Bajaj Chetak C2501 Price in Nepal
About the Bajaj Chetak C2501
Bajaj’s Chetak C2501 brings the Chetak EV story to a more attainable price point, and that makes it particularly interesting for Nepali car buyers considering a second urban runabout or a fuel-saving alternative to their daily drive. With its proven 2.5 kWh electric powertrain, compact footprint and city-focused performance, it aims to cover typical Kathmandu Valley commutes on a single charge while sidestepping rising fuel costs and odd-even restrictions.
Editorial overview compiled from official specs and Nepali/Indian auto sources · as of 04 Aug 2026.
Design & styling
The Chetak C2501 carries forward the familiar rounded, neo-retro silhouette of the Chetak family, but dresses it in simpler graphics and finishes to keep costs in check while still looking premium by scooter standards. Steel body construction and alloy wheels give it a more solid, substantial feel than many plastic-bodied rivals, which will appeal to car owners used to a robust, well-finished exterior. Its compact wheelbase of around 1.2 metres and 763 mm seat height promise easy manoeuvrability in narrow Nepali lanes while remaining approachable for shorter riders and family use. Overall, the design is more understated than flashy Chinese EV scooters, and is likely to resonate with buyers who prefer something mature and brand-backed over attention-grabbing but unproven imports.
Engine & performance
Instead of an engine, the C2501 uses a hub-mounted electric motor fed by a 2.5 kWh lithium-ion battery, a combination chosen to balance cost with usable urban performance. The setup delivers a rated range of about 113 km per charge under IDC test conditions and a claimed top speed in the mid-50 to around 60 km/h band, which positions it clearly as a city and suburban scooter rather than a highway mile-eater. With Eco and Sport riding modes, owners can prioritize efficiency for dense city traffic or sharper response when they need quicker overtakes, and the light kerb weight of roughly 107–108 kg should make the scooter feel brisk off the line even with two aboard. For a car buyer used to smooth automatic transmissions, the Chetak’s single-speed, clutchless drive promises fuss-free operation: push-button start, twist-and-go acceleration and regenerative braking that should feel natural after a short adjustment period.

Is the Bajaj Chetak worth buying?
Many commenters say skip the Chetak because of service issues and manufacturing defects.
What is the mileage of the Bajaj Chetak C2501?
The Chetak C2501 runs a 2.5 kWh battery with a claimed IDC range of about 113 km, though reviewers and owners say normal city riding gives closer to 90–100 km per charge.
What is the price of a Chetak C2501 battery?
No Nepal-specific battery price is published for the Chetak C2501; buyers only have Indian market indications, so in Nepal the cost will depend on local taxes, import, and distributor pricing once it is launched.
“I own a Bajaj Chetak scooter, and I am facing a major battery problem. Do not buy it.”
“sर्भिसिङ रेस्पोन्स राम्रो रहेनछ, कसैले नकिन्नुहोला”
“dont buy chetak c25, all c25 has manufacturing defect. the handle bar is very stiff, you cannot move it freelky left or right when the front wheel is lifted.”

“A Nepali auto article notes that Chetak C2501 offers a 2.5 kWh battery and 113 km IDC range, but points out that another scooter at a similar price in Nepal has more range, power and storage.”
