Bajaj Chetak Online Bookings Resumed For Pune And Bangalore

After introducing Chetak electric scooter in three new cities: Aurangabad, Mysore, and Mangalore, Bajaj has now resumed its online bookings for customers of Pune and Bengaluru. Interested customers can book the e-scooter via the brand's official website for a token amount of Rs 2,000. 

For those who aren't aware, Bajaj offers the electrified Chetak scooter in two variants: Premium and Urbane, priced at Rs 1,44,987 and Rs 1,42,988 (ex-showroom), respectively. Unfortunately, Chetak is not getting FAME-II subsidy yet, which makes it quite expensive than its core competitors like Ather 450X, and TVS iQube. Even the Revolt RV400 electric motorcycle is more affordable than the Bajaj Chetak. However, the brand is working on the indigenisation of the Chetak, and once it meets all the standards of the FAME-II scheme, the brand will be able to bring down its prices significantly. That is why we would advise you to avoid buying it till its prices come down. Also, the waiting period on the Bajaj scooter is a bit long.
