While the Chetak's design remains largely unchanged, there are subtle cosmetic tweaks from the 2023 model. Silver trim elements have been replaced by blacked-out features, including the headlamp surround, indicator surround, grab handle garnish and wheels. The rims also get the ‘Chetak’ decal. The scooter maintains a flat floorboard and a single-piece seat, and it is available in three paint schemes: Brooklyn Black, Indigo Blue, and Hazelnut.
The 2024 Chetak Premium is equipped with a new 5-inch TFT display for the instrument cluster. Unlike its predecessor, there's only one ride mode, Eco, for the standard Chetak Premium variant. The standard package includes a reverse mode and a low tyre pressure alarm.
The TecPac is an optional package that elevates the Chetak Premium's features. With a glut of additions, the TecPac transforms the monochrome display into a colour screen, providing turn-by-turn navigation, music controls, call alerts, and customisable themes. Hill-hold control and an additional ‘Sport’ ride mode are also part of this package.

The Chetak Premium boasts a larger 3.2 kWh battery pack, an upgrade from the previous 2.9 kWh. This enhancement extends the range from 108 km to 127 km, as per ARAI certification. The top speed has also been increased from 63 kmph to 73 kmph. The scooter retains its 800 W on-board charger, capable of adding 15.6 km of range with just a 30-minute charge.
Bajaj has priced the new Chetak Premium at Rs 1.35 lakh (ex-showroom). Compared to the recently introduced Chetak Urbane, the updated Premium model commands a premium of approximately Rs 20,000. Opting for the TecPac package further bumps the cost to Rs. 1.44 lakh (both prices, ex-showroom).
