Personal Bajaj chetak performance review

Because mileage, looks cool and performance is better in same price if we compare with others, trust by our old brand with bajaj. Looks really cool and in 3kw battery range is very good. Overall in below 1.5 lakh price it's very effective. I have not ride in highway but I used in city for a couple of months, it is really cool to handle and service is very easy to maintain, it is very smooth ride as much I did. And performance is also very good. I would recommend to purchase not for young people, all type of age can use this scooter in ev segment. After using my friend scooter i am planing to purchase for my brother this Diwali. I m satisfied with this scooter. Read More
