Re: Hero Motocorp's upcoming electric scooter teased

Then Ola now Vida -2W EV enthusiasts in Kerala are having some fascinating choices to pick.

In Malayalam , Ola means coconut leaf and Vida is adios.

Re: Hero Motocorp's upcoming electric scooter teased

This is called timing.

Yesterday Hero MotoCorp shares tanked by 5 percent due to low sales in Feb 2022. Today they launch a new EV Brand VIDA to create buzz in market. VIDA to launch first vehicle on July 1 2022 and will start deliveries by end of 2022 or Jan 2023.

Re: Hero MotoCorp launches Vida brand for EVs

Talk about a creative way to skirt around the family agreement prohibiting you from using the Hero name on electric two wheelers. This single announcement must have given sleepless nights to the Naveen Munjal family.

Re: Hero MotoCorp launches Vida brand for EVs

Musings of a Spanish name in India.
"Vida", as we all know in Hindi as "Leaving/Going Off", like a negative word. Will it reverberate well with common folks, I doubt.

That seems to be the problem. They have given away the brand to another branch of the family long back when EVs were thought of as mere fancy. Now that brand's sales are increasing steadily. But there is no way of taking it back! Customers are not aware the brand is not connected to Hero Motocorp, and buy the products out of their trust in the latter!

Re: Hero MotoCorp launches Vida brand for EVs

Seeing the silhouette of the scooter in the above post I guess it is Hero Moto Corp's partner Gogoro's S1 electric scooter. This electric scooter looks a size small in pictures or may be this silhouette is for advertising purpose since Gogoro has few other larger electric scooter models in its line up. But no doubt Gogoro has already established itself as the global leader in electric two wheeler battery swapping technology and is already partnering several other electric two wheeler companies including Yamaha and global leader Yadea in other Asian markets.
Just saw Ola announcing 10K discount in the Ola thread, looks like the competition has already started to face heat from Vida.
