The Tata Punch Flex Fuel Concept was recently unveiled in the 2025 India Mobility Expo. Tata Motors has taken a huge leap towards a greener future for Indian automobiles with this launch. Since it will run on both petrol and ethanol, this ground-breaking model, set upon the Punch platform, is also expected to take us closer to achieving de-fossil fuels dependence.
A Blend of Sustainability and Familiarity
The Punch Flex Fuel retains the known design and tough build quality of its petrol counterpart, so it will not disturb consumers in this regard. The under-hood is a modified 1.2-liter petrol engine that easily handles the corrosive properties of ethanol. Therefore, the vehicle can run on E85, which is 85% ethanol and 15% petrol, and pure E100 ethanol, for maximum flexibility and environmental benefit.
Performance That Doesn’t Compromise
But whatever the engine and its modifications might be, this Punch Flex Fuel still has an energetic performance for its petrol brother, delivering punchy 86 bhp, plus 115 Nm of torque. This helps ensure lively drive without sacrificing some efficiency and sustainability benefits of ethanol. The diversity of driver needs will be provided by offering Flex Fuel with two transmission options-the 5-speed manual and automated manual transmission (AMT). Smooth and effortless shifts are expected between gears.
What is Flex Fuel, Anyway
Flex fuel cars like the Tata Punch are designed to run on a mixture of ethanol and petrol. Ethanol, which is a biofuel produced from plants such as sugarcane and maize, has several benefits over regular petrol. By using ethanol, the Punch Flex Fuel contributes to: Lower Greenhouse Gas Emissions: Ethanol is a cleaner-burning fuel than petrol, which reduces the release of harmful pollutants into the environment. Improved Air Quality: Lower emissions lead to cleaner air, thus positively impacting the environment and human health. Improved Energy Security: Utilizing a locally produced biofuel such as ethanol can help reduce India’s dependency on imported fossil fuels.
The Future of Green Mobility in India
The Tata Punch Flex Fuel marks a major step forward for India in its sustainable mobility journey. With this practical and affordable option for an eco-friendly driver, Tata Motors is paving the way for a greener future on Indian roads. More flex fuel vehicles will hit the market as production and infrastructure in ethanol continue to develop, and this will present consumers with greater choices and help create a cleaner and healthier environment.
