Bajaj Chetak electric scooter review

Bajaj Chetak electric scooter looks and feels premium with its stylish and contemporary design. The EV also boasts of a powerful motor that delivers a top speed of 70Kmph, which is not too impressive but, and impressive acceleration. The scooter also comes with three different driving modes to handle it in multiple conditions. The smart app connectivity is an added benefit, but the range on the Bajaj Chetak electric scooter is on the lower side. The two-wheeler isn’t meant for a long daily commute. Additionally, the Chetak is an electric proposition when compared to the Ola S1 Pro, Ather 450x, and TVS iQube.

Pros

• Iconic design
• Powerful motor
• Smart features

Cons

• Expensive proposition
• Range could have been better
