The Hero Vida VX2 is offered in five variants split across two sub-families – Go and Plus. All five use the same 6kW motor and feature removable, IP67-rated battery packs, with the main differences coming down to battery capacity, braking hardware, display and ride modes. Here's what each variant offers.
Vida VX2 variant breakdown
VX2 Go 2.2
The entry-level Go 2.2 uses the smallest 2.2kWh battery in the range, offering a claimed IDC range of 93km. Top speed is capped at 70kph, with a claimed 0-40kph time of 4.2 seconds. It comes with a 580W charger that takes 3 hours 7 minutes to charge from 0 to 80 percent.
The scooter is also available in a Go 2.2 RQ variant, which is mechanically identical but comes bundled with a faster 1,000W charger as standard. This reduces the claimed 0-80 percent charging time to 1 hour 41 minutes.
The VX2 Go 2.2 gets drum brakes at both ends with CBS, a 4.3-inch LCD display, and two riding modes – Eco and Ride. It also offers the largest underseat storage in the VX2 range at 33.2 litres, thanks to its smaller battery pack. The Vida VX2 Go 2.2 is priced at Rs 99,490, while the Go 2.2 RQ costs Rs 1.04 lakh.
VX2 Go 3.4
The larger 3.4kWh battery increases the claimed IDC range to 146km, although top speed and acceleration remain unchanged from the Go 2.2. This variant continues to use the 580W charger, with the larger battery increasing the claimed 0-80 percent charging time to 4 hours 44 minutes.
The bigger battery also reduces underseat storage to 27.2 litres, while the rest of the hardware and feature set remains identical to the Go 2.2. The Vida VX2 Go 3.4 is priced at Rs 1.21 lakh.
VX2 Plus 3.4
The VX2 Plus 3.4 uses the same 3.4kWh battery and 580W charger as the Go 3.4, with an identical claimed 0-80 percent charging time of 4 hours 44 minutes.
The differences lie in the equipment list. The Plus gets a front disc brake (paired with a rear drum and CBS), a 4.3-inch TFT display instead of the LCD unit, and an additional Sport riding mode alongside Eco and Ride. Performance also improves, with top speed increasing to 80kph while the claimed 0-40kph time drops to 3.1 seconds. The Vida VX2 Plus 3.4 is priced at Rs 1.31 lakh.
VX2 Plus 4.4
The range-topping and most recently launched VX2 Plus 4.4 gets the largest battery pack in the lineup, delivering a claimed IDC range of 187km. It comes bundled with the same 1,000W charger as the Go 2.2 RQ, bringing the claimed 0-80 percent charging time down to 3 hours 17 minutes despite the larger battery.
It shares the Plus 3.4's braking hardware, TFT display and three riding modes, but offers better performance with a 90kph top speed while retaining the same claimed 3.1-second 0-40kph time. The Vida VX2 Plus 4.4 is priced at Rs 1.51 lakh.
