How Did Vida Achieve This Incredible Feat?
Vida’s journey to 1 lakh sales has been nothing short of spectacular, especially in the last few months. The brand has been on a meteoric rise, and it’s all thanks to a smart and aggressive strategy. July 2025 was a record-breaking month for Vida, with the company registering its best-ever monthly sales of over 10,000 scooters. This represents a staggering 107% year-on-year growth and has doubled its market share to a solid 10%.
The VX2: The EV That Changed the Game
The secret weapon behind this explosive growth is the recent launch of the new Vida VX2 series. Hero strategically introduced these models at a price point that has sent shockwaves through the industry.
- Ultra-Affordable Pricing: The new Vida VX2 Go, with the innovative Battery-as-a-Service (BaaS) option, costs just ₹44,990. The VX2 Plus with BaaS is priced at ₹57,990.
- What is BaaS? The Battery-as-a-Service model is a game-changer. Instead of buying the expensive battery outright, you pay for its use based on the distance you travel. This drastically reduces the initial cost of the scooter, making it accessible to a much wider audience.
Built on a Foundation of Trust and Convenience
Riding a Vida is not just about owning a scooter; it’s about being part of a growing ecosystem.
- Massive Charging Network: Vida owners have access to a robust charging infrastructure with over 4,500 charging points across the country, which also includes Ather’s widely spread Grid stations.
- Hero’s Service Guarantee: Being a product of Hero MotoCorp, the world’s largest two-wheeler manufacturer, Vida comes with the promise of a vast and reliable service network, giving buyers complete peace of mind.
