Vida, powered by Hero, the electric vehicle business of the world’s largest two-wheeler manufacturer, has introduced a brand-new identity, four years after its 2022 launch. The company has transitioned from a single electric scooter to a mobility ecosystem including the DIRT.E range and the Novus platform.

The identity features a V-Lettermark derived from the Hero logo, tilted at a 30-degree trajectory. The design uses black, white and orange. The company also secured a spot in the Asia Book of Records for creating a brand logo covering 35,292 sqft, using a range of vehicles including the Vida VX2, Vida DIRT.E K3, Novus Nex 1 and Hero XPulse.

Dr. Pawan Munjal, Executive Chairman, Hero MotoCorp, said, "True progress never stands still; it anchors itself in the deep roots of a trusted legacy to branch out into bold, new directions. When I launched Vida in 2022, I called it the dawn of something special, meaning ‘Life’, was created to drive a positive impact and move us all forward meaningfully. Four years on, that purpose grew into a movement - a purpose to build a better world.”

Kausalya Nandakumar, Chief Business Officer, Emerging Mobility Business Unit, Hero MotoCorp, said, "Today’s customer is buying an upgrade to their life, and they expect it to be effortless, reliable and within reach. Our new identity is built for that customer, and for the breadth of what Vida now offers. The V-Letter mark captures it best: Hero's legacy and Vida's future, moving forward together. Hero gives our aspiration scale; Vida gives that scale desirability. Together, we are making aspirations accessible."

The identity will be implemented across Vida’s digital and physical touchpoints and future product lines.
