About
Located in a central area of Bengaluru, this facility serves customers interested in electric vehicle options. Prospective buyers often find it useful to take advantage of the test-drive experience to assess the vehicle's real-world performance. When viewing different models, customers can inquire about the range figures under varied driving conditions and how the different variants handle acceleration. Comparing the performance metrics across available trims helps in determining the most suitable fit for daily commuting needs.

Bajaj ownership in Karnataka
Bajaj Chetak (₹1.0L–₹1.5L) — premium build quality, sold through both Bajaj and dedicated Chetak experience centres.
If you're buying through Chetak International, the on-road price you'll be quoted is the ex-showroom price plus road tax, registration, and insurance. Karnataka offers: 100% Road Tax waiver for EVs priced below ₹25 Lakhs. 10% tax applies to luxury EVs above ₹25 Lakhs.. (For comparison, the green tax on petrol/diesel vehicles in Karnataka is ₹500 (Fixed for personal vehicles >15 yrs) — buying an EV avoids this entirely for the life of the vehicle.)
Central FAME-III incentives stack on top — typically ₹10,000 to ₹17,500 for electric two-wheelers and up to ₹1.5 lakh for electric cars above 50 kW capacity. A good dealer like Chetak International will calculate the exact post-subsidy price during the test drive and handle the paperwork.
What to check before booking
- Confirm on-road price (ex-showroom + RTO + insurance + extended warranty)
- Ask about the FAME-III subsidy and any Karnataka-level incentive — most dealers process these for you
- Verify the 8-year / 1.6 lakh km battery warranty document, in writing
- Test-drive at peak traffic and on a highway — performance differs significantly from petrol equivalents
- Confirm home-charging installation cost, including the cabling run from your meter to the parking spot
- Check service centre proximity — most EVs have lower service intervals (15,000 km vs petrol's 10,000 km) but require a brand-trained technician

How long does an EV battery last?
Modern lithium-ion EV batteries are warrantied for 8 years / 1.6 lakh km by most manufacturers in India, retaining 70–80% of capacity at end of warranty. Real-world data from Tata, MG, and Hyundai owners shows actual degradation of ~3% per year for typical Indian driving patterns.
What about charging in Bengaluru?
Bengaluru has a growing public-charging network across Karnataka. Most Bajaj buyers install a 7.4 kW home wallbox (₹40,000 – ₹60,000 installed) which covers 95% of daily use. For long-distance, the Tata Power EZ Charge, Statiq, Ather Grid and ChargeZone apps map all public CCS2 + Type 2 chargers.
