Chetak C25 Launch- Aiming for the Top
It looks like Bajaj Auto wants to be the biggest maker of electric cars in India. They just showed off their new Chetak C25 electric bike. Head of electric vehicle strategy Rishab Bajaj talked about the launch and said that the company is hopeful that the new model will help it get a stronger place in the rapidly growing EV market. Electric bikes are becoming more popular in Indian towns, and Bajaj wants to attract city workers seeking a safe, affordable, and stylish way to get around.
The C25 isn’t simply a new product for Chetak; it’s part of a bigger strategy to take over the Indian electric vehicle industry. Bajaj Auto has already sold a lot of electric vehicles, and the new kind is likely to keep that up. Bajaj wants the C25 to seem both useful and fancy so that it can gain more consumers and compete with other brands.
Features and Usefulness for People Who Commute in Cities
It was made so that the Chetak C25 can be used in cities. It has a 2.5 kWh battery and can go up to 113 kilometres on a single charge, making it good for commuting to work, short trip and running tasks. The scooter starts at Rs 91,399, which puts it in the sub-1 lakh price band. This means many people can afford it, despite its high end features.
The C25 is designed for use in cities. It’s light, easy to move, and made for the stop-and-go traffic that you’ll find in towns. Bajaj has said the scooter is affordable, stylish, and reliable, making it a good choice for people buying their first electric scooter or moving from smaller or older models.
More sales and a better place in the market
The electric bike company at Bajaj Auto has been doing well. The company sold 39% more electric scooters in 2025 than the year before or about 2.7 lakh units. The only other Indian company that made more electric bikes was TVS Motor Company. Electric vehicles are becoming more popular and Chetak is becoming a household name.
Bajaj leaders have also addressed supply chain issues. Rare earth magnet shortages make manufacturing difficult. Bajaj built facilities for domestic suppliers and altered part designs to reduce their need on foreign resources.. In this way, output can keep going even when the world supply changes.

EV strategy and outlook for the future
Bajaj Auto has a long term plan for electric vehicles and the Chetak C25 is part of that plan. Some rivals keep both gas and electric bike lines, but Bajaj is only interested in electric movement. Rishab Bajaj has made it clear that his company thinks electric scooters are the way of the future for two-wheeled transportation, especially in cities.
There are different types of Chetaks, like the C25, that are made by Bajaj. These range in price and can be used for different jobs. It is likely for the company to get a bigger part of India’s electric vehicle (EV) market since it caters to cheap and metropolitan travellers.
Overall, the Chetak C25 is more than just a new scooter. It is a smart product that will help Bajaj Auto become even more of a star in India’s electric vehicle market.
