Anticipation has been building in the electric two-wheeler market, and Hero MotoCorp's electric brand, Vida, is about to deliver. On July 1, 2025, Vida is set to unveil a new, more accessible electric scooter, the Vida VX2 . This upcoming model is expected to be positioned below the current Vida V2 lineup, indicating Vida's strategic push into the mass-market EV space.For some time, industry observers wondered if this new scooter would be an entirely fresh design or if it would carry forward the identity of the Vida Z, which was showcased at the 2025 Auto Expo. Now, the first set of spy shots have provided the definitive answer. The forthcoming Hero Vida VX2 has been confirmed as the production version of the Vida Z, designed specifically as an affordable offering. Units spotted at showrooms, devoid of any disguise, reveal crucial design details and the equipment package intended for its price point.Design and Confirmed VariantsCaptured in a vibrant matte yellow finish, the spied VX2 units clearly display the "VX2" badge on their side panels. Additionally, the presence of a "Plus" badge indicates that, just like the Vida V2, the VX2 series will likely feature multiple variants, potentially including Lite, Plus, and Pro trims. This variant structure suggests tiered options for different budgets and feature requirements.Current Vida V2 pricing starts from Rs 74,000 for the Lite variant, Rs 85,300 for the Plus, and Rs 1,15,300 for the Pro (all prices Effective Ex-showroom). The equipment observed on the Vida VX2 suggests it's a less feature-rich product compared to the V2, contributing to its anticipated lower cost.Targeting AffordabilityThe most significant aspect of the Vida VX2 could be its pricing. Speculation places its starting Effective Ex-showroom price at around Rs 65,000 . If accurate, this highly competitive price point has the potential to dramatically boost Vida's sales and accelerate the adoption of electric scooters across India.Despite its focus on affordability, the Vida VX2 doesn't compromise entirely on aesthetics. It maintains a visually appealing presence with LED projector headlights, LED tail lights, and LED sequential turn indicators . The scooter is also fitted with 12-inch dual-tone alloy wheels (the same design found on the V2) and includes a front disc brake for confident stopping power.Key Differences for a Lower Price TagTo achieve its more accessible pricing, the VX2 incorporates certain features that differentiate it from the more premium V2 lineup. Notably, the VX2 features a physical key hole, a departure from the Vida V2's standard smart key with keyless go. The instrument display is also a crucial distinction; while it is likely a color TFT unit offering connectivity and navigation, it appears to be a smaller screen and lacks the touchscreen functionality that comes standard even on the base Vida V2 Lite.Further cost-saving measures are evident in the simpler body panels, which require less complex and expensive tooling. The VX2 also opts for a single piece seat, in contrast to the split seat configuration of the Vida V2. However, the extensive switchgear, including a joystick, suggests robust control despite the non-touchscreen display.PowertrainWhile powertrain specifics are yet to be officially confirmed, it's expected that the Vida VX2 will leverage the same removable battery architecture as the Vida V2 lineup. This would mean battery pack options likely ranging between 2.2 kWh to 3.9 kWh . Depending on the chosen battery, the scooter could offer a claimed IDC (Indian Driving Cycle) range of up to 165 km .With its official launch date set for July 1, 2025 , the Hero Vida VX2 is positioned to be a significant contender in the evolving electric scooter landscape, offering a compelling blend of design, practicality, and crucial affordability.
