Hero Vida Ubex electric motorcycle concept to debut at EICMA 2025

Hero’s EV subsidiary, Vida, will be a part of EICMA 2025 that’s scheduled to take place in the first week of November. In a now-deleted Instagram post, Vida revealed that aside from its existing line-up of products and prototypes we’ve seen before, it will also showcase a new electric motorcycle concept called the Ubex.

Vida Ubex Concept: What to expect

The Vida Ubex could be the manufacturer’s first electric motorcycle for our market.

The image shared on Instagram features only the silhouette of a motorcycle, offering limited information on what to expect. What we can establish though is that the Ubex concept is a street-naked motorcycle and features a USD fork, monoshock, disc brakes at both ends, and alloy wheels. The image also confirms that the bike will feature a mid-drive motor with the battery housing where a conventional engine would typically be.

Performance specifications and powertrain details remain unknown at this stage. However, we previously reported that the automaker is working with Zero Motorcycles on a number of products in the 350cc and above equivalent segments that will launch in 2026-27. Whether this concept is one of those motorcycles is yet to be seen.

The name ‘Ubex’ could be a play on ‘Urbex’, short for urban exploration, possibly hinting at the motorcycle’s city-focused intentions.

At the moment, several manufacturers are working on adding electric motorcycles to their line-up. The Royal Enfield Flying Flea C6 appears to be in its final stages of development with an early 2026 launch expected, while Ather Energy, in which Hero MotoCorp holds a significant stake, is developing a new platform called Zenith to underpin electric two-wheelers targeting the 125-300cc segments.

It’s quite possible that the Vida Ubex will offer specifications and performance that place it in a similar category. We’ll have more details when the concept is unveiled at EICMA next week.
