Bajaj Chetak

The overall design and looks of the Chetak e-scooter are futuristic and mostly curvy. With the blunt use of round and curvy body lines, round headlight with LEDs, and LED tail lights with LED indicators; the Chetak looks astonishing and subtle at the same time. The wide seat offers good riding comfort for both the rider as well pillion. It is ample space underneath the seat and in front of the seat as well. Gloss piano black rearview mirrors do look funky. It retains a retro style while giving modern features and thus catering to young buyers.
