The Bajaj Chetak electric scooter, which is making waves in the country’s electric scooter market these days, is now ready to come in a new avatar. This scooter, which is already known for its retro style and strong performance, is now going to be even more practical and affordable. According to reports, Bajaj is going to launch the next generation Chetak EV on December 20, which will have more boot space than the current model and perhaps even at a lower price. So let’s know what will be special in this new Chetak!
Big boot space: Now it will be easier to carry more luggage
The biggest upgrade of the new Bajaj Chetak will be its boot space. Boot space has become an important issue in electric scooters these days. Competitors like Ather Rizza, Ola S1 and TVS iQube are offering good boot space in their e-scooters, and Bajaj also does not want to be left behind in this race. Therefore, the company has designed a new chassis for the Chetak, in which the battery pack has been shifted below the floorboard. This will significantly increase the boot space, so that you can easily carry everyday items. This change will make Chetak even more useful and practical.
Affordable price: Electric scooter within everyone’s reach
According to reports, the new Bajaj Chetak may be launched at a lower price than the current model. Its ex-showroom price could be around Rs 1 lakh, which would make it even more attractive. If this happens, this scooter will be a great option for those who want to buy a good electric scooter on a low budget. With its affordable price and great features, the new Chetak can give tough competition in the market.
Powerful performance and long range: Mileage without compromise
The change in the new battery pack design will not only increase the boot space, but can also affect its performance. It is expected that the new Chetak will get a longer range. The current model gives a range of 123 km to 137 km according to IDC (Indian Driving Cycle). This range is likely to be even higher in the new model, so that you will be able to travel long distances without any worry. Bajaj Chetak has always been known for its strong performance, and this will remain in the new model as well.
Will there be newness in the design as well?
According to reports, the new Chetak’s design will be similar to the current model, but with some minor changes. People have always liked Bajaj Chetak’s retro style, and the company will probably add some new elements while retaining this style.
Success story of Bajaj Chetak: Sales of more than 3 lakh units
Bajaj Chetak has made a distinct identity in the electric scooter market in a very short time. The company has recently crossed the sales mark of 3 lakh units. Since its launch in January 2020, the Chetak has sold a total of 3,03,621 units till October 2024 as per SIAM (Society of Indian Automobile Manufacturers) wholesale data. The Bajaj Chetak electric scooter has recorded the highest monthly shipment in October 2024. It has taken almost 5 years for the Bajaj Chetak to reach this milestone. After crossing the 2 lakh unit mark in June 2024, the Bajaj Chetak has achieved the last 1 lakh unit sales in just four months, which is a proof of its popularity.
New Bajaj Chetak: Is it for you?
If you are looking for a stylish, practical, and affordable electric scooter, the new Bajaj Chetak is a great option. Its large boot space, potentially low price, and strong performance make it even more attractive. This is especially true if you want a scooter for daily use in the city.
Competitors of Bajaj Chetak: Tough competition in the market
The new Bajaj Chetak will give tough competition to scooters like Ather Rizza, Ola S1, TVS iQube and Hero Vida V1 in the market. All these scooters have their own special features, and now with the new avatar of Bajaj Chetak, the competition will be even more interesting.
