Design & Looks
The electric Punch keeps the rugged, boxy silhouette that made the petrol version popular. Tata has added a few EV‑specific touches – a closed‑front grille, blue‑accented badging and a slightly lower ride height to improve aerodynamics. Inside, the cabin feels familiar but with a new digital instrument cluster that shows battery status, range and charging time.
Performance & Mileage
Under the skin sits a permanent‑magnet motor delivering around 110 hp and 200 Nm of torque. Tata claims an NEDC‑based range of about 300 km on a full charge, which translates to roughly 12‑14 km per kWh in real‑world driving. Fast‑charging at 50 kW can refill the pack from 20 % to 80 % in about 45 minutes.
- Motor: 110 hp, 200 Nm
- Battery: 24 kWh (owned) or 24 kWh (BaaS)
- Estimated range: ~300 km (NEDC)
- Charging: 50 kW fast‑charge, 7‑8 hrs AC
Price & Rivals
Pricing is split into two clear buckets. The Battery‑as‑a‑Service (BaaS) model starts at Rs 6.49 lakh ex‑showroom, letting buyers pay a modest monthly fee for the battery instead of a large upfront cost. If you prefer to own the battery, the price jumps to Rs 9.59 lakh. Both versions sit below the Tata Nexon EV (starting around Rs 14 lakh) and undercut rivals like the Mahindra e‑KUV100.
