Bajaj Auto has recently relaunched its only electric scooter model Chetak. The new model is called Chetak Urban. This scooter comes with added battery packs and features that enhance customer convenience. With these improvements, the popularity of Chetak is expected to rise, but it faces competition in the market. Ola S1 Air, another electric scooter, has seen an increase in sales over the past month.
Indian consumers are looking to switch to electric scooters to escape the rising prices of petrol and diesel. If you are considering buying either Chetak or S1 Air, it is essential to have knowledge about their features and specifications. Let’s delve into what makes each scooter unique.
The Bajaj Chetak Urban is equipped with a 2.9 kWh lithium-ion battery, providing a range of up to 113 km on a full charge. On the other hand, the Ola S1 Air comes with a 3 kWh battery pack, offering a range of 151 km on a full charge. The top speed of the Bajaj Chetak Techpack version is 73 km/h, while the Ola S1 Air can reach a top speed of 90 km/h. In terms of top speed, Ola is ahead, but running an electric scooter at 90 km/h drains the battery faster.
The Ola S1 Air comes with a digital screen, navigation system, USB charging port, and Bluetooth connectivity. The Bajaj Chetak Urban scooter features a digital LCD instrument cluster. The top model of Chetak offers hill hold, reverse mode, smartphone connectivity, and OTA updates. Ola’s electric scooter seems to have an edge in terms of features.
The price of the Ola S1 Air scooter starts at Rs. 1.20 lakh (ex-showroom), while the Bajaj Chetak Urban is priced at Rs. 1.15 lakh, with the top model priced at Rs. 1.21 lakh (ex-showroom). There isn’t a significant difference in the prices of both scooters. According to experts, if you are willing to spend this amount, you can opt for Ola Electric, although Bajaj Chetak is also a worthy option.
In the last, both Bajaj Chetak and Ola S1 Air have their unique features and specifications. The choice between them ultimately depends on the buyer’s preferences and requirements.
