New Hero Street Fighter Bike Spied Testing – Electric Vida UBX?
by Akshay Kulkarni · RushLaneHero MotoCorp has been working on expanding their premium motorcycle and scooter business with multiple new launches. However, the company is also busy with expanding their Vida portfolio. Currently, we have the V2 family and then VX2 family of electric scooters. Along with that, we also have Vida Dirt.E K3 electric dirt bike for kids.
Now, Hero wants to get into the mainstream electric motorcycle segment and the company has showcased VXZ Concept (Vida X Zero) and then the Ubex Concept. The latter seems to have commenced testing in the country and the latest spy shots of Hero Vida UBX looks like it is production-ready, if not, close to being production-ready.
New Hero Vida UBX Spied
At the 2025 EICMA Show in Milan, Hero MotoCorp showcased the VXZ and UBX concept electric bikes and a year later in 2026 EICMA Show, the company showcased prototypes of these. While the latest spy shots are not clear and leave for some speculations whether it is VXZ or UBX, the wheel design leans towards this being UBX than VXZ.
There were two riders on this motorcycle which masked quite a lot of the motorcycle to match the proportions. Also, making it difficult to pin point it, was the heavy camouflage. Overall aesthetics suggest that it is a Hero Vida electric motorcycle, but the straight wheel spokes nudges it towards being the UBX.
The bike gets sporty street bike appeal and it is likely to appeal to young buyers. At the front, we can see a single LED projector headlight and sleek LED indicators. We can also see the instrument cluster that also doubles up as a faux flyscreen.
What to expect?
Hero Vida UBX prototype was recently revealed at EICMA 2026 and the latest spy shot looks like it gets similar equipment. For starters, the production-spec model is likely to retain USD telescopic front forks and rear mono-shock suspension setup. Also, front and rear disc brakes. Battery pack would be positioned where the engine would normally go.
And on Vida UBX prototype, we can also see some protective bodywork that looks quite nice. Single-piece seat with a rear step, all-LED lighting, mid-mounted electric motor and fancy swingarm could also be retained from the unveiled prototype. There’s also a beak like structure below headlights which could make it to production.
Keyhole might be on the tank area and switchgear could be fancy-type to control the TFT instrument cluster. Prototype had massive rear tyre hugger and chain drive and something similar could be seen on production-spec vehicle too.
