What's the story

Bajaj Auto has launched a Premium Edition of the Chetak in India with a price tag of Rs. 1.52 lakh (ex-showroom). At that price point, the vehicle competes with the 2023 Ather 450X Gen3 in the premium electric scooter segment on our shores.

The former offers a full-metal body, while the latter has vector-style navigation and hill-hold assist.

Which one is better?

Context

Why does this story matter?

With a rise in demand for sustainable mobility solutions, established automakers as well as new EV startups have been busy developing Battery Electric Vehicles (BEVs) in India.

Ather Energy was one of the early movers in the electric scooter category on our shores, with its 450X model.

However, with the entry of the iconic Chetak from Bajaj Auto, the competition has heated up.

Ather 450X Gen3 sports an apron-mounted LED headlight, a flat footboard, a flush-fitted side stand, designer mirrors, a redesigned seat, and an LED taillamp.

Both scooters ride on 12-inch alloy wheels.

Performance

Ather 450X Gen3 packs a more powerful electric motor

Our verdict

Which one should you buy?

In India, the 2023 Bajaj Chetak Premium Edition will set you back by Rs. 1.52 lakh, while the 2023 Ather 450X Gen3 can be yours at Rs. 1.58 lakh (all prices, ex-showroom).

In our opinion, the Ather 450X Gen3 makes more sense, as it has a futuristic design, a powerful electric motor, and a larger battery pack in comparison to its rival.
