Recently Asked User Questions

Q. What is the difference between Bajaj Chetak Urbane and Bajaj Chetak Premium?
  • The main distinguishing factor between the Urbane and the Premium variant is that the latter gets a front disc brake with metallic-finish rims in the shade Slate Grey or Satin Black. More subtle changes on the Urbane trim include either a black or medium grey seat cover, Siberian silver bezels, black plastic floor mats, and two glossy solid colours. Comparatively, the Premium trim gets tan-coloured seats, Satin silver bezels, dark grey floor mats, and four glossy metallic colours.
Q. What's is the best choice bajaj chetak or tvs icube electric?
  • Selecting between the Bajaj Chetak and TVS iQube Electric would depend on certain factors such as usage, budget, features required, brand preference, etc. Bajaj has ushered in a new era of electric mobility with the Chetak electric. Its timeless appeal is only matched by its elegant style and premium fit and finish levels. The Chetak might not be as futuristic or boast of great performance as the Ather 450X, but it does offer an easy urban riding experience. The Bajaj is offering you a more feature-rich scooter, with things like a touchscreen, navigation, and fast charging, none of which are available on the Chetak. It’s also considerably quicker, more exciting to ride and even gets a rear disc brake over the Chetak’s drum. On the other hand, iQube Electric has an annoying startup tune, which sounds like a certain water purifier, The raised floorboard means your legs could foul with the handlebar while making tight U-turns, Doesn’t support fast charging, yet. The iQube should be sweating a bit, because, after years of being developed behind closed doors, it is now meeting reality and the competition. The Ather 450 and Bajaj’s Chetak put the iQube on the back foot, at least on paper, but it’s on the roads it has to prove itself. The heart of the iQube is a 3kW hub motor sourced from Bosch, which is a bit disappointing. Even the 4.4kW of peak power, translating to about 6PS of power, sounds quite middling. TVS’ claims of accomplishing the 0-40kph dash in 4.2s and hitting a top speed of 78kph don’t mean much either, unless it does so in a fun and confident manner. Moreover, we would suggest you take a test ride before making the final decision. Follow the link and select your desired city for dealership..Read more:- Bajaj Chetak First Ride ReviewRead more:- 2020 TVS iQube: First Ride Review
  • I (height is 5'9') found height between handle bar and floor board is ergonomically designed and not facing any problem while taking deep you turn. The instant pressing of Power/Start button will skip the initiation sound like water purifier. The practical real range per charge is 105-106 Kms with Rider's weight of 66Kgs. The charging time of 4 1/2 hours to reach from 5% to 100% is little bit boring. In fact, I experienced TVS IQube 2022 takes less than 4 Secs to reach 0-40 KPH and reaches 80KMH even when battery charge remains at 25%. This is my practical experience.
Q. Which is the best vehicle between Vespa Elettrica and Bajaj Chetak?
  • For now, Vespa Elettrica electric scooter is not available for sale in the market, thus it would not be fair to give a verdict here. Moreover, the Chetak might not be as futuristic or boast of great performance like the Ather 450X, but it does offer an easy urban riding experience. Its timeless appeal is only matched by its elegant style and premium fit and finish levels. For a better understanding of compatibility and riding comfort, we would suggest you to take a test ride. Follow the link and select your desired city for dealership details. Read More: - Bajaj Chetak First Ride Review

    Bajaj Chetak has made a grand comeback 

    Electrifying the streets, the Bajaj Chetak has made a grand comeback, this time in an electric avatar. With a retro design that comes back to its roots, combined with modern technology riding the Chetak is like experiencing the best of both worlds. Its IP 67 rated 3 kWh Lithium Ion battery promises a range of about 95 km on a single charge which is quite adequate for daily city commutes.But here is the kicker the charging time. It takes about 5 hours to fully charge, which means you need to plan your rides or charging spots a bit carefully.

    Electric Elegance for Urban Mobility 

    Chetak from Bajaj is a poster child of electric credentials, with its sophisticated riding experience remaining equally sustainable about the planet. Mixing in the retro-modern fashion with its nothing by the classical Chetak as its predecessor, its modern days of mobility cannot go without mention. With its silent electric motor, it provides immediate response for smooth and rapid acceleration, and thus is this is ideal for those that have to move gracefully through busy urban streets. The human interface of Chetak is also the saving grace, making it easy during commutes with digitized instrument cluster and smartphone integration that provides convenience and connectivity.

Its mighty electric motor and no emissions provide environmentally-conscious performance, which keeps niches of the environment as clean, as they are supposed to be. What makes the design timeless is the addition of contemporary accessories like a digital instrument cluster and smartphone connectivity which ensure comfort and practical usage. It enjoys the duel role as a perfect travel mate while at the same time the guardian of the environment and the mate that encourages and enables innovation in manufacture and urban mobility.

    Embodies the Spirit of Sustainable City Travel. 

    The Okinawa Ridge invites you to explore an undiscovered home. This electric motor scooter may give a veritably ultrapractical and effective boost for beginners to the megacity. Its satiny and truly ultrapractical project draws concentration. Because to the thorough webbing processes, you may travel with confidence. It has a remarkable range and is aimed for long peregrinations through megacities. The main argument I like this model is its unanticipated capacity to give, which makes it an excellent volition for individualities appearing for an electric scooter that matches their brazen-facedattitude.The electric motor on the two- wheeler is in fantastic shape and has an emotional range. It also seems unanticipated.

    Decent electric bike for the price 

    I have been riding hero electric optima cx with dual battery in hyderabad since july, 2022 and here is my feedback: good: - two batteries, So you always have a backup - both batteries removable, So you can remove each battery separately and charge at home or anywhere.- two chargers provided that work for both batteries, So you can keep one at home and one in bike for emergencies.- low pricebad: - very low ground clearance, Bottom hits most of the speed breakers.- very slow on slopes.- slow on plain roads too with an adult pillion rider.- top speed of 45 kmph, Feels less on empty roads sometimes.- pathetic customer service and delivery experience.- not high quality materials used, Does not feel robust overall.
