For the prices of the VX2 Go 2.2kWh and VX2 Plus via the BaaS scheme, here’s the pricing explainer.
The new variant gets a dual-removable 3.4kWh battery pack, claimed to offer a real world range of over 100km. Other than the addition of the larger battery pack, the variant remains the same in performance and features. Interestingly, this battery pack is also used in the Vida VX2 Plus, but in that e-scooter, the claimed tested range stands at 142km.
Powering the scooter is the same 6kW motor which offers a top-speed of 70kmph. The Go variant only has two riding modes: Eco and Ride. This variant gets a 4.3-inch TFT console with smartphone connectivity and related features such as call/SMS alerts and turn-by-turn navigation. The scooter also gets a spacious 27.2 litre underseat storage enough to handle your grocery runs.
With the launch of this variant, Hero has managed to bridge the gap between the base Go and the top-spec Plus variant. Offering the same e-scooter via BaaS also makes it even more affordable. However, do note that you’ll have to pay for the battery every month for a few years, depending on the chosen BaaS scheme.

Bahot hi shandaar scooter hai bus charging me 5 ghante ke approx lagte hai baaki saari chize thik hai. Sabse badiya lagta hai iska swappal battery wala system ki kahi bhi jao battery nikalo and normally charge kar lo. Me khud iski battery office me charge kar leta hu, agar aap ko bhi ye daily commute ke liye chayie to le sakte ho. Rides me maja bahut aata hai bus built quality pe thoda aur dhyan diya ja sakta tha wese frame wagera badiya laga rakhe ha body ki protection ke liye. Design bhi badia lagta hai, light weight bhi hai, easily control ho jati hai high 50 speed me bhi Overall experience badiya hai abhi tak ka 3 mahine ho gye liye hue, aap bhi le sakte ho agar apko bhi office, college ya daily commute ke liye chaiye to. Bakki electric scooter ki tarah alag se charing ka set up nhi karna padta.Read More

I was highly attracted by the price, As I have seen numerous service issues with other companies. I didn't want to take a risk of paying high and suffering loss. Colour and design are appealing to me. Regarding the riding experience, It is very comfort even the back seat guy is feeling excellent comfort. The scooter has 3 difference ride modes. I used to ride 50 km per day in city and remote areas. This scooter is made for middle class people who has a minimum of 40 km day riding requirement. Best for everyone. No software issues, no break down issue. Removable battery, you can charge from your office. Read More
