Bajaj Chetak 30 And 35 Series Variants Explained: Which One Is For You?

Apart from the smaller C2501, the Bajaj Chetak is available in two distinct series: the 30 and 35 series. While the 30 series consists only of the 3001 model, the 35 series has three models: 3503, 3502, and 3501. Every variant has a different set of features and performance figures. From the colour LCD console in the base variant to the touch-enabled colour TFT console in the top version. Here are all the variants explained in detail:

Chetak 3001 

Price- Rs 1,07,400 (Ex-showroom, Delhi)

The Chetak 3001 is powered by a 3kWh battery pack, which has an IDC (Indian Driving Cycle) range of 127km and a claimed top speed of 63kmph. It takes 3 hours and 50 minutes to charge from 0 to 80 percent, thanks to an off-board charger. It also gets two ride modes: Eco and Sport. The scooter gets drum brakes at both ends.

Talking about features, it gets a colour LCD console, hill-hold assist, sequential turn indicators, and a reverse mode. It also has Bluetooth connectivity along with phone alerts. One can also purchase the optional TecPac, which enables   access to music controls and guide-me-home lights.

The base variant of the 35 series features a 3.5kWh battery pack that provides a claimed range of 151km, and takes 3 hours 25 minutes to charge from 0 to 80 percent.
