The scooter now rides on a newly designed frame, accommodating a larger 3.5 kWh battery pack that delivers a claimed range of 153 km on a single charge. The battery supports fast charging, reaching 0-80 per cent in just three hours using a 950-watt onboard charger. The repositioned battery, located in the footboard area, allows for a spacious 35-litre under-seat storage compartment.
The 2025 Chetak offers enhanced ergonomics with a seat that is 80 mm longer, improving comfort for both rider and pillion. The footboard is also extended by 25 mm, providing better leg and knee room. The scooter retains its sturdy steel monocoque bodyshell, ensuring durability.
Powered by a lighter 4.2 kW (5.6 bhp) electric motor, the new Chetak achieves a top speed of 73 km/h. Enhanced motor cooling and a reinforced battery casing with added sheet metal for protection contribute to improved performance and reliability. The e-scooter comes with two riding modes – Eco and Sport – catering to diverse riding needs.
Bookings for the 2025 Chetak 35 series are now open online and across Bajaj’s dealership network. Deliveries for the 3501 variant are set to begin in late December 2024, with the 3502 following in January 2025. Buyers will benefit from a 3-year/50,000 km warranty.
