Bajaj Chetak Electric scooter was launched in January. Its deliveries started later in March and it was limited to just two Indian cities - Pune and Bengaluru.

In terms of exterior styling, the Chetak Electric boasts an old-school retro design, which some say has been inspired from the Vespa scooter styling. Some of its key features include full LED lighting, premium paint finish, alloy wheels, keyless ignition and much more. It also features a full digital instrument console which displays all the necessary information in a clear and readable format.

It features a 3 kWh, IP67-rated battery pack and sources power from an electric motor which is capable of churning out 4 kW (5.36 PS) peak power, and 3.8 kW (5 PS) continuous power. The power is backed-up by 16 Nm of torque. It also features two ride modes - Sport and Eco. As the name suggests, the former promises to deliver a sportier ride experience while the latter provides a slightly longer maximum range. As per the company's official claims, the scooter can be charged up to 100% in about 5 hours.

It weighs 120 kg and is capable of attaining a top speed of 60 kmph. In the Eco mode it has a claimed maximum range of over 95 km, while the Sport mode offers slightly less 85 km of full charge range.
