Hero’s electric two-wheeler division, Vida, is all set to launch a new electric scooter range in India, on July 1, 2025. Hero had recently revealed in an earnings call that it plans to launch two affordable EVs in July this year. Interestingly, Hero recently applied for the trademark of the names “VIDA VX2”, “VIDA VX2 PRO”, “VIDA VX2 PLUS”, and “VIDA VX2 GO”. These names clearly indicate a range of electric scooters with different variants. The most obvious deduction seems like the new names of Hero’s existing V2 lineup. However, that seems unlikely since Hero changed its EVs’ names from V1 to V2 only in December 2024.
The other possibility could be that it may be a family-friendly, affordable range of electric scooters that will likely be cheaper than the existing V2 range. The latest variant-wise pricelist of the Vida V2 e-scooter range is as follows:
|
Variants of the Vida V2 |
Price (ex-showroom Delhi) |
|
V2 Lite |
Rs 74,000 |
|
V2 Plus |
Rs 85,300 |
|
VMa2 Pro |
Rs 1,15,300 |
The VX2 range is likely to be more affordable by around Rs 4,000 to Rs 10,000 over the respective V2 variants. If our price guess is right, then Hero will have a healthy lineup of electric scooters catering to different users at different price points. Hero has been lagging behind in the electric scooter space when compared to other big brands such as Bajaj and TVS. But with the upcoming lineup, Hero should slowly be able to gain the market share. We’ll know more on July 1, 2025.
