When we talk about electric two-wheelers in the premium segment, one name has recently stolen the spotlight: Ultraviolette Automotive. After the massive success of their F77 motorcycle, the company is shifting gears to redefine the scooter market with their latest concept—the Ultraviolette Tesseract.

This isn’t your average grocery-getter. The Tesseract is designed to be a performance machine disguised as a scooter. Here are our first impressions regarding its design philosophy and build quality.

A Design From the Future

The first thing you notice about the Tesseract is that it looks like a prop from a sci-fi movie. Ultraviolette has ditched the "cute" and "retro" designs that dominate the current electric scooter market (like the Ola or Ather). Instead, they have gone for a "Maxi-Scooter" aesthetic.

Aggressive Stance:
The Tesseract features a very aggressive, forward-leaning stance. It looks ready to launch even when it is standing still. The front apron is wide and sharp, likely providing excellent wind protection for the rider at high speeds.

Aerodynamic Lines:
The body panels are not just for show; they appear to be sculpted for aerodynamics. There are air vents and sharp creases that suggest the company is focusing heavily on airflow to cool the battery and motor during high-performance riding. The floating tail section adds to the sporty appeal, making it look more like a superbike than a scooter.

Build Quality and Materials

While we await the final production model for a hands-on stress test, the prototype and reveal units give us strong clues about the build quality.

DNA of the F77:
Ultraviolette has built a reputation for "over-engineering" their vehicles. The F77 is known for having one of the most rigid chassis in the EV game, and we expect the Tesseract to follow suit. The frame appears to be robust, capable of handling higher speeds and sharper cornering than a standard commuter scooter.

Fit and Finish:
From what has been showcased, the panel gaps look tight and consistent. The materials used on the bodywork appear to be a mix of high-grade composites. Unlike budget scooters that use flimsy plastic that rattles over bumps, the Tesseract looks solid and weighted. The switchgear and handlebars seem premium, likely borrowing components or design logic from its motorcycle sibling.

Ergonomics and Practicality

The Tesseract is a "crossover" vehicle. It bridges the gap between the comfort of a scooter and the thrill of a motorcycle.

• Seating: The seat looks spacious and is stepped, separating the rider and the pillion. This provides a bucket-seat feel for the rider, which is essential for stability when accelerating quickly.
• Footboard: Unlike flat-floor scooters, the Tesseract has a central spine (likely housing the battery or structural elements). This means you can’t carry a gas cylinder between your legs, but it allows for a much sportier riding posture where you grip the vehicle with your legs.
• Lighting: The lighting setup is signature Ultraviolette—sharp LED strips that are incredibly bright and distinct. It gives the vehicle a unique road presence at night.

The Verdict: First Impressions

The Ultraviolette Tesseract is bold, unapologetic, and premium. It is not trying to replace the budget commuter scooter; it is trying to create a new category of "Super Scooters."

Regarding design, it gets a 10/10 for originality. It looks distinct and dangerous. regarding build quality, if it is anything like the F77, it will likely be the most durable scooter in its class.

For riders looking for the ease of a twist-and-go scooter but who crave the adrenaline of a sportbike, the Tesseract is the machine to watch out for.
