According to a media report, the Bajaj Auto's new electric scooter under the Urbanite brand is likely to be launched in a phased manner.

The new electric scooter that is rumoured to be called Chetak Chic Electric is expected to be launched on October 16, 2019. The report suggests that the e-scooter is likely to be launched in Pune and Bangalore in the first phase. It is expected to be launched in other cities in the coming months.

The report states that the Bajaj chose Pune because it is where the company is based and therefore, it would be easier to gauge the market response and fix any issues quickly. Bangalore was chosen as it already has an extensive charging infrastructure in place and is home to Ather Energy - the company that builds the Ather 450 electric scooter, which is expected to rival the Chetak Chic Electric.
