Hero MotoCorp Limited's electric mobility brand VIDA launched the new VIDA EVOOTER VX2 Plus 4.4 kWh variant, priced at Rs 1,43,990 in New Delhi. The long-range variant is designed to support longer journeys with faster charging, and expands VIDA's VX2 lineup to four variants for different rider requirements as part of the 'GHAR GHAR EVOOTER' vision.
The VX2 Plus 4.4 kWh carries a total battery capacity of 4.4 kWh through dual 2.2 kWh removable units, delivering an IDC-certified range of 187 km. It includes a 1 kW portable charger that charges from 0% to 80% in 3 hours 30 minutes and supports DC fast charging that reaches the same level in 65 minutes. VIDA's network of over 6,000 fast charging stations and more than 700 service touchpoints provides support for the variant.
The scooter reaches a top speed of 90 kmph with 6 kW peak power and 26 Nm torque, offering three riding modes — Eco, Ride, and Sports with a Boost feature for overtaking. It features a 4.3-inch TFT display, smartphone integration, turn-by-turn navigation, and OTA updates, along with 27.2 litres of under-seat storage and a CBS braking system tuned for Indian road conditions.
VIDA entered the Asia Book of Records for the 'Longest Journey by an Electric Scooter' after completing a 12,111 km journey. The 52-day ride from Bengaluru to Delhi, in partnership with rider Girish Shet, traced a route through all Kolkata Knight Riders match host cities and validated the variant's endurance and charging convenience during extended road use.
Kausalya Nandakumar, Chief Business Officer of the Emerging Mobility Business Unit at Hero MotoCorp, said the variant addresses demand for longer range and faster charging for EV adoption. VIDA is also offering Battery-as-a-Service (BaaS) plans. The VIDA VX2 Plus 4.4 kWh will be available at authorised dealerships nationwide by end of July 2026.
