Tata Punch EV

The Tata Punch EV is powered by a 40 kWh battery pack, which is larger than the earlier 35 kWh unit, offering improved performance and efficiency.

Tata states that the new battery is denser, more thermally stable, and better suited for varying climate conditions, enhancing overall reliability.

This setup delivers 127 bhp and 154 Nm of torque, ensuring a responsive and smooth driving experience.

The Punch EV offers an ARAI-certified range of up to 468 km, along with a claimed real-world (C75) range of around 355 km.

Charging is quick and convenient, with a 65 kW DC fast charger capable of charging from 20% to 80% in just 26 minutes. Additionally, a 15-minute quick charge can provide up to 135 km of range.

To enhance driving dynamics, the car features multiple regenerative braking levels controlled via paddle shifters, along with three driving modes—Eco, City, and Sport. Together, these offer up to 12 driving combinations to balance efficiency, performance, and control.

Best for first-time EV buyers who want a 5-star NCAP electric car with 421 km ARAI range, Level 2 ADAS, panoramic sunroof, and 6 airbags at the most accessible price for a safe, feature-rich EV in India — the Punch EV is the most compelling affordable EV case in India.
