Design
The Tata Punch EV shares a design resemblance with the internal combustion engine-powered Punch SUV, but being an electric vehicle, it incorporates distinctive elements setting it apart from its ICE counterpart.
Notably, the Punch EV's front profile stands out with a closed-off panel, eliminating the need for a traditional radiator grille. The sleek LED light bar, serving as the daytime running light, spans the width of the car and is positioned at the bonnet's edge. Changes in the headlamp design and a unique front bumper further differentiate the Punch EV from the ICE model. Expect variations in the side and rear profiles of the electric SUV compared to its internal combustion engine counterpart.
Features
Tata Motors has not disclosed specific features of the electric SUV. Nonetheless, the upcoming Punch EV will utilize the acti.ev architecture, a dedicated EV platform that touts an improved digital cockpit experience. The platform is also said to offer ADAS L2+ capability, 5G connectivity, and bi-directional charging, allowing the vehicle to charge other devices and engage in vehicle-to-vehicle charging. Additionally, the Punch EV is expected to support over-the-air (OTA) software updates and feature cloud connectivity.
Powertrain
The Tata Punch EV is committed to delivering a range of approximately 300 kilometers on a single charge. However, specific information regarding its power, torque, and top speed remains undisclosed. The SUV will be equipped with a 3.3 kW wall box charger, and the Long Range variant will be accompanied by a 7.2 kW fast home charger.
