The 40 kWh battery also brings with it a more powerful electric motor with peak output rising from 121 bhp in the outgoing Punch EV LR to 127 bhp. Tata claims a sub-9 sec 0-100 kmph time. As before the Punch EV will come with three drive modes and four regen modes. Tata claims a kerb weight of 1360 kg for the Punch EV.
Cosmetically, the Punch EV borrows some styling elements from its internal combustion sibling. The split headlamp design is retained with the LED DRL design marginally different from the units on the ICE Punch. The EV also gets a cleaner bumper design with lighter cladding than its ICE sibling and only a large intake vent at the base of the bumper. The headlamps look to be further in-set than in the outgoing model, though they still feature within angular housings on the bumper.
