Bajaj launches two websites for the 'Qute' quadricycle

Last year, Bajaj unveiled the RE60 quadricycle as the 'Qute'. The road ready model was revealed and Bajaj plans to export it to around 16 markets including Tanzania, the Dominican Republic, Turkey, Sri Lanka, Cambodia, Egypt, Honduras, Thailand and Bangladesh among others. 

However, the Qute is yet to clear the red tape and get the Supreme Court of India's approval for domestic sales. Bajaj has now launched two websites for the Qute, in order to spread awareness for the product, while also starting the #FreeTheQute campaign, where visitors can register and show their support for the quadricycle if they wish to.

Given below are links to the websites:

- Bajaj Qute

- FreeTheQute

The Qute is powered by a 217 cc, 4-valve, liquid cooled, closed loop fuel injected, four-stroke engine that makes just over 13 BHP @ 5,500 rpm and 19.6 Nm of torque @ 4,000 rpm. The vehicle gets a 5-speed manual gearbox and a top speed of 70 km/h. The vehicle measures 2,752 mm in length, 1,312 mm in width, 1,650 mm in height with a 1,925 mm wheelbase.

The Qute is being projected as a greener and more cost effective alternative to cars and a safer alternative to three-wheelers. Bajaj claims the Qute emits 66 gm of CO2 per km and offers a fuel economy of 36 km/l. While Bajaj has put across a lot of points to plead its case for the quadricycle, it remains to be seen when the vehicle can legally hit Indian roads.
