Hero MotoCorp's first electric scooter, the much awaited Vida V1, has been released. The pricing of the V1 Plus and V1 Pro models has been pegged at Rs 145,000 ($1,762) and Rs 159,000 ($1,932), respectively. For a price of Rs 2,499 ($30), reservations for this new electric scooter have already begun in a few cities, including Bengaluru, Jaipur, and New Delhi. Delivery is anticipated to start in the second week of December.
The Vida V1 is a thoroughly modern electric scooter, and slots itself a notch above the likes of the Ola S1. The V1 Pro has a 3.94 kWh battery pack, compared to the 3.44 kWh battery pack that the V1 Plus has. Given these battery specifications, the models' respective ranges are 103 miles and 89 miles on a single charge. The battery pack is detachable, and Vida promises a quick charging time of a little over an hour to achieve an 80-percent charge.
