Bajaj Urbanite Chetak: Image Gallery

After a long hiatus, Bajaj has made a come back in the scooter space but in an electric form. The bike maker has brought back the iconic Chetak name with an electric power train which will be sold under its newly formed Urbanite brand. The company had recently showcased the Chetak electric in Pune, from where we got you a bunch of detailed images of the scooter. Let’s check them out. 

One look at the Chetak and you know that it has followed a similar design theme of its petrol-powered ancestor. The smooth-flowing and curvy styling of the e-scooter is a treat to gawk at. 

While the circular headlamp speaks retro, the integration of LED lamps surrounded by a bright LED DRL depict its modernity. 

The wide front apron, which is majorly a single unit made up of steel, gets vertically placed faux air-intake flanked by narrow LED turn indicators which glow in a sequential pattern. 

LEDs have been retained for the tail lamp as well. The two-piece sleek tail lights integrate LED turn indicators which, again, are sequentially glowing units. 

At the rear, you also get a neatly designed, two-tone grab rail which merges nicely with the premium-looking, sloping seat.

 For displaying information, the new Chetak sports a unique circular LCD instrument cluster which is Bluetooth-enabled and shows a plethora of information. 

Bajaj has paid keen attention to detail which is conveyed by the neatly placed switchgear sitting flush in the handlebar cowl. There is a dedicated switch on the right hand switchgear which on short press opens the storage compartment in the front apron and on long press provides access to the under seat storage.

The scooter gets a closed glove box on the inside of the front apron which is a reminiscent of the old Chetak. The portable charger, first-aid kit and USB charging port is stored in it.

Also, adding to the utility options is an underseat compartment which offers decent storage space that can accommodate a half face helmet. 

The e-Chetak rides on beautifully designed, machine-cut alloy wheels with a 12-inch diameter. These wheels are shod with MRF Zapper tubeless tyres. 

It gets a single-sided suspension setup at both ends while braking is handled by a disc up front and drum brake at the rear.

The propelling motor of the scooter is powered by an IP-67 certified lithium-ion battery which has a claimed range of 95km on Eco mode and 75km on sport mode. 

Bajaj will be offering the Urbanite Chetak in six colour options and it will be priced between Rs 1-1.5 lakh, depending on the subsidiary received by the government.
