The VLF Strada City gets a 2.16 kWh LFP battery and a claimed IDC range of 130 km, while the Strada Max uses two 2.16 kWh packs for a combined capacity of 4.32 kWh and a claimed range of 250 km.
The VLF Strada City is priced at ₹1,19,999, while the VLF Strada Max costs ₹1,55,500 (both prices mentioned ex-showroom). Powering the electric duo is a 4.8 kW peak-output hub motor and has a claimed top speed of 85 kmph. The batteries on the scooters are removable, which means home charging is possible thereby adding to the convenience factor. A 10 amp charger is provided; charging is claimed to take about three hours for the City and six hours for the Max.
Both variants get a 5-inch TFT display, LED lighting, USB Type-A and Type-C charging ports, and three riding modes: Eco, City and Sport. The modes limit speed to 45 kmph, 65k mph and 85 kmph, respectively. The scooters also feature a reverse mode, front and rear disc brakes with CBS, a front storage pocket, luggage hook and rear carrier rack.
The VLF Strada has a seat height of 780 mm, 175 mm ground clearance and kerb weight of 98 kg. What sets the VLF scooters apart from its rivals is the fact that it rides on a 16/14-inch wheel setup, which is unique. Bookings are open through Motohaus.in for ₹999. Deliveries are scheduled to begin from November onwards. The VLF electric scooters compete against the likes of the Vida VX2, TVS Orbiter and the Ather 450.
