VIDA DIRT.E K3 6DAYS edition unveiled in 100-unit run; India price pending

VIDA, Hero MotoCorp’s electric mobility brand, has unveiled the DIRT.E K3 6DAYS Limited Edition at the 100th FIM International Six Days Enduro in Grândola, Portugal. The special electric off-roader is limited to 100 units, but the announcement does not give an India price or confirm India-specific market availability.

For Indian EV readers, the important distinction is that this is a fresh limited-edition unveiling, not a confirmed road-going launch in India. The model is aimed at young riders and is designed for off-road use, so buyers should wait for VIDA to publish local pricing, sales channels and usage details before treating it as an India purchase option.

Key takeaways

  • VIDA unveiled the DIRT.E K3 6DAYS Limited Edition on 15 Oct 2026 at the FIM event in Portugal.
  • Production is capped at 100 units, with 6DAYS branding and green-red styling inspired by host country Portugal.
  • The youth electric off-roader has adjustable ergonomics, three riding modes and app-based controls.
  • Its removable 360 Wh battery is claimed to charge from 0 to 100% in about three hours.
  • India pricing and market-specific availability have not been announced.

What has been unveiled

The FIM’s event announcement says the 6DAYS edition is based on VIDA’s DIRT.E K3, a size-adaptive electric off-roader for young riders. The limited version adds official 6DAYS branding, Portuguese-inspired green and red accents and competition-style graphics. HT Auto’s independent report also describes the changes as primarily cosmetic, which means the announcement is about a themed, tightly limited version rather than a new powertrain.

The 100-unit ceiling matters because it separates this edition from a mass-market electric two-wheeler. Neither source gives an India allocation, booking route or delivery date. The FIM says the vehicles will be available on the market, but that statement does not establish an India launch or India retail price.

Features and battery details

According to the FIM and HT Auto, the DIRT.E K3 is built to adjust as the rider grows. Its handlebar height, footrest position and seat height can be changed without special tools. That gives the bike a different use case from a fixed-size commuter: the fit and riding position can be altered for different stages of a young rider’s physical development.

The bike offers three riding modes. Mode 1 is limited to 9 km/h, Mode 2 is rated at 17–18 km/h and Mode 3 reaches 24 km/h. A connected app can monitor use, set speed limits and manage ride modes. Safety equipment listed in the announcement includes a magnetic kill switch that cuts power if the rider separates from the bike and a 60 mm rear disc brake.

Power comes from a removable 360 Wh lithium-ion battery. A full charge is stated to take about three hours. The removable format may make home charging easier where a suitable socket is available, but the announcement does not provide a claimed range, charging-cost figure or public-charging requirement. Buyers comparing full-size road EVs can use our state-wise EV charging directory to understand the wider charging landscape; that directory should not be read as confirmation that this youth off-roader is supported at public stations.

What it means for Indian readers

VIDA’s collaboration with the FIM gives an Indian electric brand visibility in an international off-road setting. It also shows how Hero MotoCorp is using the VIDA name beyond urban scooters, with a small electric product aimed at introducing younger riders to controlled off-road riding. The FIM says the DIRT.E K3 has also received a Red Dot Design Award in 2025 and recognition at the CES 2026 Innovation Awards.

However, the useful buying information for India is still missing. There is no confirmed rupee price, India booking window, dealer list, delivery schedule or market-specific availability in the two reports. The event’s Portugal location and limited 100-unit production run also mean that an Indian buyer should not assume the edition will be sold locally. Any India launch claim would need a later VIDA or Hero MotoCorp announcement.

What to check if an India version is announced

Readers should look for four details in any future India update: whether the 6DAYS edition is offered here or only in selected overseas markets; the final price and taxes; the warranty and replacement-battery terms; and the permitted riding environment. The product is presented as a youth off-roader, so the availability of public-road use, registration or insurance would need to be confirmed from the applicable official documents rather than inferred from the international unveiling.

The battery specification also needs context. A 360 Wh pack describes stored energy, not how far the bike will travel in real use. Rider weight, terrain, riding mode, temperature and tyre conditions can change consumption. Since neither source publishes a range figure, a range claim should not be added to a purchase comparison yet.

Running-cost comparison

This is not a like-for-like alternative to a petrol commuter for routine road travel. If a household is comparing an electric recreational bike with a petrol two-wheeler used for regular trips, current fuel prices and the expected distance should be checked separately. Our live fuel-price pages provide the price input, while the fuel-cost calculator can estimate trip fuel use once distance and mileage are known. Electricity cost for the DIRT.E K3 would still depend on the local tariff and actual charging losses, neither of which has been supplied in the announcement.

Reader takeaway

The VIDA DIRT.E K3 6DAYS Limited Edition is a verified 100-unit electric off-road showcase from an Indian EV brand, with adjustable ergonomics, a removable battery and child-focused safety controls. For India, the story is one to watch rather than a confirmed retail buying opportunity: price, availability and local usage details remain open.
