@@siddhantdas33 aero matters... But more so after 60km/h. So dont expect huge difference in real world range if Altroz ev comes out. Maybe on the highways but not in day to day driving
I believe EV was what was needed for the punch. I sold off the petrol powered Punch within a year of buying it. Just because of the petrol engine. It was weak and very thirsty. But the vehicle was otherwise superb. Very quite cabin. Good and comfortable seats. Very well sorted out suspensuin set up. Very capable handling and road holding. The chasis was very competent and gives very good confidence on hilly roads. No thuds Or klunks while going over bad roads/no roads. And the Punch looks just so good and appealing. But the storage space was as much a joke as in a mahindra XUV 300. With the EV version, the Punch definetly is a superb package if one is not travelling long distances with too many people on board. Punch can accomodate 3 people and their stuff for travelling. Anymore, and you will have a hard time loading your full lugggage.
I canceled my booking after test driving punch.ev, the lag in the dial knob is too much that I got embarrassed in traffic taking out the car from parked onto the road, it hanged and I had to restart car twice. 👎
I like the last extra Scene touch … that’s cool … Other than that .. i guess punch is now a smart looking car and it’s best for city only .. so even the small range version is the best option!
I had test drive just today 23/2/24 It is an incredible car in every respect ❤❤ I just love it. It also works like 4x4. And always all wheel driver. Super. Car
Humm using tiago ev mr xt 10729km it's better compare to ice engine But many drawbacks 1.range is low true range 60-70% claimed range proper range need to be near ice one but that depend on battery energy density 2. No proper charger network even no single app like google map to locate charger and use it for every company need separate app . 3. No .Spare and service outside company network no one wanna touch ev for even minor work .Depends completely on company 4. ev electronic and electrical spare parts are sensitive slight problem cause vehicle to stop working technology for real bad road weather conditions need robust parts 5. Price is more or almost double than ice one
When doing real world range test, please pack the car with people and luggage if possible.. The Extreme levels give a good indication about the range.. just a driver and a cameraman sitting will not give real range considering its a family car.. One hour packed car drive is enough to give an idea about the range..
TATA Should combine the lower power motor with the 35kWh Battery pack to increase the practical range. It will reduce cost also. No need for that much power & torque in city conditions. Customers will like that combination.
I travel to Indore from Bhopal thrice in a month which is 200km one side! Rest of the time I drive in city! Saal mein ek baar I travel with family to a max of 600 kms for a vacation by road! I feel it will still make sense to me! But will it make sense if I sell by 7 year old diesel car to buy this? Seeing diesel has no future ahead & jitna late karunga resale bhi nahi milega! Upfront cost phir zyada padegi aagey chal ke! Correct me if m wrong
The best case if you're keeping environment in mind is to keep using the car you have for as long as you can. Switching from an active car is not worth the money, as well as for the environment. In my opinion, 7 years is good, but it might easily last for 5 more years. Resale value might take a hit but you would've saved a lot more in comparison. I've got nexon ev, it's 1 lakh km old now. But I've kept my Honda brio as well.
In EVs, it's just a matter of software so they might introduce it if enough people request it directly. Motors are already great at applying torque aptly in snow.
After ambassador and Premier Padmini era, Maruti Suzuki 800 1983 revolutionized car market. Since 2022 in Indian market TATA (Tata Passenger Electric Mobility Ltd) motors revolutionized EV sale. Henceforth it seems the era EVs.
They might not introduce as its price would be similar to punch ev and people would buy punch ev instead bcoz of high ground clearance and its compact suv like built.

I think the motor is the same. The bigger battery enables the motor to generate more power (higher V or A or both going to the motor). You're gonna see this a lot in EVs going forward where motors will be the same but bigger battery version will have more power. If they do 82/35 version, they will software limit the motor and nothing else so why not let the user have the power.
A request to Autocar and other auto journos, please start using Metric units for power(kW), it never made any sense to keep using hp, an archaic unit, whereas every other unit is measured in metric, it especially doesn't make sense for EVs, since battery capacity, charging rate are already in kWh and kW. For 2 wheelers, the use of kW for EVs have already become mainstream, and ozzies already use kW for all kinds of cars(including ICE), so please move forward and start using kW, you can always put the HP figure on screen for backward compatibility.

This is not true, I am 5 feet 11 inch and have tried the rear seats already. Brilliant car with adequate space. The sloping at the back is really good. I felt there is a problem with the new creta rear space.
None of them have power per say but the difference lies in how the engine delivers power , the Hyundai engine and gearbox is much smoother and adequate for city speeds , the clutch action is easy thus making it easier to live with in day to day traffic.
And how many people will buy one or can actually afford to buy one in India? Also built quality and part availablity of Tesla cars is not good enough atleast for India rn. they have to build their manufacturing facilities to cost low or even similar to their home market.

I found the Nexon as my dream car but it was expensive hence will go for punch. Thank you TATA can't ask anything better for 12 lakhs
I've booked it, but was in 2 minds to pick it or not. I'm 75% there now !
What other car are you in two mind's with?

Punch any day as it is born electric and drive is way better

Like Nexon EV
What to do incase of a flat tyre? How do we address that without a spare wheel?
Most of the Indian Manufacturers lags on Snow Mode terrain.. while charging so much they should think..
In EVs, it's just a matter of software so they might introduce it if enough people request it directly. Motors are already great at applying torque aptly in snow.
I don't really give a f. to how fast it is, the point is how free from petrol you are and how expensive it is to get one

The price should have kept little lower not really worth for 11 lakhs starting and upto 16 lakhs otherwise it is a best option for city commuter

Thank you.
Great review
Long range wala how much km come to on road
Is this Acti.EV architecture a new platform for the Punch?
Not a completely new platform but it's a new electrical and electronics architecture and a massive re-engineering of the entire body shell.
Very good review ❤
Feels like paid promotion not single demerit about this car which full of panel gaps
Great review 💐
Does this get the Traction Pro mode?
why ev is costly? if we see Petrol base model of punch its price is 6 lakh, n ev 11 lakh, so does battery pack cost 4-5 lakh 😱.....
the real world range would be 250km to 300km.
Very well packed car
No spare tyre like Tiago. Good luck with puncture repair kit.
We need dark edition soon..
Give me the same EV package with Altroz please !
9.5s to 100km/h is really slow for a ev
looks like the front side has been punched design wise....
