Range
Battery range is a much more critical factor for electric scooters than traditional range. With varying battery sizes, the Tesseract has three different range levels.
The company claims that the 3.5kWh version has a range of 162km and the 5kWh version has a range of up to 220km under claimed test conditions. The company also claims that the 6kWh flagship offers 261km of range.
Depending on traffic, road and weather conditions, rider and load weight and speed, actual range may be reduced.
| Variant | Battery | Claimed Range | Best Use |
| 3.5 | 3.5 kWh | 162 km | City |
| 5 | 5 kWh | 220 km | City + Highway |
| 6 | 6 kWh | 261 km | Long Distance |
Charging & Battery
The Tesseract comes equipped with some big batteries, relative to many electric scooters. The designers will use the fast charging property to minimize charging downtime, and the increased battery options will give riders a longer range between charge cycles.
The scooter will also be gaining from the Ultraviolette’s previous high-performance electric powertrain experience.

Buying Advice
The 3.5kWh unit would be the smart choice for customers who primarily ride in cities and are looking to get the lowest entry price. It boasts an estimated range of 162km which is enough for most commutes.
The 5kWh version has a great price to range/performance ratio. It will likely be the best one for those who ride for longer periods of time on a regular basis.
The 6kWh is targeted at those who demand the utmost range and don’t care if their price is higher. It has a claimed 261km range making it most appropriate for long-distance electric scooter use.
| Requirement | Recommended |
| Lowest Price | Tesseract 3.5 |
| City Use | Tesseract 3.5 |
| Best Balance | Tesseract 5 |
| Long Range | Tesseract 6 |
| Maximum Battery | Tesseract 6 |
| Technology | Tesseract 6 |
| Performance | Tesseract 5/6 |
Verdict
It is a bold electric scooter, which merges performance, range and technology in a way that is not very common in the Indian market. The designers focused on performance, achieving a top speed of 125km/h, a 0-60km/h acceleration time of 2.9 seconds, and a range of up to 261km.
The 3.5kWh version is probably more suitable for urban riders, whereas the 5kWh version strikes the best balance. For those that care more about range, the 6kWh variant is the flagship option.
The most important thing to consider is the final launch and production specification. We advise buyers to wait for final pricing, delivery dates, and production details as we expect to release this in Q1 2027.
