The Tata Punch.ev adds to Tata Motors’ electric vehicle stability, marrying the sober, robust design of the Punch SUV with advanced electric powertrain technology. Here’s a detailed look at what it brings to the table.
Tata Punch EV Price Range
The prices of the Tata Punch EV are expected to be competitive, hence making the model accessible to a wide range of consumers. While the price is not very official, it will start from Rs. 10 lakh onward for the base model and upwards to Rs. 13 lakh for the top variants. The pricing strategy, therefore, will make Punch EV an attractive option within the compact EV segment, which promises value for money against its features and performance.
Tata Punch EV Specifications
1. Battery and Range: The Tata Punch EV is available in two different battery packs:
25 kWh Battery Pack: At a full charge, it returns an approximate MIDC range of about 315 km.
35 kWh Battery Pack: The bigger battery option extends this to up to 425 km according to MIDC-pretty well suited for longer drives.
Both variants use Lithium Iron Phosphate cells, which are considered fairly safe and durable. This makes the Punch EV both reliable and efficient for daily duty cycles.
2. Motor and Power Output: The Tata Punch EV has an electric motor mounted on the front. Power output is as follows:
25 kWh Variant: Develops 60 kW, or about 80 hp, developing 114 Nm torque.
The 35 kWh variant returns 90 kW, or about 120 hp, with 190 Nm of torque on offer; it is peppier for those who like a little more punch in their cars. 3. Charging Capabilities:
Fast Charging: Yes, the Punch EV does support DC fast charging, whereby the battery can be brought from 10% to 80% charge in about 56 minutes.
Homocharging: This is accomplished with a 7.2 kW AC fast charger, which would take approximately 3.6 to 5 hours depending on the size of the battery. Besides this is a regular 15A home socket, which completely charges it in about 9.4 to 13.5 hours.
Tata Punch EV Performance
Driving is dynamic, and the Tata Punch EV features three driving modes: Eco, City, and Sport. Sport mode allows this electric motor to swing into full action, enabling quick accelerations that take only 9.34 seconds to reach 100 km/h on the long-range version. The top speed, on the other hand, is limited to 140 km/h through an electronic intervention in the interest of stability and efficiency at higher speeds.
It also gets a multi-level regenerative braking system along with paddle shifters toggled to improve driving efficiency, hence extending the driving range.
Tata Punch EV Interior and Features
Tata Motors has entirely redesigned the interior of Punch EV keeping technology and comfort in mind.
Infotainment and Connectivity: Twin 10.25-inch displays will feature both the instrument cluster and infotainment system. The cabin will offer wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay besides multiple voice assistants like Alexa, Siri, and Google Assistant.
Comfort: The cabin is large and the rear floor is flat since there are batteries downstairs. Ventilated seats, a sunroof, and a 360-degree camera have been added for comfort and convenience at the top end.
Tata Punch EV Safety
Multi airbags, advanced ESP, and dust and waterproof battery packs will make the Punch EV safe for driving around in all kinds of driving.
Practicality, performance, and all the modern features one could want come bundled in one compact and affordable package. The very competitive pricing, along with impressive specifications and performance, may make this a very strong contender in the rapidly growing electric vehicle market in India. Whether it’s just a city-friendly EV you need or a capable compact SUV good for longer journeys, too, the Punch EV is meant to meet a wide range of your needs.
