India’s electric scooter segment is abuzz, and if you want to make a transition to EV, you’re in the right place. In today’s article, we’ll compare the top three models, Kinetic DX, Bajaj Chetak, and TVS iQube priced in the same range but each with something different to offer.
Kinetic DX
Kinetic DX is a new player in India’s EV market and is up against other mainstream models such as Ather Rizta, Vida VX2, and Honda Activa e. Its menacing looks and speed-oriented specs put it in a strong position. Priced from ₹1.12 lakh to ₹1.17 lakh (ex-showroom), it wants to appeal to customers who are looking for speed and battery performance in a next-gen look.
Bajaj Chetak
Bajaj Chetak, which costs ₹1.14 lakh (ex-showroom), combines tradition with electric technology. It comes with a 3.5 kWh battery that delivers a 153 km range on a single charge and has a top speed of 63 km/h. Its well-balanced combination of range and brand trust makes it a very desirable choice for city riders.

Battery & Performance Comparison

Bajaj Chetak’s 3.5 kWh battery gives more at 153 km, but its top speed is lesser. TVS iQube finds the middle ground with two available batteries and decent overall performance, particularly in its ST variant.
