The move from petrol to electric scooters has brought into question build quality and durability. Electric models are relatively new, and traditional petrol scooters have had decades to refine their construction. In this area the Bajaj Chetak 3501, as an electric scooter, gets scrutinized. Its feel, sturdiness, and overall quality is often compared by users with familiar petrol models. But this comparison isn’t just about aesthetics, it’s also about long term durability and maintenance. Do the materials used measure up to the same standard? How can it survive on a daily basis? Does integrating electric components change the overall build? For potential buyers who are accustomed to a petrol scooter’s reliability, and are considering the switch to electric, these questions are important.
