Bajaj Chetak 3001 Electric Scooter Features Explained
The Chetak 3001 may be the cheapest in the lineup, but it still gets all the essential features
Bajaj recently launched the most affordable variant of the Bajaj Chetak, called the Chetak 3001. The new electric scooter is built on the same platform as the Bajaj Chetak 35 series. It is priced at Rs 99,990 (ex-showroom), and has a lot of features, despite the affordable price tag. Here’s a detailed breakdown of everything the new scooter has to offer:
A Massive 35-Litre Bootspace
One of the biggest changes that the new electric scooter gets is the revised chassis. It is the same as the one used on the Bajaj Chetak 35 series, and as a consequence, the battery pack has been mounted on the floorboard instead of using the underseat space.
This has increased the underseat storage to a massive capacity of 35-litres. It should be more than enough to store most groceries and other stuff. With the 3001, practicality is one aspect you need not worry about.
LCD Console With Connectivity Features
The Chetak 3001 gets a simple colour LCD console which offers smartphone connectivity via Bluetooth. This opens up new features such as music control, with the rider being able to play or pause songs using the buttons on the switchgear.
Along with this, the console also offers other features such as call/SMS alerts and the ability to answer or reject calls on the go. That said, it is important to note that these features are offered with the Tec Pac, which costs extra. We’ve reached out to the brand regarding the pricing, and will update once we hear from them.
Riding Modes, Reverse & Hill Hold Assist
The Bajaj Chetak 3001 is offered with 2 ride modes: Eco and Sport. With Eco mode, the power and top speed is limited, and this helps when the rider is trying to conserve battery. The Sport mode, on the other hand, unlocks the scooter’s full power and performance, making it perfect for spirited riding.
The scooter also gets a Reverse mode as standard, which makes it easier to move around in the parking lot. With the Tec Pac, riders can also get a reverse light. The Tec Pac also enables Hill Hold Assist, which makes it easy to handle the scooter on inclines. The system holds the scooter in place, preventing it from rolling off slopes.
‘Guide Me Home’ Lights
Another interesting feature the scooter has is the Guide Me Home Lights, which stays lit even after turning off the scooter. It is a nifty little feature which makes it easy for riders to find their way in dark parking spots.
With all these features, the Bajaj Chetak 3001 proves (at least on paper) that an affordable electric scooter doesn’t have to make compromises. The Chetak 3001 is powered by a 3kWh battery pack, which offers a claimed range of 127km. It has a top speed of 68kmph, which is decent for city commutes. The New Chetak 3001 competes with other electric scooters in the market such as the TVS iQube and the Ola S1 X.
Bajaj Chetak User Reviews
I had purchased it when ev was new in market, I am very much satisfied. I had drove it for more than 50000 kms with no expense. I had to change only tyres and regular service only one auxiliary battery of Rs. 800 had been changed. I am quiet impressed me and my son both have purchased but there is very less front space between handle and seat to carry extra luggage vegetables or ration need to improve in this area good service staff in patni and Nagpur. I will recommend everyone to go for this ev only. Positive, Very good for local commute, I had recovered all the money spend for purchase, me and my son had not spend a single penny for petrol, very pleasant ride for city and highway also but with limitation of distance. mid age person college boys with huge space in seat box for helmet and laptop girls working women also it's value for money, I had already 2 chetak with me and both vehicle had been run for 50000 and 23000 kms planning to purchase one more for my wife.Read More
