The VX2 Plus KKR Edition sports the team’s signature night purple and gold colors, but in a subtle and well-integrated way. It gets a pearl black base, layered with a golden halftone gradient and intricate micro-dotted patterns on the body panels. There are also three different accent marks, representing KKR’s three IPL wins. VIDA has also introduced a matching limited-edition KKR helmet with the scooter. Although the company has not announced the price yet, it has confirmed that the VX2 Plus KKR Limited Edition will be available through select VIDA dealerships.
Apart from the styling, the scooter remains mechanically unchanged. The VX2 Plus is powered by a 3.4 kWh removable battery pack, paired with a 6 kW motor. It offers an IDC-certified range of 142 km on a single charge and can reach a top speed of 80 kmph. The speed from 0 to 40 kmph is reached in 3.1 seconds.Charging flexibility is another important aspect. The removable battery setup allows users to charge it at home, while fast charging can charge the battery from 0 to 80 percent in about 60 to 62 minutes. It takes approximately 4 hours 13 minutes for a full charge using a standard AC charger.In terms of features, the VX2 Plus comes equipped with a 4.3-inch TFT display that supports connected technology. This includes turn-by-turn navigation, live vehicle tracking, geo-fencing, real-time ride data, and alerts for calls and messages. There are also SOS alerts and music controls, with additional features accessible through VIDA’s optional Edge pack.
