Is the new floorboard mounted battery on the Bajaj Chetak 3501 a game changer or just a gimmick?
The new Chetak 3501 from Bajaj has caused some interesting discussions among electric scooter enthusiasts over Bajaj's decision to move the battery pack from under the seat to the floorboard. The design change that has resulted in dramatically increased under seat storage space, up to an impressive 35 liters. It also throws up questions about weight distribution, handling and ride quality. It's a clever use of space according to some, but others worry about the effect of the change on the scooter's center of gravity. But there's also debate over whether this change makes the scooter less stable in wet conditions or when you're taking a sharp turn. Some riders are also worried about the battery being exposed to road debris and splashes of water. This is a hot topic in the EV community as people argue the pros and cons of this unconventional design choice.
It’s a definitely a game changer! As a daily commuter, it is a godsend to have extra storage space. Finally I can fit a helmet and a small bag of groceries under the seat. It also feels more stable at higher speeds, plus.
