The Bajaj Qute (RE60)

thecoolsundar · 3rd January 2014, 10:36

I think there is definitely a need for this class of vehicle. A need which nano was not able to fill, because they were never able to meet the promised 1 Lakh price

Saw a test mule today - green colored in zebras clothing puttering around in Mangalore near Urva Church.
The exhaust note was the same as any other 4 stroke Bajaj Auto. It was wearing temperory registration of Maharashtra. (MH 12).
Couldnt take any pics as I was going in opposite direction in an Auto and was in tearing hurry to meet my client.

The test mule doing rounds here in Surat is being spotted frequently over the last few months. Spotted it in front of my workplace (Hazira) sometime back when I stepped out for a break:

This 4-lane road connects the city to a lot of industries - Reliance, L&T, ABG, Essar, Shell-Total's LNG Terminal, Adani's port etc. and a lot of people especially the contract workmen commute using CNG based Omnis, rickshaws etc. The RE60 has a tremendous potential here.

Mods,
I noticed a separate thread for RE60 discussion. Kindly merge these photos in that thread. Apologies for the inconvenience.

Spotted the test car yesterday in Pune.

You can see all the testing equipments attached inside.

Posting on behalf of my friend who shared the pictures with me, but could not post it as he is not a forum member - yet!

3 RE-60's in total spotted. This location is in the Dooars region of West Bengal. Seems the vehicles were on a durability/endurance run. Maybe also hill climb as the Dooars are at the foothills of the Eastern Himalayas, and the area is known for its nice, challenging hilly roads.

Saw One on the roads of Pune this weekend. Driver was carrying 3 dummies in the car

Is that the gearshift on the dashboard?

Yes the gearshift is on dashboard.

Are the rear seat passengers the crumple zone of the car? It looks tiny, about as (un)safe as an auto!

agspins · 21st October 2014, 22:48

The car with driver and dummies was spotted around 20th September at Engg college campus, here in Nagpur.

I have driven this car, I don't think I can say more, but let me tell you guys something, the dashboard mounted gearlever is not fun to use.

Spotted in Aurangabad by a friend.

Personally, I find this to be very flimsy. Looks like a dirt cheap and underpowered competitor to the Nano.
