In January, 2023, deliveries of Hero Motocorp’s first electric two-wheeler, the Vida V1 scooter, commenced. Launched under the brand’s electric spinoff brand Vida, the V1 scooter entered an already competitive electric scooter landscape in India, doing battle with the likes of the TVS iQube, Ather 450, and Ola S1 scooters. Now, half-a-year into the scooter’s run, Hero has bestowed the V1 with a few updates. Let’s take a closer look.
For starters, the updated Vida V1 gets two new paint options: Cyan and Black, alongside the existing colors of white, orange, and red. This expands the range of choices to a total of five vibrant colors. Despite the color changes, the general appearance, which includes a contemporary and dynamic bodywork design, remains the same. With apron-mounted LED headlights, the scooter has a sophisticated and energetic appearance accentuated by the two-tone finish. Lastly, it retains its step-up saddle that allows for comfortable two-up riding and can accommodate two riders.
