The
new Chetak will not have a Bajaj badge. The Bajaj Chetak electric scooter looks
robust and stands tall on 12-inch cast alloy wheels, and with an all-metal body
with a neo-retro design. Bajaj says the bodywork has been completely developed
in-house, but the silhouette does resemble the Vespa Elettrica and the Vespa
GTS 300 in many ways.

The new Bajaj Chetak gets a LED headlight, with a strip
of LED daytime running light, a round, retro-styled digital instrument cluster,
as well as nicely finished "feather touch" switches, along with
scrolling LED blinkers. There will be a mobile app to assist the rider.
The
Chetak will use a 4kW electric motor and while exact battery specs have not
been revealed so far, the e-scooter will use an IP67-rated lithium-ion battery
pack. The battery is not removable. Bajaj Auto has also said that it will
provide a home-charging station at a nominal cost. It has two riding modes Eco
and Sport. The main feature is it will have a reverse assist. Range is quoted
at 85km and 95km in Sport and Eco modes, respectively.
