Ultraviolette expands operations to Nepal, opens first outlet
Ultraviolette Automotive has expanded its operations in Nepal and inaugurated its first international dealership outside of India. The Bengaluru-based electric two-wheeler start-up opened its first UV Space Station in Narayanchaur, Kathmandu, which will retail the F77 Mach 2 electric performance motorcycle. The Ultraviolette F77 Mach 2 is priced from NPR (Nepalese Rupee) 8.44 lakh, going up to NPR 9.69 lakh. In comparison, the F77 Mach 2 starts from ₹2.99 lakh, going up to ₹3.99 lakh (ex-showroom) in India.
Ultraviolette Expands To Nepal
Ultraviolette’s foray into Nepal comes after the company announced setting up shop in Europe last year. The brand is the latest Indian electric vehicle player to establish a presence in Nepal after the likes of Ather Energy and Ampere. The expansion to Nepal falls in line with UV’s global aspirations as the company recently commenced exports to Europe. Meanwhile, the brand has presence in five major cities in India and is also working on expanding its reach in the domestic market.
