New Bajaj Chetak launched in India at Rs 1.20 lakh

The new Bajaj Chetak has been launched in India, available in three variants: 3501, 3502, and 3503, with prices starting from Rs 1.20 lakh for the mid-spec 3502 and Rs 1.27 lakh for the top-spec 3501.

This is an all-new scooter, featuring a new frame, battery, motor and controller. The styling looks like an evolution of the old Bajaj Chetak, save for the sleeker turn indicators, blacked out headlight surround and slimmer LED tail light. Bajaj has also extended the wheelbase and that has led to a roomier floorbard area and an 80mm longer seat.

Key Features:

  1. New Frame and Battery: Accommodates a 3.5kW battery pack, providing a range of 153km on a full charge.¹
  2. Enhanced Comfort: Features an 80mm longer seat and roomier floorboard area.
  3. Smart Features: Includes a touchscreen TFT display with smartphone connectivity, music control, integrated maps, geo-fencing, and more.
  4. Improved Performance: Powered by a 4kW permanent magnet motor, reaching a top speed of 73kmph.

Variant-Specific Features:

  1. Chetak 3501 (Top-Spec): Touchscreen TFT display, closed glove box, and front disc brake.
  2. Chetak 3502 (Mid-Spec): 5-inch non-touchscreen TFT display, open storage cavity, and front disc brake.
  3. Chetak 3503 (Base Variant): Drum brakes at both ends, with price to be announced later.

Additional Details:

  1. Charging Time: 3 hours to charge from 0-80% using the 950W onboard charger.
  2. Boot Space: 35 liters, liberated by moving the battery to the floorboard area.
  3. Brakes: Front disc and rear drum brake (3501 and 3502), or drum brakes at both ends (3503).
