  Chetak is a well-rounded electric scooter suited for daily office commutes and short city hops, with real-world range, ample storage, and low-maintenance automatic riding.

  The Chetak is a well-built, feature-rich electric scooter, but its modest power and 63 kmph top speed make it a comfort-commuter rather than a thrill machine for enthusiasts.

  The Chetak offers a comfortable flat seat, solid safety aids, and useful storage, making it a decent family-friendly scooter, though its modest range and low top speed suit shorter city trips more than long family rides.

  The Chetak is a city-focused electric scooter, poorly suited for long-distance highway touring due to limited range and low top speed.

  Great build and comfort, app and charging need improvement

  The Bajaj Chetak earns high marks for the things you feel every day -- ride comfort, build solidity, and smooth power delivery -- but reveals gaps in the areas that matter more as ownership stretches. The app is the weakest link: navigation loses signal inconsistently, charge estimates have been off by 15 percent on several occasions, and the interface feels dated compared to Ather. Charging at home works but the slow charger means an overnight is mandatory after a long day; a faster charger option would help. Range in eco mode is honest and adequate for my commute. The scooter itself is excellent -- Bajaj just needs to invest in the software side to match the hardware quality it has clearly achieved.

  Handles city-plus runs well if you stay realistic

  I use the Chetak for Delhi commuting and occasional runs to Gurgaon and Noida, roughly 40-50 km each way, and it handles this usage profile comfortably. Range in eco mode is a genuine 90-95 km in Delhi winter conditions, which covers the outer-ring loop I do most weekends with charge to spare. Ride comfort on NH stretches at 60-65 kmph is smooth and the build quality means rough patches do not transmit harshly. I do not attempt expressways -- the top speed is not suited to that. For city-plus riders who stay within a realistic 70-80 km radius and avoid high-speed roads, the Chetak is an excellent, dependable choice that rewards the discipline of knowing your route.

  Switched from petrol and will never go back

  Twelve months on the Bajaj Chetak after 15 years of petrol scooters and I can say the switch is permanent. The Chetak replaced a Honda Activa and betters it in every category that matters for daily commuting -- running cost, ride smoothness, build quality, and maintenance demands. Range in eco mode covers my 24 km round trip five days without a recharge. Home charging overnight is effortless and adds nothing noticeable to my electricity bill. The metal construction makes it feel substantial in a way plastic-bodied competitors do not. The app is simple which I prefer -- it does what it needs to without unnecessary complexity. A deeply dependable daily partner.

  Beautiful scooter that refuses to be ridden with any urgency

  I bought the Chetak drawn in by the design and Bajaj's brand reliability. The design remains gorgeous and the build quality is genuinely the best I have seen on any electric scooter. But the riding experience is a deep disappointment for anyone who enjoys riding rather than just travelling. The top speed of 63 kmph means any attempt to ride briskly on Mumbai's arterials is immediately frustrating -- cars pull away from you on every green light. There is no sport mode that meaningfully changes the character. The app offers nothing for an enthusiast. The Chetak is a premium commuter product that has been designed for a specific type of buyer who is not me. I respect what it is; I should not have bought it.
