The upcoming Vida VX2 electric scooter has been spotted at a dealership, fully undisguised, ahead of its official launch on July 1, 2025. This marks the debut of the production-spec version of the Vida Z, which was first showcased at the EICMA motorcycle show last year. With its clean and modern design, the VX2 is shaping up to be Hero MotoCorp’s most accessible electric scooter yet.
Design
The VX2 looks nearly identical to the Vida Z concept, with sharp body lines and a clean layout. The scooter seen at the dealership was finished in a matte yellow color, giving it a vibrant and youthful look. From the visible styling, the VX2 appears to retain the minimalist yet sporty design of its concept version.
The overall form remains compact and urban-friendly, making it ideal for daily city commutes. Expect the production model to be available in multiple color options, catering to a wide range of customer preferences.
Positioning
Hero is aiming the VX2 at the entry-level segment of the electric scooter market. It will sit below the currently available Vida V2 in terms of price and features. By offering a more affordable alternative, the brand hopes to attract new electric scooter buyers, especially in the urban and semi-urban markets.
Battery and Power
The Vida VX2 will use Hero’s modular platform, which supports a variety of battery configurations. The scooter will likely be offered in several variants with battery capacities ranging from 2.2kWh to 4.4kWh. This gives buyers the flexibility to choose a model based on their budget and daily riding needs.
Powering the VX2 will be a permanent magnet synchronous motor (PMSM), which should deliver smooth and efficient performance. While Hero hasn’t disclosed the motor’s power output yet, it is expected to provide a good balance of range and performance suitable for city commuting.
Features
Even though it’s an entry-level offering, the VX2 won’t be short on features. Based on early information and the spotted model, it will come with:
- Removable battery packs for easy home charging
- A touchscreen TFT display for a modern instrument cluster
- All-LED lighting for better visibility and styling
- Smartphone connectivity to access ride data and navigation
- Advanced telematics for tracking and diagnostics
These features will place the VX2 ahead of many budget electric scooters, giving it a tech-friendly edge.
Competition
Once launched, the Vida VX2 will go up against the lower-end variants of the Bajaj Chetak Electric and the TVS iQube. Both rivals are well-established in the market, but Hero’s pricing strategy and feature-loaded package could shake up the competition.
The key selling points for the VX2 will likely be its affordability, flexible battery options, and modern tech features, all backed by Hero’s extensive service network.
With its official launch date confirmed for July 1, 2025, the Vida VX2 is set to expand Hero’s electric portfolio and make EV commuting more accessible to a wider audience.
