The ‘Premium’ model comes with a front disc, whereas the ‘Urbane’ gets a front drum brake. Apart from this, the differences are mostly cosmetic.

This metal-body electric scooter stays true to the original Chetak’s design. It gets flared side body panels with a retro-looking front end. The headlamp and turn signals feature LED units, while the instrument cluster is a fully digital LCD unit.

The scooter also gets smartphone connectivity, and Bajaj will offer free data for the first year. This feature uses the Internet Of Things (IoT) to notify the owner if the scooter is tampered with or if it does not charge properly. You can also check the scooter's location, charge status, and remaining range using this feature.

A single-sided swingarm packs a 4.08kW-producing (peak power) brushless DC motor. Maximum torque stands at 16Nm. With a 60.3Ah lithium-ion battery, the scooter offers a claimed range of 95km in ‘Eco’ mode and 85km in ‘Sport’ mode. It can be fully charged via a conventional 5A power socket in five hours, while a 25 percent charge can be achieved in just an hour. Bajaj will provide a 3-year or a 50,000km warranty (whichever is earlier) on the Chetak, including the battery. Its battery life is claimed to last around 70,000km, while its service interval is every 12,000km or one year.

Up front, the scooter features a single-sided suspension like the Vespa, and the rear is likely to pack a monoshock. There’s a disc brake at the front and a drum unit at the back.

The Chetak Electric rivals the Ather 450 Plus, TVS iQube Electric, Ola S1, and the upcoming Hero electric scooter
