“Hey Violette”: Ultraviolette Unveils AI Voice Assistant For F77 At CES 2026
Indian EV startup Ultraviolette has showcased an AI-powered voice assistant at CES 2026. The voice assistant, called "Violette," is integrated into the brand's Ultraviolette F77 electric motorcycles. Ultraviolette co-developed this AI-based voice assistant system with SoundHound AI. This feature lets riders interact with bikes just like smartphone-based voice assistants.
Ultraviolette New AI Voice Assistant
'Violette' is an AI assistant developed by Ultraviolette and SoundHound to make riding easier and more advanced. Riders are already familiar with voice assistants on smartphones such as Google Assistant, Siri, Bixby, and Alexa. Violette works similarly, with the key difference being that it is fully integrated into Ultraviolette motorcycles.
At the ongoing CES 2026 event in the US, the company demonstrated this new voice assistant feature to the audience. To activate the system, users need to say "Violette." Just like Google and Siri, the voice assistant wakesup to answer queries.
Once activated, the AI assistant can perform multiple functions, including changing riding modes, accessing the motorcycle's user manual to answer vehicle-related queries, assisting with navigation, recommending tyre pressures, providing service tips, and offering how-to guides.
Ultraviolette also claims that features such as ride data, pre-ride checks, service reminders, and alerts can be accessed without the rider needing to touch the motorcycle or look at the instrument cluster.
Ultraviolette motorcycles are already among the most technologically advanced electric two-wheelers, and the addition of this AI assistant makes them even more futuristic.
The Aim is to reduce rider distraction while cruising on the road.
These AI-powered features help keep riders connected to their motorcycle while staying informed about critical information. This allows riders to focus entirely on riding and enjoy a safer experience. The system operates through an audio-integrated helmet, which enables seamless communication between the rider and the motorcycle.
This technology is expected to be integrated into production models in the near future. Once launched, it could make Ultraviolette motorcycles among the most advanced connected two-wheelers, potentially surpassing even some high-end ICE-powered motorcycles in terms of technology.
