Hero Vida V2 Powertrain, Battery Pack
The newest V2 Lite model is the most budget-friendly choice. It includes a compact 2.2kWh battery that can take you up to 94km on a full charge. With a top speed of 69kph, it’s a bit slower than the Plus and Pro models, which can reach 85kph and 90kph. Though it only offers two riding modes – Ride and Eco, the rest of its features closely resemble those of the other models.
The differences between the V2 Plus and V2 Pro might be a bit tricky to spot. Essentially, these versions closely resemble the V1 models, if not identical. The V2 Plus features a 3.44kWh battery pack, can reach speeds up to 85kph, and boasts a claimed IDC range of 143km. At the top of the Vida V2 series is the V2 Pro, equipped with a 3.94kWh battery, a top speed of 90kph, and a claimed IDC range of 165km.
Charging the batteries from 0 to 80 percent takes different times depending on the battery size. The 2.2 kWh battery needs about 3 hours and 30 minutes to charge, the 3.44 kWh one takes 5 hours and 15 minutes, and the 3.94 kWh option requires 5 hours and 55 minutes. Additionally, each battery comes with a 3-year or 30,000 km warranty for your peace of mind.
