India’s largest two-wheeler manufacturer, Hero MotoCorp, is set to expand its electric mobility portfolio with the upcoming Hero Vida VX2 Electric Scooter. Positioned as a more affordable sibling to the existing Vida V1, the VX2 is expected to combine stylish design, urban convenience, and robust performance for daily commuters seeking an eco-friendly ride. The scooter is tailored to the growing demand for efficient EVs in the sub-₹1 lakh segment.
Compact Yet Smart Design With Vibrant Colors
The Vida VX2 adopts a compact and youthful design language with bold color options, ideal for city rides and first-time electric vehicle buyers. With a slightly smaller frame than the Vida V1, the VX2 targets urban riders who value agility and easy maneuverability in traffic. The scooter is expected to come with a full digital instrument cluster, LED lighting, and minimalistic styling that complements its modern electric profile.
Decent Performance With City-Focused Powertrain
While Hero has not officially revealed the powertrain specs, the VX2 is rumored to feature a hub-mounted electric motor offering a top speed of around 50–60 kmph, making it suitable for city commutes and last-mile connectivity. The scooter is likely to come with dual riding modes Eco and Power for better control of speed and battery usage. It is expected to offer smooth acceleration with minimal maintenance needs compared to traditional petrol scooters.
Battery Range and Portable Charging
The Vida VX2 may house a removable lithium-ion battery pack, offering a real-world range of 60 to 85 km on a single charge, depending on riding mode and terrain. Hero is likely to offer portable charging options, allowing users to charge the scooter conveniently at home or the office. Charging time may vary between 4 to 6 hours with a standard charger.
Smart Features and Connectivity
Just like its elder sibling, the VX2 could come equipped with connected features such as ride statistics, scooter tracking, turn-by-turn navigation, and OTA (Over-The-Air) updates via a companion mobile app. The scooter is also expected to include regenerative braking, reverse assist, and anti-theft alerts, appealing to the tech-savvy generation of urban riders.
Expected Price and Launch Timeline
The Hero Vida VX2 is expected to launch in India by late 2025, with an estimated ex-showroom price between ₹85,000 to ₹95,000. Positioned below the Vida V1, it aims to rival affordable EVs like the Bajaj Chetak Urbane, Ola S1 Air, and TVS iQube base model. Hero may also introduce attractive EMI options and government subsidies under FAME II and state EV policies to make it more accessible.
Practical, Affordable, and Smart EV for City Riders
The Hero Vida VX2 is shaping up to be a promising addition to the urban EV space with its balanced design, decent range, smart connectivity, and Hero’s trusted after-sales network. If priced aggressively, it could be a game-changer for users looking to transition from petrol to electric without compromising on reliability and practicality.
