​

Bajaj has launched the updated Chetak Premium at a starting price of Rs 1.35 lakh (ex-showroom). The 2024 Chetak Premium receives some notable updates including a marginally larger battery pack, longer range and additional features. At its current price, the updated Chetak Premium now costs about Rs 20,000 more than the recently introduced Chetak Urbane.

The Chetak Premium now gets a 5-inch TFT display for the instrument cluster. An optional TecPac enhances this from a monochrome display on the standard Chetak Premium to a colour screen with access to turn-by-turn (TBT) navigation, music controls, call alerts, and even letting users personalise the theme. The TecPac also adds hill hold control to the feature list while reverse mode is standard on the Premium variant.

It gets a larger 3.2 kWh battery pack – up from 2.9 kWh – bumping up range from 108 km to 127 km (ARAI certified). Top speed too has been bumped up from 63 kmph to 73 kmph. As before the Chetak Premium comes with an 800 W on-board charger that can add up to 15.6 km of range with a 30-minute charge.

The 2024 Chetak Premium gets some cosmetic tweaks over the 2023 model. Many silver trim elements from the outgoing model have been replaced by blacked-out elements such as the headlamp surround, indicator surround, grab handle garnish and even the wheels.
