Vida VX2 Electric Scooter Debuts in India with Starting Price of Rs 59,490

Hero MotoCorp’s electric mobility division, Vida, has officially launched its latest electric scooter, the Vida VX2, in India. The VX2 aims to make EV ownership more affordable and accessible through a unique Battery-as-a-Service (BaaS) subscription model.

With this new pricing structure, the Vida VX2 Go is priced at Rs 59,490, and the VX2 Plus at Rs 64,990 (both ex-showroom). These prices apply when customers choose to lease the battery instead of purchasing it, significantly lowering the initial cost of the scooter.

Full Purchase Price Without Subscription

For those who prefer to own the battery outright, the pricing increases to:

• Rs 99,490 (ex-showroom) for VX2 Go

• Rs 1,09,990 (ex-showroom) for VX2 Plus

This dual pricing structure offers flexibility for consumers with different ownership preferences and budgets.

Battery-as-a-Service: Low Running Cost and Battery Guarantee

Vida claims that the BaaS option reduces the running cost to just Rs 0.96/km. Additionally, if battery performance drops below 70% during the subscription period, Vida will replace it free of cost, offering peace of mind to users concerned about battery longevity.

The Vida VX2 variants offer compelling battery configurations:

• VX2 Go: 2.2kWh removable battery with IDC-certified range of up to 92km
