Hero Vida V1 single seater coupe accessory will be showcased at the Bharat Mobility Global Expo 2024 in New Delhi
Hero MotoCorp introduced the V1 Pro, the first electric scooter under the EV-only brand Vida, in late 2022. The scooter was also showcased at the 2023 EICMA show in Milan, Italy a few months ago as part of the brand venturing into new markets including Europe and the United Kingdom. In recent times, Hero has expanded the reach of the Vida V1 resulting in increased sales numbers.
The largest two-wheeler manufacturer in the country will bring in as many as three new scooters within a year or two. The Vida V1 Pro has been well received for its flexibility as it uses a 3.94 kWh battery pack as standard and dual batteries that are removable having a 1.97 kWh capacity each. The Vida V1 Pro will be displayed in multiple configurations at the Bharat Mobility Expo 2024.
The motoring exhibition will commence tomorrow and will run until February 3, 2024. The show floor will witness the debut of the single-seater coupe accessory iteration of the Vida V1 Pro. The rear black cowl is a removable one and underneath it should exist a decent storage space and split black grab rails are also visible.
Another prototype with a single seat and a flat rear bed can also be seen in the images with cosmetic enhancements. We do not expect any changes to the mechanical and electric drivetrain departments in the different seating/utility versions. The Hero Vida V1 Pro is claimed to accelerate from zero to 40 kmph in just 3.2 seconds and has a top speed of 80 kmph.
The Vida V1 Pro boasts a claimed riding range of 110 km on a single charge and is packed with features. It has a vehicle warranty of five years or 50,000 km and a battery warranty of three years or 30,000 km. While the electric motor is IP68 rated, the battery pack is IP67 rated. The V1 Pro is a Guinness World Record for the longest distance covered by an electric scooter in 24 hours.
The equipment list comprises a seven-inch TFT touchscreen display with OTA updates, two-way throttle control, cruise control, boost mode, keyless entry, anti-theft alarm, geofencing for location monitoring, turn-by-turn navigation and follow-me-home lights while supporting vehicle diagnostics and remote immobilisation.
