Bajaj Auto Addresses Isolated Chetak Scooter Incident, Emphasizes Customer Safety

December 10th, 2024, Pune - An incident involving a Chetak electric scooter was reported in the afternoon hours of the 5th of December at Chattrapati Sambhaji Nagar, (Aurangabad). As soon as this was brought to our attention, the dealer partner took swift action by moving the vehicle to the service centre for a thorough investigation. The incident resulted in no harm to any individuals.


Preliminary investigations reveal that while there was no fire or thermal runaway, the event was limited to smoke emission from a plastic component, with the battery and motor remaining intact. The materials used in the battery pack ensured the safety of the vehicle even under such a condition.
