2020 Bajaj Chetak EV Review | First Ride | Autocar India

[@KK-gc5lj]

Will gift it to my dad.his first vehicle was a 2nd hand chetak

[@btarunr]

Electric scooters, and EVs, will be severely limited in adoption by infrastructure. Chetak's target buyer probably lives in a 20-storey apartment building, and his Chetak is parked in a cellar garage. Government and Urban Development Ministry needs to come up with a standard with which a charging point at an apartment building's parking spot can somehow link with its flat-resident's electricity bill. And, there needs to be a method by which my neighbor can't plug his EV into my socket (maybe some device authentication tech). Until that happens, only people living in independent houses or villas can be brave enough to buy EVs.

[@anilbharti4355]

Bajaj Chetak has increased the price of their electric scooter for second time without any noticeable up gradation. The first hike was Rs.5000/- and thereafter a whooping hike of Rs.27000/- in March 2021.”Bajaj” is exploiting the trust of Indian customers who are having great faith in this brand. The manufacturer has little sentiments for their trusted customer and enchasing every opportunity to swallow the subsidy amount and hard earned money of the buyers. As a thumb rule the production cost goes down with increase in production volume! Then why so frequent and intense price hikes? This is not only the story of Bajaj Chetek, every second electric scooter that gain slightest popularity has adopted the similar strategy, like Ather-450x has done few months back. They have no ethics, no sentiments for environment, country or people. I appeal to general public to boycott this product.

[@soulmortal142]

Yes it was the first scooter that my father bought too. And used it for 15 yrs

[@nlanghae]

So many memories as a child with Chetak. It was just perfect.

[@NiharAmrute]

I own a Bajaj Stride 92 model, which I think probably nowhere exists in India. Still in excellent condition. Bajaj has comeback now with a scooter and we trust Chetak EV for the same. Already booked in Pune and waiting for delivery. I MUST SAY, DEFINITELY BETTER THAN ATHER AND OTHER AVAILABLE EV SCOOTERS IN MARKET.

[@HarshHYP]

These EVs make people conscious of every kilometre they are travelling, so serves lesser purpose if the vehicles have lower range. These can be mainstreamed only after achieving a satisfactory price to performance(range) ratio, otherwise just expensive toys for show off.

[@shreyaskashyap]

There is nothing astonishing as far as the designed is concerned. There is already a vehicle which looks similar, the Yamaha Fascino.. the handle lines and the body lines are identical to the Fascino.

[@JoeEric3]

What about vespa?

[@Sujeesh_Bhosri]

It does not look like fasino. This looks better.

[@muhammedjawad3928]

Bajaj already captured international markets

[@priyamd4759]

How do you charge the battery if you do not stay at the Ground floor in an apartment complex? Thanks,

[@user-0ilze3zjfz]

lot of childhood memories. Happy to see this scooter in all new avatar.

[@ShahidKhan-gb9so]

Y Scoty kab tak milbsakti h bazar m please give me answer

[@rishibajpai2976]

What about Cost of Batteries Replacement and Maintenance ??.

[@santoshkoyada]

When can we expect to have it launched in hyderabad ?..please reply

[@ashish282]

Revolt is ahead in terms of range and top speed..also providing feature of removable battery

[@manavram7154]

Should have included fast charge if the range is less than 100 kms!!! sad...

[@alsbeats3779]

is Blootooth Speaker 🔊 Available for music 🎵?

[@ashwinbb]

Naye Bharath ki Nayi Chetak.. Hamara Bajaj :)

[@borntorule16]

What if I want to travel 60kms somewhere and come back 60kms I did that once on a dio, since it was a petrol I filled it, how about electric scooter? I will do the full charging and go one side 60kms and have to go again 60km but I see that after 15kms the battery will be low and where will I charge?

[@kanadvirpe1163]

How much electricity units it consume for full charge from 0 to 100%

[@kanavkatoch6446]

My Father is Using Bajaj Chetak Scooter and it's been over 16 years. Now he's thinking of switching to Bajaj Chetak EV. But doubtful about reliability and is it good for carrying two persons. Any Owner experience. Plzz answer.

[@sumit55z]

Top speed of just 60 & limited range make it a failure....though the design & asthetic is world class. Bajaj needs to increase that range to 150...else it's not practical scooter. All hopes on Suzuki now. If manufacturers start giving too much importance on looks then scooter loose their practicality which is the main purpose of buying any scooter . Electric Scooter makers/designers should not mind if scooter becomrs fat or looks bit out of shape in the interest of fitting larger battery...and higher performance. Else it becomes All show ....no go.

[@atharvaphulari7163]

nice to see pune in the video 😀

[@BellyToGilly]

Possible to charge it from 15a plug?

[@krishnachaitanya8590]

After 2 years, the chetak has finally arrived in our city Visakhapatnam! 🥵.

[@testprs1]

Bought Chetak a week back, Chetak has a flaw with keyless entry, today the vehicle drove for almost more than a kilometer without the keys 🔑 with rider this looks like a great technical flaw and error by chetak engineering team , aay one can intelligently take this vehicle and vanish off to unknown location 📍please think twice to buy chetak without subsidy as well

[@DanteshKumar]

is there any facility available at public places for charging ?

[@NishantPatel28]

Bajaj Has shorten the seat length old model 3 people could seat easily but in this Chetak Electric seat is shot 2nd person might not be so comfortable behind

[@saisriharshasaripalli3766]

Chetak ruled for many years... In the Indian market as a legend. The company should have come up with a different approach.

[@quicksmash]

Man..60? For real?

[@satyam100c]

We will be glad if we gar electric pulsar from them 😍😍😍😍 i will buy 2

[@vfourvvv7701]

@2:34 Can one explain what are those buttons ?

[@akshitsoni6325]

Those are driving modes

[@Yathuprem]

What is the weight difference between urbane and premium?

[@1991shalabhagarwal]

Well, I was just wondering about the charging connection for people who live in the apartments. How would they get one installed in the basement or the parking lot? The society certainly won't allow getting one installed.

[@prabhuslegalhub]

why would recommend this over the ather 450x

[@DasGaneshRAKESH]

I suggest electric scooters must have a battery compartment just like the batteries in a remote, easy to remove and replace with an already charged battery, and also providing charging stations with pre charged batteries ready in hand.

[@bettypulidorequez5217]

👦William Andres Gonzales Pulido. MUY CHIDORI 🔥🔥BAJAJ CHETAK

[@iamsansun]

How is the space for the pillion rider? Looks less than adequate. And what about range when 2 people are there?

[@MrRabidhakal]

What will be the battery replacement cost ?

[@fadhilmajeed.8939]

*Old chetak is❤️*

[@Sunny-ll8pz]

I wud have loved if chetak also came with a powerful petrol engine

[@travellingfighters]

How many hours have to charge and how many km can drive

[@girishdevappa5562]

Valuable information! Thanks Girish

[@ravirajyaguru5905]

I like the design. They should also offer this scooter with a 150 cc IC engine as well.

[@sanurawat1651]

60kph is enough for a scooter for day to day use... Going above 60 makes things uncomfortable if roads aren't good

[@sauravallen]

The front is not inspired but outright copied from the Vespa lineup... Sad.

[@JoeEric3]

Since the 80s

[@asmitajadhav5425]

Thankyou!!

[@RakeshKumar-cn9bu]

Bajaj could have gone with Monoshock suspension to make it more comfortable for city rides. And more stylish

[@ashwinbb]

Indian companies making excellent EVs.. Ather, Chetak, Tata Nexon!! India will dominate EV industry in few years :)

[@seenutry8862]

When will it comes to Chennai

[@abhjnayak]

Woooo..... It's amazing...😍😍😍✌️✌️✌️

[@abhishekdey1785]

How many KMS will the scooter run in full charge? What is the batter warranty?

[@vishaalpandey3773]

Why their is no subsidy on chetak.

[@mayurmowad7565]

Sir make video on TVS iqube

[@rkkrz4]

Next time increase range to 150km .Then Electric scooters will sell like anything

[@arouninn]

or Super Fast Charging option!

[@arunkottolli]

80km range is good for 99% of urban/city users. With charging points in office and home.

[@jagpreetsingh3667]

My problem is most of the population going to buy a scooter lives in apartments. And the scooter is parked somewhere under the building or wherever there is space to park. There should be a wall socket charger too. This fixed charger thing isn't gonna work. TVS i qube has a better option. They claimed that they are going to give a normal wall socket plug.

[@pawanjoshi5999]

Please review Tigor Amt

[@Siddharth-uo6zw]

#Thums up for European feel like scooter by Indian brand Bajaj proud on you👍👍 💪💪 😉

[@Rahul-kz5fi]

At this point chetak is just nostalgia Because be honest, no one will buy it for 1 lakh

[@mohamednabeel7201]

No one??? I think your wrong

[@immanuel4321]

Any new BS6 scooter will cost 91-95k.

[@ngbaladvillanzz2076]

Mileage matters in india, already fuel price are getting higher like anything. But e bike with less mileage won't make a change. Better make efficient bike....

[@sclsuv9361]

Bajaj chetak should update with Universal input charger cord

[@lailabegum2063]

Do you have any showroom for these products in Bangladesh?

[@infernoo__007]

Awesome design

[@amitdhature9760]

I saw u in Pune University campus..😎😁😀

[@uttamkumarsinghh]

Things like this is not gonna work in Indian market if you are giving the battery life of

[@meu4582]

It's front side look like jadu 😅but back side is 😍

[@likhitkanchan95]

Waiting for petrol version I will buy it with no questions asked

[@punarv]

Was waiting for the Autocar India drive of Bajaj Chetak Electric. Thanks a lot for this.🙂🙏

[@udaywakchoure1452]

How much is the electric consumption in units ?

[@maadhujovi9528]

Really less bro....like 10ruppes for 70km 😉😉

[@rakesh14246]

What if battery charge finish

[@punitsingh5705]

Good information

[@mahendranayak3122]

Wow Chetak once again on road☺️☺️ with a new look...

[@Wolf-hd1hr]

If it's 90 claiming, it'll probably go around 60 kms on eco mode. Means one has to charge every time after a small trip. Not that practical and that too limited to 60kph. Nice scooter but I'll pass.

[@RoshR]

can they make one with a 125cc BS6 engine with more speed bandwith....

[@ajay4424]

Plz let me know how many km u drove in single charge?

[@umeshdave619]

90km

[@dipanshutomar8144]

an eye candy for sure

[@rameshbaburudru2762]

Sir Chetak Electric Vehicle 1) Seat Design Not looking good 2) Plz break up two seats 3) Plz release Petrol vehicle not depend on complete electric

[@Altruisticme]

Searched everywhere, without any luck Are electric scooter powerful than Suzuki access or activa? Anyone??

[@sheelagrawal6672]

is it gear one or gearless?

[@dhirendrasinhrana202]

One gear and its reverse gear

[@pramodpatil8231]

Is available in Karad

[@raunakagarwal3343]

I think its not for tall persons as there is no space for pillion while the host is riding.

[@sohail7728]

How much in one full charge

[@sanyojmest7509]

Appears to be made for shorter riders, may not be suitable for tall riders with a lady sitting sideways

[@subratakumardas6532]

Bajaj plz launch the petrol chetak 💓 A kind request 🎀

[@nasnaseer9938]

In od meter 53% battery is range is 61 km. So around 110 to 120 for full charge100% maybe

[@ashwinbb]

Chetak when compared to Ather 450x is great bargain :)

[@shrigatty1278]

ather 450x costs around 2.5 lacks including subscription fee

[@maxpoweroverdrive]

To put simply, For collage students we have Ather and Avera For people in their 40s and 50s we have Chetak!

[@owaisparvez6232]

Problem with electric as of now is that most of the buyer atleast for two wheeler would be young and thus, mostly living on rent. Now getting a power plug fixed in a rented department and then moving can be seen as a difficult thing. It's the problem of scale I believe. The government can ask every housing society to put in atleast 2 power chargers or something and charge by meter readings or something.

[@beinghuman10x]

blue look good

[@felakawilam5747]

Electric scooter have a long way to go still

[@indiaupdates9453]

We can't ever compare with the bajaj scooter that used to be!!!chetak was chetak!!!!

[@akshayrathod2013]

Better to buy Arther 450x instead of Bajaj chetak ev.more features in similar price

[@Allthingstech3108]

It should have a removable battery which can be carried indoors,so that it easy to charge even if we live in an apartment.

[@jaisonthomas1562]

Nice one

[@parixithada4003]

Electricity expense??

[@dmvijaykumar3311]

2 units 12rs

[@yogeshyogi7069]

Plz relaunch the old model chetak scooter it's the best scooter

[@Abhishek..G]

Today priced at 1lac, 3years from now will be 75k with 150km range and 90kmph limit. Better to wait for unless one doesn't mind the extra cost

[@pradeeptumuluri]

90kms range is less compared to its competitor Ola...I love chetak and Bajaj as brand it's a family. But Ola has much better features and range..

[@rajeshmb6745]

Chetak is already a good in electric form ticking right in all boxes. But still not justified enough . There may be equal number Or more folks looking for ICE powered version of Chetak, And would have worked like a nuclear bomb. Anyway Bajaj may be closing looking into it as well. Fingers crossed

[@akshitdave4604]

plz review jawa perak
