Bajaj Chetak Electric Scooter India-Launch Date Confirmed: Here Are All The Details

The Bajaj Chetak electric scooter will be launched in a phase-wise manner. It will initially be available in just five cities, before expanding across other parts of the country. These five cities include Bangalore, Pune, Mumbai, Delhi and Chennai.

According to the company, bookings for the all-electric Bajaj Chetak will begin in the coming days. Deliveries of the scooter will initially start in Pune and Bangalore only; before being made available in the remaining three cities mentioned above. Bajaj had also confirmed previously that the Chetak electric scooter will be available exclusively across all KTM dealerships.

The company unveiled the electric Chetak in the Indian market, during the latter part of 2019. The Bajaj Chetak electric is expected to be priced in the range of Rs 1.10 lakh, on-road. This will put it in direct contention with the likes of the Ather 450 in the EV segment — as well as the recently announced Ather 450X.

In terms of specifications, the Bajaj is yet to announce the exact details of the battery packs and electric motor used on the Chetak electric. However, they did announce that the electric scooter will come with an IP-67 certified lithium-ion battery, offering a max range of around 75km on a single charge.

In terms of styling, the Bajaj Chetak electric will feature a retro-theme combined with modern features and equipment. This includes LED lighting for the headlamps and taillights, digital instrument cluster, feather-touch activated switches, LED DRLs, chrome surrounds for the headlamps and a host of premium finishes as well.
