard braking, and energy spikes that drain your battery.

So when your ride is smooth and controlled, your battery gets to breathe easy.

Lightweight but tough: Every kilo counts

Kerb weight:

Superstreet: 197 kg
Recon: 207 kg

Now, you may think that’s slightly heavy for an EV, but look at what you’re getting:

Steel Trellis Frame with Aluminium Bulk Head
Large 17-inch tyres (110/70 front, 150/60 rear)
Upside-down front fork (41 mm)
Monoshock rear suspension

This setup is built to absorb India’s roads without draining power unnecessarily.

Efficiency is also about not wasting energy fighting bumps, losing grip, or struggling with imbalance. The F77 nails that sweet spot.

Connectivity: Because your bike should be as smart as your phone

The F77 is connected over LTE with an integrated eSIM. It also supports:

Wi-Fi (802.11 a/b/g/n/ac)
Bluetooth 5
GPS/GLONASS

Why does this matter for efficiency?

Because you can track your ride, charging status, software updates, and system performance remotely. That means no surprises, no breakdowns, and a better understanding of how to plan your routes efficiently.

The money side: Save in the long run

Let’s talk cash.

On average:

Petrol costs: ₹120–₹140 per full tank (for 200 km city range)
F77 charging: ₹35–₹50 (depends on electricity rates)

Over a year, that’s a difference of tens of thousands of rupees.

Even if you ride just 20 km daily, you’ll feel the savings in the first few months. And because the battery warranty goes up to 8 years or 8 lakh km, this isn’t some short-term fix. This is a long-term investment in energy efficiency.

Who is the Superstreet F77 really for?

If you:

Love riding but hate waste
Want performance without polluting
Need range without charging drama
Like things that just work smarter
Then this is the bike made for your kind of lifestyle.

Whether you’re a working professional in Bengaluru, a weekend tourer from Pune, or just a rider who hates queuing up at petrol stations, the Superstreet fits right in.

Riding smart is the new riding fast

The Ultraviolette Superstreet F77 is not just another electric motorcycle. It’s a statement that you can ride fast, look sharp, and still care about how your machine uses energy.

In a country like India, where every rupee and every kilometre matters, energy efficiency isn’t a bonus; it’s a necessity.

And the Superstreet doesn’t make you choose between brains and brawn. It gives you both.
