Ultraviolette Announces BIGGA Factory

BENGALURU:
Ultraviolette today announced plans to establish its BIGGA (Big Global Ambition) Factory, a new state-of-the-art manufacturing facility in Hosur, Tamil Nadu.

The facility marks a significant expansion of Ultraviolette’s manufacturing footprint and will provide the capacity and infrastructure required to support the company’s next phase of growth in India and international markets. The BIGGA Factory will ramp up to an annual manufacturing capacity of 250,000 vehicles in a phased manner, with infrastructure designed to scale production to 500,000 vehicles per annum as demand grows.

The facility will manufacture Ultraviolette’s highly anticipated Tesseract electric scooter, and provide the capacity and scale to support the company’s future product portfolio across multiple segments, including Sports, Crossover, Cruiser, Street and Scooters. The project is expected to create approximately 2,000 job opportunities in its initial phase, scaling further over the next five years, as the facility scales its operations.

Narayan Subramaniam, Co-founder & CEO, Ultraviolette, commented on the announcement, “We are at an inflection point in Ultraviolette’s journey. Over the last few years, we have built our foundation around technology, performance and product innovation; the next phase is about building the scale to take that foundation much further. The BIGGA Factory is a significant step in that direction, giving us the manufacturing capacity and infrastructure to scale Tesseract and our future products, while creating the ability to serve a much larger customer base in India and international markets. Our current facility in Bengaluru, Karnataka will continue its regular operations alongside the BIGGA Factory, strengthening our long-term manufacturing and technology footprint in India.”

“Hosur is a key manufacturing hub with a well-established automotive ecosystem, significant supply-chain advantages and close proximity to Ultraviolette’s R&D operations and existing supplier network. These strategic advantages, combined with the scale, precision and manufacturing agility of the BIGGA Factory, will enable us to deliver the Tesseract and our future products to customers in India and international markets while maintaining the highest standards of quality and performance. The BIGGA Factory will further strengthen our ability to innovate and contribute to India’s emergence as a global hub for electric-vehicle technology and manufacturing,” said Niraj Rajmohan, Co-founder & CTO, Ultraviolette.

Building the Manufacturing Scale for the Future The Government of Tamil Nadu will facilitate the allotment of land for the manufacturing facility in Hosur at SIPCOT Industrial Park, Shoolagiri. The BIGGA Factory is strategically located within one of India’s established automotive manufacturing ecosystems, with proximity to Bengaluru, Ultraviolette’s R&D operations and its wider supplier network.

The BIGGA Factory is being designed as a future-ready manufacturing ecosystem, bringing together advanced digital systems, automation and quality engineering to create a highly scalable and agile production environment. Built around Industry 4.0 manufacturing principles, the facility will deploy a Manufacturing Execution System (MES) to enable real-time production track-and-trace, supported by digital lean manufacturing and digital quality systems.

Advanced automation, including collaborative robots for sorting, welding and assembly, automated assembly fool-proofing and vision-based inspection systems, will be deployed across key manufacturing processes. Together, these technologies will support greater precision, process consistency and manufacturing efficiency.

This Green facility has been planned with scalability and flexibility at its core, enabling Ultraviolette to progressively scale production of the Tesseract while creating the manufacturing infrastructure required to bring future products into production as the company’s portfolio evolves. A specialised test track will enable every vehicle to undergo rigorous evaluation before dispatch, ensuring that design, performance, and quality remain deeply embedded across the manufacturing and ownership journey.

Scaling the Vision for Electric Mobility The BIGGA Factory marks a defining milestone in Ultraviolette’s evolution from a performance electric mobility pioneer to a technology-led company operating at scale. Bringing together advanced production capabilities, sustainable infrastructure, and access to one of India’s most established automotive ecosystems, the facility will form the industrial backbone of Ultraviolette’s next phase of growth. The ambition is to build Indian electric-vehicle technology and manufacturing capabilities that can compete on a global stage creating products in India, scaling them through world-class manufacturing and taking them to customers across international markets.
