Hero MotoCorp has launched the entry-level GO variant of the Vida VX2 electric scooter with a larger 3.4 kWh battery pack, priced at Rs 1.02 lakh (ex-showroom). Earlier, the VX2 GO was limited to just a 2.2 kWh unit, while the 3.4 kWh unit was exclusive to the VX2 Plus variant.
Like other variants, this will also be available with Battery-as-a-Service (BaaS) option, with prices starting at Rs 60,000, with a pay-per-km charge of Rs 0.90.
