The first scooter to roll out of Ultraviolett’s production line is finally here, and from what I can gather, it was well worth the wait. There’s so much to like about this e-scoot, especially its INR120,000 (US$1,380) price tag. But is there a catch?

Ultraviolette, the marque behind the fastest Indian motorcycle of all time, has a fun new ride on the way for trail junkies. The Shockwave enduro packs a ton of torque into a featherweight feature-filled electric package, for just over $2,000.

Ola’s CEO, Bhavish Aggarwal took to X to share pictures of what looks like its production-ready, Bumblebee-inspired Arrowhead sports bike. But is it worth the hype? We dive in.

Hyundai teamed up with TVS – the world's third largest two-wheeler manufacturer – to showcase a couple of cool electric micro mobility concept vehicles for India's congested roads. That includes a compact car, and a thoughtfully reimagined rickshaw.

The recently revealed TVS RTS X Supermoto concept has all the credentials to be KTM 390 SMC Supermoto's kryptonite. It's just as potent with a possibly better design, and might even turn out to be cheaper if and when it eventually enters production.

We saw the world’s first CNG motorcycle in the Bajaj Freedom 125 last year. Now, we see the tech carried over to the world’s first CNG scooter. The TVS Jupiter CNG comes with 2-liter gas tank and a 1.4-kg CNG cylinder, good for a 140-mile range.

Yamaha is set to follow Kawasaki into the hybrid segment, with the FZ-S Hybrid. Spotted at Bharat Mobility Expo 2025 in India, it's part of a sea change at Yamaha, the ripples of which will surely be felt throughout the motorcycle industry.

The Himalayas are a bucket-list travel destination for motorcyclists the world over – and the perfect setting for a rich variety of rookie errors that can really ruin your day. Here's some mistakes I've made, so with a bit of luck, you don't have to.

Ultraviolette’s forthcoming electric superbike, the F99 has achieved an Indian quarter-mile record of 10.712 seconds. It sets the stage for the brand’s global ambitions as it begins retail sales in Europe. A US release might not be too far off either.

Indian EV manufacturer Ola Electric has made another extraordinary announcement, launching a new range of radically cheap electric scooters, complete with swappable batteries, that'll set riders back a fraction of the cost of a typical ebike.

Ultraviolette has taken the wraps off the all-new F99, branding it India’s first ever superbike. Drawing its design inspiration from supersonic jets, the bike can go from standstill to 60 mph in 3 seconds on the way to its claimed top speed.

Ola's super-cheap electric roadsters caused a global stir at launch, but issues are now becoming apparent, from the subpar base variant lacking basic safety equipment, to an embarrassing case of outright plagiarism of Zero Motorcycles’ press photos.
