Evooter VX2 Plus 4.4 kWh
Featuring an impressive 187 km Indian Driving Cycle (IDC) range, this new long-range variant is
engineered to power seamless, anxiety-free, and long-distance journeys.
Establishes a historic benchmark in the Asia Book of Records for the ‘Longest Journey by an Electric
Scooter.’
Available at an attractive price of INR 1,43,990* in New Delhi.
New Delhi, 10 July 2026: VIDA, powered by Hero, has strengthened its electric lineup with the introduction
of the new VIDA EVOOTER VX2 Plus 4.4 kWh. This long-range variant is engineered to accelerate the brand’s
vision of ‘GHAR GHAR EVOOTER.’ With this addition, VIDA now offers four distinct VX2 variants tailored to
the diverse lifestyles and requirements of Indian riders. The new long-range variant has proven its unparalleled
endurance through a historic cross-country expedition, officially securing a spot in the Asia Book of Records
for the ‘Longest Journey by an Electric Scooter.’
The VIDA EVOOTER VX2 Plus 4.4 kWh priced at INR 1,43,990* features a total battery capacity of 4.4 kWh
via dual 2.2 kWh removable units, achieving an IDC-certified range of 187 km. This variant comes with a 1
kW portable charger capable of charging 0% to 80% in 3 hours and 30 minutes. For riders on the move, it
also supports high-speed DC fast charging, replenishing the battery from 0% to 80% in 65 minutes.
Additionally, with VIDA’s extensive network of over 6,000 fast charging stations and 700+ service touchpoints,
riders are guaranteed accessible and reliable support wherever the road takes them. Engineered for both urban
agility and long-haul reliability, the VIDA VX2 Plus 4.4 kWh delivers a dynamic yet versatile riding experience.
The VIDA EVOOTER VX2 Plus 4.4 kWh hits a top speed of 90 km/h - backed by a 6 kW peak power and 26
Nm torque - and features three distinct riding modes - Eco, Ride and Sports with a Boost feature to aid in
overtaking. This performance is matched by cutting-edge technology, including a 4.3-inch TFT display,
smartphone integration, turn-by-turn navigation, and OTA updates. The VIDA EVOOTER VX2 Plus 4.4 kWh
emphasizes rider utility with 27.2 litres of under-seat storage, and a CBS braking system specifically tuned to
handle Indian road conditions.
Speaking on the launch, Kausalya Nandakumar, Chief Business Officer, Emerging Mobility Business Unit,
Hero MotoCorp, stated: “Every innovation we drive is a direct reflection of our customers' needs. The demand for
longer, uninterrupted journeys and faster charging is a critical requirement for EV adoption. With the VIDA
EVOOTER VX2 Plus 4.4 kWh variant, we are offering a longer range that completely fulfills our riders' long-
distance aspirations elevated by the first-in-industry 1kW portable charger. By expanding our portfolio to four
distinct variants, we are ensuring that ‘GHAR GHAR EVOOTER’ isn’t a one-size-fits-all solution, but a tailored
choice backed by deep consumer trust and proven engineering durability.”
VIDA has officially secured its place in the Asia Book of Records for the “Longest Journey by an Electric
Scooter” after completing an extraordinary 12,111 km journey. Partnering with Girish Shet – a passionate
rider and a Kolkata Knight Riders (KKR) fan, this historic 52-day continuous ride began in Bengaluru and
culminated in Delhi, tracing a route through all KKR match host cities. The expedition successfully validated
the reliability of the new VIDA EVOOTER VX2 Plus 4.4 kWh variant, demonstrating unmatched endurance
and seamless ease of charging during an extended road trip.
Additionally, VIDA is also offering Battery-as-a-Service (BaaS) plans to ensure that
electric mobility remains flexible and affordable for all. The VIDA VX2 Plus 4.4 kWh will be available across
authorized dealerships nationwide by end of July 2026.
