Bajaj is turning heads in the EV market once again with its upcoming Bajaj Chetak EV, now expected to launch with a claimed range of 550 km on a single charge – a figure that’s hard to ignore, especially at an expected starting price of just ₹1.15 lakh (ex-showroom).
Classic Design with a Modern Twist
The new Chetak continues to reflect its vintage charm with a smooth, curvy design that reminds many of the original scooter from the past. Bajaj has kept things clean and elegant, with all-LED lighting, chrome detailing, and a metal body for a premium touch. The updated model also gets a new colour palette, including matte and dual-tone finishes to attract younger urban riders.
Feature-Packed for Everyday Use
Bajaj has loaded the Chetak with useful features like a fully-digital instrument cluster, connected tech with smartphone app support, keyless start, and USB charging port. The scooter will also come with reverse assist, which is a great help in tight parking spots. There’s a small under-seat storage compartment and a front glove box for carrying essentials.
550 KM Range with Fast Charging
What really makes the new Bajaj Chetak EV stand out is the claimed 550 km range – likely achieved using swappable dual battery packs or a high-capacity lithium-ion unit. While exact charging times haven’t been confirmed, Bajaj says the scooter will support fast charging, making it practical even for daily long commutes.
Smooth, Silent, and City-Ready
There’s no traditional engine here – instead, the Chetak runs on an advanced electric motor, offering instant torque and smooth throttle response. It’s designed for city traffic, with a top speed likely around 70-80 km/h, and the riding experience is expected to be both quiet and comfortable.
Final Verdict
With its retro-inspired looks, modern tech, and a massive 550 km range, the 2025 Bajaj Chetak EV could be a game-changer for electric scooters in India. It suits both city riders and those who travel longer distances daily.
Launch & Pricing Details
The new Chetak is likely to launch by the end of 2025, with an attractive price starting at ₹1.15 lakh. At this price, it offers tremendous value, especially for those looking to switch to electric without compromising on design, features, or range.
