VIDA, powered by Hero, has launched the VX2 EVOOTER, aiming to make electric vehicle ownership more accessible and affordable in India. The launch introduces disruptive customer solutions, including a “Pay-per-kilometre” Battery-as-a-Service (BaaS) model and competitive pricing for its new electric scooter.
Dr. Pawan Munjal, Executive Chairman of Hero MotoCorp, stated,
“With the VIDA VX2 EVOOTER, we are not simply launching a product—we are delivering an ecosystem that empowers change. This is our promise: to make sustainable mobility widely accessible, to make our products highly affordable, and to always lead with trust, responsibility, and purpose.”
Introducing the “EVOOTER”

Innovative Ownership Models
