Car prices and savings

Now talking about cost and savings, the Tata Punch EV is available with a lifetime warranty. If you are charging at home, the cost will obviously be lower than petrol, thus keeping the monthly running costs down.

On the other hand, the Tata Punch (ICE version) may seem a bit cheap at first. However, regular servicing and especially fuel costs are higher than EVs. Therefore, the ICE model may become more expensive in long-term use.

Which car to buy?

The Punch EV is better suited for customers who use it heavily in the city, want to save on costs and seek a smooth driving experience. Being fully automatic, driving is easy and comfortable.

While the Punch Turbo petrol model is available in manual or AMT options, it doesn’t offer as much power and instant torque as the EV. On the other hand, the Punch ICE can be a good option for long-distance travel, especially where charging facilities are not readily available or for customers who are on a tight budget.

However, the gap between EV and ICE vehicles is decreasing with time. This is also evident when compared to the Punch EV and ICE models.
