Can Bajaj Chetak compete with other E-scooters? It's Price, Specifications and Features.

The Bajaj Chetak is an urban electric scooter that meets all requirements due to its good build quality and adequate performance. Still, considering its price range, it's not that high on the feature list. For those looking for a high-quality, no-frills e-scooter, the Bajaj Chetak is an excellent choice overall.

Design
The Urbane variant of Chetak has a fully digital colour LCD instrument cluster, while the TecPac sub-variant of the Premium variant has a 5-inch TFT instrument console and the Standard sub-variant has a monochrome TFT instrument console. 

The Chetak has LED units for its headlight, taillight and indicators. Turn-by-turn navigation and smartphone connectivity are included with the 5-inch TFT instrument console
