Indian electric motorcycle maker Ultraviolette Automotive made a strong impression at CES 2026 by unveiling an all-new AI-powered voice assistant integrated into its flagship F77 superbike. The feature, called Ultraviolette AI Voice, allows riders to control key functions hands-free while riding, marking one of the most advanced voice interfaces ever seen on a production motorcycle.
The AI assistant is built directly into the F77’s 10.25-inch TFT touchscreen and supports natural language commands in English and Hindi. Riders can say things like “turn on heated grips,” “play my workout playlist,” “navigate to home,” “check battery range,” “increase regenerative braking,” or “find the nearest charging station.” The system understands context and follow-up questions, so you can ask “how much range is left?” and later say “can I make it to the next charger?” without repeating yourself.
Ultraviolette worked with an Indian AI startup to train the voice model on real-world riding scenarios, motorcycle-specific vocabulary, and noisy environments (wind, engine, traffic). The assistant uses bone-conduction speakers in the helmet (optional accessory) or the bike’s built-in speakers for clear output even at high speeds.
Other highlights shown:
- Voice-activated turn-by-turn navigation with live traffic rerouting.
- Real-time bike health alerts (“Your chain tension is low”).
- Personalised ride modes (“Switch to Eco mode for city traffic”).
- Integration with the Ultraviolette mobile app for remote status checks and preconditioning.
The feature will be available first on the limited-edition F77 Mach 2 and will roll out to all existing F77 owners via OTA update in Q2 2026. New 2026 F77 models will ship with it from the factory.
CEO Narayan Subramaniam said, “We want the F77 to feel like a living motorcycle that understands its rider. This AI voice assistant is a big step toward making electric superbikes more intuitive and safer.”
Pricing for the voice-enabled F77 Mach 2 starts at ₹3.99 lakh (ex-showroom), while the standard F77 continues from ₹3.80 lakh. The update is free for existing owners.
Ultraviolette also confirmed plans to bring the voice assistant to future models, including the upcoming F99 electric superbike expected later in 2026.
If you’re an F77 owner or planning to buy one, this OTA update adds serious value. CES attendees gave strong early feedback on how natural and responsive the assistant feels. Stay tuned for more updates as Ultraviolette rolls it out.
