Bajaj Gifts Chetak C25 Electric Scooters to RCB Women’s T20 Squad

Bajaj Auto Honors RCB Women’s Championship Win with Chetak C25 Gifts

In a significant gesture of appreciation for sporting excellence, Bajaj Auto has announced that it will gift the newly launched Chetak C25 electric scooter to every member of the Royal Challengers Bangalore (RCB) Women’s T20 cricket team. This move celebrates the team’s historic victory in securing the Women’s T20 League title.

Recognition of Championship Performance

The initiative serves as a formal recognition of the squad’s outstanding performance throughout the championship season. While it is a common industry practice for car manufacturers to gift vehicles to successful cricketers, the presentation of the Chetak C25 marks a rare instance of a two-wheeler being awarded to an entire title-winning team.

Beyond the gift, the association between the two entities was deep-rooted during the tournament, as the Bajaj Chetak C25 served as the official ride partner for the RCB squad during their T20 matches.
