The offer has been highlighted on the official Chetak website and various automotive portals, positioning the C2501 as one of the most competitively priced electric scooters from a trusted Indian manufacturer.
Why This Matters in the EV Market
The Chetak C2501 represents Bajaj Auto’s push to make electric two-wheelers more approachable for first-time buyers, urban commuters, and budget-conscious families. Launched earlier in January 2026 as the entry point to the revamped Chetak lineup, it undercuts many rivals while carrying forward the iconic Chetak’s timeless neo-classic design, all-metal body construction, and reputation for durability.
Priced aggressively in this discounted phase, it competes directly with models like the Hero Vida VX2 (starting around ₹85,000) and others in the sub-₹1 lakh segment, but stands out with Bajaj’s brand trust, widespread service network, and premium build quality.
