Future Vegeta is the alternate timeline counterpart of Vegeta who appeared in the alternate timeline in which Future Trunks, and Future Son Gohan lived.
This Vegeta appears in the opening scene of Dragon Ball Z TV Special 2, and in a flashback during an episode of Dragon Ball Z. Future Vegeta was the lover of Future Bulma, and was also the father of Future Trunks.
Background
Future Vegeta's life was exactly the same way as his mainstream timeline counterpart's life up until the events on August 12th of Age 764 when Future Son Goku had used the Instant Transmission technique to arrive back on planet Earth and successfully kills both Future Frieza and Future King Cold. Sometime afterwards, Vegeta trained and became a Super Saiyan.
He also has a son with Bulma soon after becoming a Super Saiyan. Two years later on however in Age 766, Future Goku had been stricken down by a deadly Heart Virus that basically had no cure at the time. Future Vegeta, along with all the other Z Fighters and company silently await the news of Future Goku's health outside of the house. However Future Goku passes away, leaving Future Vegeta shocked about Future Goku's death, and he finds himself very upset due to the fact that he will never get his one chance to defeat his main rival in battle.
Six months later on May 12th, Age 767 the two Androids attack, and Future Vegeta is the second Z Fighter to be killed by them. In the TV special, Vegeta is shown receiving a hard kick to the stomach by Future Android 17, and in the DBZ episode "Ghosts from Tomorrow", it is shown during a flashback that he dies after being struck down by 17's Photon Flash while stuck in the ground after receiving a brutal attack. In both instances, he retains his Super Saiyan power and abilities. Future Vegeta was 35 years old when he was killed by the Androids.
Due to his tragic death this is what made Future Trunks only heard stories about Vegeta from Bulma and Gohan as Trunks was only a baby when this all happen.
Personality
He acts exactly just like his present day timeline counterpart as pointed out by Future Gohan. However he also might had become more antisocial after Future Goku's death. As he isn't seen spending time with Bulma and Trunks when his son was just a baby.
Appearance
He looks exactly just like his present day timeline counterpart.
Abilities
Future Vegeta might or was at the same power level as his present day timeline counterpart up until Mecha Frieza's arrival on Earth. Afterwards, due to being unaware of the impending threat of the androids, he did not train in preparation. This lack of foreknowledge proved to be his downfall, as despite still learning Super Saiyan, he was easily taken out by a heavy blow from Future 17, followed by a Photon Flash. Because his life is cut short, Future Vegeta never masters the basic Super Saiyan form and is unable to ascend past its limits.
The Great Ape
Future Vegeta took this form during his battle with Future Goku, as noted by Cell in his retelling of how he obtained Vegeta's cells.
Super Saiyan
Like his alternate counterpart, sometime after the battle with Future King Cold and Future Frieza, Future Vegeta manages to transform into a Super Saiyan after undergoing various training.
Super Saiyan 4
While not shown on screen, Future Vegeta attained this form at some point while in the Other World according to one of the scenarios in Dragon Ball Z: Budokai Tenkaichi. Future Vegeta used the form to fuse with Future Goku and form Super Saiyan 4 Gogeta.
Gogeta
Future Vegeta fuses with Future Goku to form Super Saiyan 4 Gogeta and face Future Trunks during his and Vegeta's one day on planet Earth in one of the scenarios in Budokai Tenkaichi.
Dragon Ball Super
Despite not appearing in this series, his spirit was destroyed when Future Zen-Oh wiped out all existence to end Fusion Zamasu's reign of terror. His spirit still continues to exist in the new timeline that Whis created, but cannot be revived because the Earth's Dragon Balls are still inert due to Future Piccolo's death.
However, it is possible for Future Trunks to revive his fallen friends with the Super Dragon Balls, but he never does so, because both Future Trunks and his mother never knew of the existence of those Dragon Balls, so she never invented a new Dragon Radar. Alternatively if New Namek and the Namekians still exist in the new timeline created by Whis, then they could use the Namekian Dragon Balls which the Future Namekians would surely allow. Another possibility is they could have Future Dende restore the Earth's Dragon Balls like in the main present timeline, however both of these scenarios would require Future Bulma and Future Trunks to travel to New Namek.
In a flashback in the "Bonus Story" bonus chapter of the Dragon Ball Super manga, Future Vegeta is shown fighting the Androids alongside his allies.
