Bajaj has only unveiled the scooter, revealing its features and styling. While the scooter uses a 4kW electric motor and a unique automated transmission, the battery specifications have not been revealed yet. What we do know is that the lithium-ion battery pack is non-removable, and Bajaj claims a real-world range of 95km in Eco Mode and 85km in Sport mode.

The manufacturer has also confirmed that the electric Chetak will be priced between Rs 1 Lakh to Rs 1.2 Lakhs. Bajaj has confirmed that it will be priced very attractively and competitively. Also, we are not sure if these prices are ex-showroom on-road prices. Bajaj has also confirmed that it will be positioned as a premium scooter rivalling the likes of Ather 450 and Okinawa i-Praise electric scooters. If these will be the price of the electric Bajaj Chetak, it is bound to catch some eyes.
