Indian summers can be intense—hot, dry, and sometimes a little too much for the riders on the road. VIDA Electric Scooters are designed to perform reliably no matter the weather, but following proper electric scooter summer care practices can help keep your ride in top condition even in peak summers.

Here's how you can maintain your VIDA Electric Scooter in summer conditions and care for yourself.

Scooter Health Tips

Wait before charging after a long ride
After an exciting ride, give your scooter a little time to cool down before charging. This helps the battery perform efficiently and stay healthy in the long run.

Park your VIDA in the shade and use the original cover
Whenever possible, find a shaded spot to park your scooter. Using the original VIDA body cover adds an extra layer of protection against heat and dust, keeping your scooter cool and clean.

Avoid overcharging the battery
VIDA’s intelligent battery management is designed to keep your battery healthy, but it’s best to avoid leaving your scooter charging for extended periods once it is 100% charged.

Maintain optimum tyre pressure
Summer heat can warm up your tyres, so make sure they’re inflated just right. Proper tyre pressure means smoother handling and a more comfortable ride. Moreover, check the manual for the tyre pressure guide. This can help make your VIDA Electric Scooter summer care routine easier.

Clean off dust regularly
Summer roads can be dusty. Gently clean your scooter with the microfibre cloth to keep it looking fresh and to prevent dust buildup around the batteries—an important aspect of electric scooter summer maintenance.

Schedule regular check-ups
Visiting your nearest VIDA authorised service centre for routine care keeps your scooter running at its best and ready for every adventure.

Rider Health Tips

Wear a well-ventilated helmet
A helmet with good airflow keeps you cool and comfortable. Consider VIDA’s half-face helmet, designed to give you proper ventilation during those sunny rides.

Wear sun protection gear
Light, breathable clothing paired with sunglasses and gloves offers sun protection while keeping you comfortable on the move.

Take breaks in the shade whenever possible
Whether you stop at a traffic signal or by a street vendor, try to find a shady spot under a tree or a building to keep yourself away from direct sunlight.

Stay hydrated
The last thing you want on a summer ride is getting dehydrated. Carry water with you and drink regularly to stay refreshed throughout your journey.

With these simple, smart summer care tips, you can have a confident ride on your VIDA EV throughout the season.
