It has a new floor pan with better battery and motor integration and this is the architecture that will underpin all future EVs from Tata Motors.
The floor is 20 mm higher and it has a new flatter battery pack underneath. Unlike the earlier Tata EVs which had to make do with whatever space that was left under the rear seat and transmission tunnel area after the fuel tank and exhaust were yanked out, this one allows for better packaging. The Punch in its long range model is 340kilos heavier than the petrol version but has better chassis rigidity and stiffness thanks to the battery pack being a stressed member. The suspension is a bit more raised with a total of 190mm ground clearance. The brakes are beefier and the rear now has disc brakes for better stopping power.
Styling-wise, the Punch EV gets a new front end, similar to the updated Nexon and Harrier, to distinguish itself from the regular variant. There is a new full-width light bar which acts as a DRL, and compact headlamps underneath on the bumper. The charging port is in the middle and opens electrically. The rear styling isn't much different save for the badge and you have a different alloy wheel design.
