Bajaj Chetak to get an affordable variant in May

The new entry-level Chetak e-scooter is likely to feature a hub-mounted motor.

Bajaj Auto is planning to introduce a new base variant of the Chetak electric scooter next month. It will be positioned below the existing Urbane and Premium trims.

In a recent interaction with the media, Rakesh Sharma, Executive Director of Bajaj Auto, said, "The product upgrade in the fourth quarter was very well accepted. We will be launching a new product by May."

He went on to state that the new product will have a more mass appeal. "We hope to attack the mass segment (with the new model). I cannot share the price, but it's not going to be a premium offering."

Bajaj launched the 2024 Chetak in January. It uses a 3.2 kWh battery pack that offers an increased range of 127 km. The new base variant is likely to feature a hub-mounted motor.
