The Tata Punch.ev has been positioned below the Nexon.ev and will rival the Citroen eC3.

Tata Motors has launched the first-ever Punch.ev in the Indian market. It is available in five variants with prices starting at Rs 10.99 lakh (ex-showroom).

The Tata Punch.ev looks similar to its ICE version. However, there are some design elements that make it easier to differentiate the EV from the Punch petrol. These include a cleaner front fascia with a blanked-out grille, a continuous LED light bar and an updated front bumper similar to the Nexon facelift.

The rear though, hasn’t changed much. That being said, the Punch.ev does get new aero-designed alloy wheels and a charging port positioned at the front.

Inside, the Punch.ev gets a 10.25-inch touchscreen infotainment system with wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, a digital instrument cluster, automatic climate control and a 2-spoke steering wheel with an illuminated Tata logo. The car also gets an electronic parking brake, a 360-degree camera, a blind spot monitor and a sunroof.

The Punch.ev is available with two battery options. These include a 25 kWh battery pack with an ARAI-certified range of 315 km. It powers an electric motor that makes 80 BHP and 114 Nm.

The LR (Long Range) version comes with a 35 kWh unit that can cover 421 km on a single charge. It powers an electric motor with an output of 120 BHP and 190 Nm.
