India's largest two-wheeler maker, Hero MotoCorp, has revealed it will launch its first electric motorcycles under the Vida brand in 2027: the mainstream Vida Ubex and the off-road-oriented Vida Lynx, both targeting the 150-250cc equivalent segment. Battery capacity, range, and other specs have not yet been disclosed. The company is also developing a mass-market electric scooter, the Splendor EV, and plans to double production capacity at its Sri City plant from 33,000 to 66,000 units by 2027.

Looking at the data, targeting the 150-250cc equivalent segment is a rational call, since that's where India's commuter demand runs thickest. It's a bit concerning that battery capacity and range aren't disclosed yet, but setting emotion aside, doubling production capacity says more about how serious this commitment is.

What's the difference between the Ubex and the Lynx?

Sounds like one's for road use and the other's off-road.

The Splendor name coming back as an EV hits different.

Announcing before specs are even set feels premature.

The doubled production plan is the real signal of intent though.

Feels like Hero is finally getting serious about this.
