Tata Punch EV to get more features interior upgrades

Tata Punch EV

The Tata Punch EV has been spotted testing again. This time, interestingly, the Punch EV dons new alloy wheels and has new interior bits. 

  1. Tata Punch EV to also get 360-degree camera
  2. Will rival Citroen eC3, MG Comet
  3. Punch EV will get disc brakes on all wheels

The spy shots suggest that the Punch EV will get a different design for the alloy wheels compared to the ICE-powered Punch. The new test mules of the electric Punch will get a five-spoke design, whereas older ones had the same design as the ICE punch. The new test car was again seen with disc brakes for the rear wheels. 

Tata Punch EV interior and features

Inside, the biggest change in the Punch EV is likely to be Tata Motors’ new two-spoke steering wheel, first showcased on the Curvv Concept and also seen on the upcoming Nexon facelift’s test mules. This steering wheel will get an illuminated logo in the centre and haptic touch controls. 

The Punch EV will also get a 360-degree camera, as the images show camera modules on the wing mirrors. Currently, only the Harrier and Safari get a 360-degree camera in Tata Motors’ line-up. 

The previous spy images of the Punch EV showed that it will get a rotary drive selector, which is also available on the Nexon EV Max. If it does get that, it will also likely get an electronic parking brake from the Nexon EV Max. 

The Punch EV’s test mule can be seen with the 7-inch touchscreen infotainment system, the same unit that does duty on the ICE version. It remains to be seen when Tata Motors will add its new 10.25-inch touchscreen to the Punch. 

Tata Punch EV powertrain 

In our previous report, we mentioned that the Punch EV is likely to use Tata Motors’ Ziptron powertrain that has a liquid-cooled battery with a permanent magnet synchronous motor powering the front wheels. However, the exact battery and electric motor specifications are not known yet. Tata Motors could offer multiple battery pack options to appeal to a wider audience, as it already does on the Tiago EV, Tigor EV and Nexon EV. 

Tata Punch EV launch timeline, rivals

The Punch EV is could be launched in the upcoming festive season. Upon launch, it will rival the Citroen eC3 (Rs 11.50 lakh- 12.43 lakh) and the MG Comet (Rs 7.78 lakh-9.98 lakh).
