Strong battery and range
The company has provided a 2.5 kWh lithium-ion battery pack in Bajaj Chetak C25. It is a floorboard-mounted battery, which helps in maintaining better balance of the scooter. The company claims that once fully charged, this scooter can run up to 113 kilometers (IDC range). However, in actual conditions its range may be around 90 kilometers. It has two riding modes – ‘Eco’ and ‘Sports’, which give the rider the freedom to choose power and range as per his need.

Apart from this, it has USB charging port, LED lighting and 25 liters of under-seat storage, in which you can easily keep the helmet or your luggage. This scooter is available in 6 attractive colors – Racing Red, Misty Yellow, Ocean Teal, Active Black, Opalescent Silver and Classic White.

For charging, a 750W off-board charger is available with it. This charger takes approximately 2 hours 25 minutes to charge the battery from 0 to 80%, while it takes 3.5 to 4 hours for a full charge (0-100%).
