Bajaj Chetak Electric 2025 Edition : Bajaj has modernized the iconic Chetak electric scooter of yesteryears for the 2025 model year. The contemporary Chetak 35 Series boasts not just futuristic advanced tech with good range, but also practicality and comfort, its positioning truly worthy in the top-end electric scooters market. Really worth the glance if one is considering switching.
New Platform and Design Updates
The 2025 model comes with a whole new platform that allows the battery to be fitted under the floorboard. The repositioning of the battery now allows Bajaj to stretch the seating area, as well as the wheelbase, providing comfort to the rider and pillion. Moreover, it now has a cavernous under-seat storage that’s worth a whopping 35 liters – one of the best in the segment. The old-school retro design remains, with this styling getting more modern updates with sleeker body panels, fancy LED lights, and a new palette of colors.
Battery, Performance, and Range
Power is from huge 35kWh lithium-ion batteries paired to a 42kW motor. Its top speed is about 73 km/h and the certified full charge range is 153 km. One would expect something between 120 km and 130 km in realistic use. The scooter has support for fast charging; it being possible to charge from 0% to 80% in about three hours with the onboard 950W charger.
Smart Features & Connectivity
Its 5-inch full-color TFT touchscreen interface, one of the most prominent features of the new Chetak 3501 variant, also features a smartphone link for turn-by-turn navigation, music and call control, digital document storage, and other services. The optional TecPac Pack, on the other hand, enhances the safety features, such as accident alerts, tow detection, remote immobilization, and geofencing.
Safety & Build Quality
Although Bajaj retained the same sturdy steel body used on the original Chetak, they have also improved the protection around the battery. It gets IP67-grade protection for both the battery and the motor, making it safe from water and dust ingress. Safety features on the Chetak include CBS (combined braking system), reverse mode, side-stand cut-off, and an emergency brake light which is very bright.
Variants & Prices
The 2025 Chetak is available in three trims: 3502 (₹1.20 lakh), 3501 (₹1.27 lakh), and 3503. These variants all carry a warranty of 3 years or 50,000 km. While the premium 3501 variant started deliver in the very end of 2024, the base model started reaching buyers in early 2025. It is a nice balance between the tradition and technology in the Bajaj Chetak 2025 Edition. Better off in terms of range, space, and smart features, it creates a significant statement for people looking for a stylish and dependably throaty scooter in India.
