The VXZ Concept is Vida’s first take on an electric motorcycle. Unveiled at EICMA 2025, it will be co-developed with Zero Motorcycles. Now, its design patent has been registered, revealing a few key design elements that might make their way into the final production bike.
The VXZ concept is a street-naked motorcycle and features a USD fork, monoshock, a radial disc brake at the front, a disc at the rear, 5-spoke alloy wheels and a tail section similar to the Xtreme 250R with the number plate and indicators mounted on the tyre-hugger. The patent image also confirms that the bike will feature 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-equivalent and above segments that will launch in 2026-27.
Alongside this patent, Vida has also patented the headlight of the VXZ. It gets the Vida ‘V’ motif with a mono-projector in the centre. This design was teased earlier with the VXZ as well. Currently, we do not know when the VXZ will go on sale; however, with the recent developments, it's safe to say that Vida is actively working on it.
