The Vida VX2 just got more tempting. Barely days after hitting the roads, Vida has slashed the price of its entry-level VX2 Go by a neat Rs. 15,000. This brings the ex-showroom price down from Rs. 59,490 to just Rs. 44,990. That’s a pretty sweet deal if you’ve been thinking of ditching petrol for electric.
Variants That Fit All
The VX2 lineup has two options — the Go and the Plus. The Go is the base variant but doesn’t feel stripped down. You still get a good package for city commutes. The Plus adds more juice with a bigger battery, giving you better range and a slightly higher top speed.
What really stands out with the VX2 is the Battery as a Service (BaaS) model. It’s simple — don’t pay upfront for the battery. Instead, pay for what you ride. This cuts the starting cost by a good chunk and makes it easier for first-time EV buyers to jump in.
Battery, Range, And Speed
So what does the VX2 pack under the seat? The base VX2 Go comes with a smaller battery pack than the Plus, but it’s still good enough for daily city hops. The top speed is capped for safe urban use and the range will easily cover your short runs to work or the market.
If you pick the Plus, you get a bit more freedom to stretch those daily rides with more range and quicker acceleration. Both variants feel smooth on city roads, easy to manoeuvre in traffic, and light enough for quick U-turns in tight lanes.
Riding Comfort And Features
Don’t let the price cut make you think Vida has skimped on comfort. The VX2 keeps it simple but smart. The seat feels comfy enough for everyday rides. The digital cluster gives you all you need — battery levels, range, and riding modes.
For safety, you get CBS which helps during quick braking. The under-seat storage is decent for a small bag or charger. Many riders love how light the VX2 feels compared to some bulky scooters in the same segment.
Why The Price Drop?
Hero MotoCorp knows what it’s doing. Cutting the VX2 Go’s price right after launch is all about pulling in new riders fast. EVs are still finding space in India’s two-wheeler market and this kind of aggressive pricing helps make the shift easier for many.
The BaaS model adds another layer. Not everyone wants to pay big upfront for an electric scooter battery. With BaaS, you pay as you ride, which keeps your pockets happy if you’re on a budget.
Is It Worth It Now?
At Rs. 44,990, the VX2 Go feels like a no-brainer for students, city commuters, and anyone wanting a second runabout for quick errands. Sure, you won’t be hitting highways on this, but for city limits, it’s got the right balance of range, speed, and comfort.
How long this discounted price stays is anyone’s guess. Hero MotoCorp hasn’t shared a clear timeline yet. But if you’re serious about moving to an electric scooter, this is a chance worth grabbing before the offer rides off.
So next time you spot the neat little VX2 zipping through your lane, remember — it’s more affordable than you thought. With this price drop, Vida just made the electric switch easier for everyone.
