The new Chetak 3501 electric scooter has officially arrived in Nepal. This launch marks Bajaj’s entry into the Nepali electric two-wheeler market.
Chetak 3501 Hill
A standout feature of the all-new Chetak 3501 is the advanced Hill Hold Assist function. This technology is a game-changer for riders in Nepal, where steep inclines are a daily challenge.
The Chetak 3501 is engineered to provide a safe and effortless riding experience on hilly terrains. This innovative Hill Hold Assist ensures you stay steady and confident, even on the steepest climbs. No more rolling back or losing your balance. Just smooth, effortless control.
Effortless Uphill Riding
Navigating busy city streets often means dealing with sudden stops on a slope. For many riders, this can be a difficult and nerve-wracking situation.
Hill Hold Assist simplifies this. When you stop on an incline, the system automatically engages the brakes for a few seconds after you release the throttle.
This gives you ample time to accelerate smoothly without any backward roll. It is a crucial safety feature that provides peace of mind.
Designed for Nepali Roads
The Chetak 3501 has been specifically tested on Nepal’s diverse terrain, including a demanding ride to Lo Manthang. This testing proves its capability to handle a variety of road conditions.
Beyond the Hill Hold Assist, the scooter features a robust, full-metal body and an IP67 water-resistant rating. These elements ensure durability and protection against the elements.
A 170 mm ground clearance further enhances its ability to handle rough patches and bumps.
Power and Performance
Powering the Chetak 3501 is a 3.5 kWh lithium-ion battery. This battery is paired with a 4 kW BLDC motor that delivers 20 Nm of torque.
This combination provides a top speed of 73 km/h. It also offers a claimed range of up to 153 km on a single charge. The scooter supports fast charging, reaching 80% charge in about three hours. This makes it highly practical for daily use.
Smart Technology and Modern Aesthetics
The Chetak 3501 is more than just a powerful scooter. It is packed with smart features. It boasts a 5.5-inch TFT touchscreen console.
This display offers integrated maps, music control, and document storage. Riders can also manage calls directly from the display. An optional TecPac upgrade unlocks even more advanced features.
These include remote immobilization, geo-fencing, and anti-theft alerts. The scooter’s design blends classic Chetak aesthetics with a modern touch. It is available in a variety of colors, including Space Grey, Salt Green, Still White, and Cosmic Black.
A Step Towards Sustainable Mobility
The launch of the Chetak 3501 in Nepal is a significant step forward for the country’s electric vehicle landscape. The scooter offers an eco-friendly alternative to traditional vehicles, with zero tailpipe emissions.
It contributes to a cleaner and more sustainable urban environment. With its blend of advanced technology, classic design, and practical features like Hill Hold Assist, the Chetak 3501 is set to lead Nepal’s move towards green mobility. The price for this feature-rich electric scooter starts at Rs. 3,24,900 in the Nepali market.
