Next-gen Bajaj Chetak electric scooter to be launched on December 20

New Bajaj Chetak: What To Expect?

The Bajaj Chetak has been largely the same visually since it first arrived in 2020, although the company made extensive upgrades to its feature list earlier this year incorporating a new screen, more connectivity options, and better hardware. The next generation version is expected to improve on each of these parameters, while further improving the practicality quotient.

The current Chetak offers about 21 litres of under-seat storage, which is one of the lowest in the segment. While details are scarce, the next-gen Bajaj Chetak is expected to be mounted on a newly developed chassis that will bring notable improvements and bigger under-seat storage is likely to be on offer. The two-wheeler maker is expected to move the battery under the floorboard, similar to the Ather Rizta and TVS iQube.

Expect Improvements

This should also make way for a redesigned battery pack, which could offer more range while packing a similar capacity to the existing options available. The current Bajaj Chetak offers between 123 km and 137 km, depending on the variant.

The Bajaj Chetak has found acceptance with the masses with its no-nonsense approach and good looks. The e-scooter has aged rather well and continues to look fresh and vibrant despite newer rivals coming in the last few years. Prices for the new-gen Bajaj Chetak will see a marginal revision over the current model. The e-scooter is presently priced between ₹96,000 and ₹1.29 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi).
