All the 90s kid might remember the Bajaj Chetak scooter. Most of the families had it and for them, it would be of great pride to have a scooter. Geared-scooters have become extinct now, the last one was the Honda Eterno. Recent reports say that Bajaj is going to relaunch the Chetak as a 125cc premium scooter. Like the Vespa was revived again, this might get the same treatment. According to GaadiWaadi, this 125cc revival might be priced around Rs 70,000 and is expected to launch next year. Also, there is a subsequent scoop about the Chetak also getting an electric variant next year. We expect both of them to be priced decently and can be a huge hit. A joy for the oldies as they can say that they have a Bajaj Chetak.
