Tata’s smallest electric SUV is also its best. (Bonus: Kochi’s amazing car culture!)

The Tata Punch EV has been updated — and while it isn’t all-new, it’s significantly better where it actually matters. With a larger battery pack, faster charging (up to 65 kW), improved performance, a lower starting price, and a lifetime (15-year) battery warranty on the 40 kWh variant, the Punch EV now makes an even stronger case as one of India’s best affordable electric cars. In this video, we break down the switch to prismatic cells, Tata’s realistic C75 range figures (355 km for 40 kWh and 275 km for 30 kWh), interior updates, real-world usability, performance improvements, and that new high beam alert feature. And once we’re done with the nerd talk? We head to Kochi to check out some of the coolest enthusiast cars in the country — from 1JZ-swapped BMWs to Polo GTIs and a wild Zen Carbon build. If you’re in the market for a small EV, this might just be the sweet spot.
