David Pieris E-Mobility, the electric vehicle arm of the David Pieris Group, has introduced the Bajaj Chetak Electric to Sri Lanka, reviving one of the country’s most beloved scooter names for a new generation. First seen on local roads in 1978, the Chetak earned a reputation for dependability and trust that endured for decades. Now, after 47 years, it returns reengineered for the electric age.
Designed for urban mobility, the new Chetak features a 3.1 kW hub motor and a 3.5 kWh lithium-ion battery, offering a range of up to 151 km per charge and a top speed of 63 km/h. Its steel unibody construction enhances durability and ride comfort, while a class-leading 35-litre under-seat storage adds everyday convenience.
The scooter comes equipped with premium technology such as a digital display, Bluetooth connectivity, multiple riding modes, Hill Hold Assist with reverse, and smart notifications. Extensive islandwide service support, trained technicians and dedicated facilities ensure easy access for customers, backed by 24/7 roadside assistance.
Having completed over 20,000 km of testing across Sri Lanka, the Bajaj Chetak Electric marks another milestone in the country’s shift towards sustainable, high-quality electric mobility—bringing a trusted icon back, now powered for the future.
