Just a week after we’d confirmed in our exclusive story that a new Bajaj Chetak electric scooter is set to be launched soon, Bajaj Auto has sent a block-your-date invite for the launch of the new EVin India, on January 14, 2026. This e-scooter will not be a new generation of the current Bajaj Chetak. Instead, it is expected to be a more affordable new model that will be positioned lower in the brand’s existing Chetak lineup. With this move, Bajaj aims to strengthen its presence in the mass-market EV segment.
This upcoming Chetak model will be Bajaj’s direct answer to rivals such as TVS Orbiter, and the base variants of the Vida VX2. With the expected price of this new variant ranging between Rs 80,000 and Rs 90,000 (ex-showroom), Bajaj is likely to target buyers who want the trust of an established brand without stretching their budget.
The scooter has also been spotted testing on Indian roads, and the spy shots suggest that the new electric scooter will be slightly smaller than the current Chetak. It is also likely to move away from the brand’s signature full-metal body, instead using lighter materials to help reduce costs and overall weight. Losing weight is crucial in an EV as that will play a big role in improving the range as the battery will have to work less hard in moving the e-scooter. While the details are still under wraps, here’s our full analysis of the upcoming Chetak electric scooter.
