Tata Punch EV Facelift Pros and Cons in India 2026

PROS:

• The range figures are improved now, all thanks to a larger 30 kWh and 40 kWh battery packs which will provide more usable real-world range numbers as compared to the older model.
• The top-spec model is now equipped with dual 10.25-inch screens (Touchscreen + Cluster), 360-Degree Camera, Wireless Android Auto/Apple CarPlay, and Ventilated seats.

• Well-designed and practical cabin with enough space to accommodate 4 adults.
• Comfortable suspension on bad roads, and inclusion of 6 airbags, ESP, and Electronic parking brake with Auto-Hold as standard.
• The 6-Speaker Harman Audio System is just a blessing for ears as it is easily one of the best audio systems in this price point.
• The electric motor now produces 128 BHP and 154 Nm of torque, which is 7 BHP more than the predecessor.

• Sorted road manners and rock-solid stability especially at high speeds.

CONS:

• The interior quality and overall fit and finish is not up to the mark and still could be improved.
• There is a limited rear space as the cabin width is quite narrow making the seats ideal for two occupants rather than three. The rear headroom is also limited which just obstructs the view.
• The top-end variants are super expensive and are coming in the price bracket of larger segment cars like Tata Nexon, making it quite expensive for its size. 

• There is a lack of various features like rear A/C vents, which are essential especially in hot climates.
• The suspension is quite stiff due to the R16 variants. Although it is livable, bad roads are experienced in the car.
• Tata’s after-sales quality remains a gamble, as there is a probability of issues and niggles.
