Key facts

Story
  • Hero MotoCorp's VIDA unveiled the UBX concept at EICMA 2026 in Milan.
  • The UBX is the brand's first electric motorcycle, moving beyond its scooter range.
  • VIDA has not confirmed production plans, pricing, range or an India launch.

Hero MotoCorp's electric mobility brand, VIDA, has shown a new concept called the UBX at the EICMA 2026 motorcycle show in Milan. It is the brand's first electric motorcycle, and it takes VIDA beyond the electric scooters it sells today. The details in this article come from the company's own announcement and from early coverage of the reveal.

The UBX has a neo-naked look with styling taken from supermoto bikes. The front has a small LED headlamp, and the bike pairs a handlebar fitted with hand guards with upside-down forks. Its seat is a single unit, it rolls on wheels with a two-tone alloy finish, and a TFT instrument display sits at the centre of the bike. The layout is a motorcycle format, not the scooter body used on VIDA's current electric models.

What is still missing

VIDA has not shared the chassis design, wheel sizes, suspension travel or braking hardware. The weight of the bike is also unknown. There is no word yet on battery capacity, motor power, torque or a claimed range. Charging time, top speed and acceleration figures have not been released either.

These numbers matter to buyers. Range, performance and charging time are usually the first things people compare when choosing an electric motorcycle.

Background and next steps

The UBX builds on an earlier UBEX concept from the brand. Hero's VIDA has so far sold electric scooters, so a motorcycle would be a new category for the company. For now the UBX remains a concept.

The company has not yet said when the UBX will reach production, what it will cost, or whether it will launch in India. Until the company releases those details, buyers in India have no price or date to plan around.
