Bajaj has expanded its electric scooter lineup in India with the launch of the all-new Chetak C2501 model. Positioned as the entry point of the Chetak portfolio, this new variant is lighter and more affordable than its siblings, though it offers a lower top speed and range to suit urban commuters. Here are all the essential details you need to know.
Bajaj Chetak C2501: Battery, range, and performance
The Bajaj Chetak C2501 is powered by a floorboard-mounted 2.5kWh battery pack, offering a claimed range of 113 km on a single charge. It comes with a 750W off-board charger, which takes approximately 3 hours and 45 minutes to charge the battery fully.
Unlike more premium variants, this model features a hub-mounted motor that delivers 1.8kW of continuous power and 2.2kW of peak power. The scooter is designed for city maneuverability with a top speed capped at 55 kmph.
Bajaj Chetak C2501: Design and dimensions
Maintaining the signature Chetak silhouette, the C2501 is suspended on a telescopic fork at the front and a twin-shock absorber setup at the rear. For safety, it is equipped with a front disc brake.
The scooter is particularly approachable due to its low 763mm seat height and a lightweight kerb weight of just 108 kg. Visually, it features:
- A new round LED headlight with integrated turn indicators.
- An upswept rear panel with a new single tail-lamp housing the rear indicators.
- Sleek black plastic mirrors for a modern look.

Despite being an entry-level model, the C2501 is packed with technology. It features an LCD screen that supports Bluetooth connectivity for call alerts and music playback control. Other notable features include:
- Hill-hold assist and a reverse function.
- Two riding modes: Eco and Sport.
- A built-in USB charger.
- A convenient front apron cubby for small items.
