Pricing & Ownership Options
VIDA VX2 features a groundbreaking Battery-as-a-Service (BaaS) concept and is available in two variants: VX2 Go and VX2 Plus.
The VX2 Go is the most reasonably priced smart EV scooter in India under this option, costing at ₹59,490, while the VX2 Plus is priced at ₹64,990. With this type, users can rent the battery separately for a very affordable price of just ₹0.96 per kilometer, which drastically lowers the initial cost of purchase. For those who would rather own the batteries, the Go and Plus models cost ₹99,490 and ₹1,09,990, respectively. Users who choose the BaaS option can enjoy long-term savings and peace of mind with a battery replacement guarantee in the event that performance falls below 70%.

Two battery choices are available for the VIDA VX2 to accommodate various commuting requirements. The VX2 Go’s 2.2 kWh detachable lithium-ion battery provides an amazing 92 km of IDC-certified range on a single charge, making it perfect for daily city trips. The VX2 Plus has a larger 3.4 kWh battery pack that provides a significant 142 km range per charge for customers looking for a longer range.
Fast charging is supported by both batteries, enabling users to charge from 0% to 80% in about 60 minutes, guaranteeing urban riders the least amount of downtime and the most convenience.
