...ISN'T EASY DESPITE SO MANY PUBLIC CHARGERS INSTALLED ACROSS DELHI NCR

- VIKRAM CHAUDHARY

WITH DELHI readying its most advanced EV policy, how easy is it to live with an electric car in the National Capital Region (NCR)? I spent a couple of weeks with one of India's most popular EVs, the Tata Punch EV, and found that unless you have an EV charger installed at home, living with an EV is not as easy as a petrol/diesel car.

Not yet.

The car The Punch EV has two variants (25-kWh battery and 265 km range), and the LR (long range) version with 35-kWh battery and 365 km range. It's priced from ₹9.99 lakh to ₹14.44 lakh, ex-showroom.

I tested the LR variant.
