Tata Punch EV, Tiago EV Attract Discounts of up to Rs 85,000 in January

The MY2024 and MY2025 stock of the Tata Punch EV and Tiago EV are eligible for the latest discounts, making them more affordable for buyers. 

<p><a href="https://www.autox.com/new-cars/tata/">Tata Motors</a>, the country's leading automotive manufacturer headquartered in Mumbai, has reached an impressive milestone by achieving a domestic&nbsp;sales figure of 20 lakh SUVs. The manufacturer's SUV portfolio currently consists of&nbsp;the ICE-powered Safari, Harrier, Nexon&nbsp;and Punch,&nbsp;along with the electrified Punch&nbsp;and Nexon.&nbsp;</p>

<p>Tata's journey to 20 lakh units began with the launch of the two-door&nbsp;Sierra SUV in 1991. The introduction of the Nexon in 2017 marked the company's entry into the compact SUV segment, further expanding&nbsp;its footprint in the Indian market. Tata's reach extended beyond the compact SUV segment with the sub-compact Punch SUV in the same year. Tata&nbsp;kicked off the EV offensive in India in January 2020 when the company's first zero-emission passenger vehicle – the Nexon EV – was launched to set the tone for its transition to electric mobility in India. Its&nbsp;Punch EV is the youngest electric vehicle from the homegrown automaker. Launched in January 2024,&nbsp;the Punch EV is the 5-star rated vehicle recently tested alongside the Nexon EV by&nbsp;Bharat NCAP.&nbsp;</p>

The all-new Tata Punch.ev is scheduled to go on sale on January 17 in the country. While the price announcement is less than two days away, let's take a closer look at what we know so far:

<p>In India, electric vehicles have become the rage, with nearly every automaker jumping on board.&nbsp;Four-wheeler manufacturers are continuing to gain market share, despite the fact that two-wheeler companies have been growing more rapidly when it comes to the nation's EV sector. However, by introducing a number of electric vehicles in recent years, well-known carmakers like Tata Motors and&nbsp;MG Motor have emerged as&nbsp;popular choices among Indian car buyers. Meanwhile, many other players&nbsp;are now gearing up to put their best foot forward by introducing their brand-new EV offerings&nbsp;in the country. Here's a look at the much-awaited electric car&nbsp;models from a range of prominent brands&nbsp;that are scheduled to hit the Indian market soon.&nbsp;</p>

<h2>Tata Curvv&nbsp;</h2>

<p>The Tata Curvv EV, a concept vehicle unveiled at the 2023 Auto Expo, is another electric vehicle from Tata Motors on this list. As apparent in the concept form, the Curvv EV will have a coupe-like form and a 500–550 km driving range. The new Tata Nexon.ev's styling has been influenced by the Curvv, and both of them have two battery packs—one for medium range and one for long range. The interior of the Tata Curvv EV will likewise be contemporary with cutting-edge tech.&nbsp;</p>

<h2>Mahindra XUV.e8</h2>

<p>With the acquisition of Maini, Mahindra had a significant advantage in the EV market and introduced the Mahindra e2O and e2O Plus, which were India's most reasonably priced electric vehicles. However, Tata emerged victorious and Mahindra failed to introduce any new products for an extended period. Mahindra recently introduced their new EV brand and launched the XUV400 electric SUV.&nbsp;Based on the XUV700, the Mahindra XUV.e8 is expected to be released shortly and has two electric motors and an 80kWh battery pack.</p>

<h2>Tata Punch EV</h2>

<p>Tata Motors is a prominent automobile manufacturer in India, specialising in the production of electric vehicles. The 2023 Nexon.ev is part of the Tata Electric Passenger Cars division, which was recently given a new brand identity by the firm. Furthermore, the Punch EV, which Tata Motors is now planning to introduce to the Indian market, has been seen in camouflage several times. Similar to the Nexon.ev, it will be the most reasonably priced electric SUV in the nation&nbsp;and might come with two battery options.</p>

<h2>Hyundai Kona Electric</h2>

<p>The first electric SUV to be introduced in India was the Kona, a vehicle with a range of more than 450 km, manufactured by Hyundai. The manufacturer&nbsp;later launched&nbsp;the Ioniq 5 hatchback in India, and it currently has plans to expand its lineup of electric vehicles. The new Kona EV and the Ioniq 6 are two of the upcoming models that it will bring to our shores. The E-GMP skateboard platform serves as the foundation for the latest generation Hyundai Kona Electric, which is currently offered in global markets and has a longer battery life.</p>

<h2>Kia EV9</h2>

<p>At the 2023 Auto Expo, Kia debuted the seven-seater Kia EV9 concept. The car was later unveiled for foreign markets and has a stated WLTP cycle driving range of more than 541-kilometre.&nbsp;The Kia EV9 has a commanding presence on the road and boasts&nbsp;ultra-fast 800V charging capability.&nbsp;After the Kia EV6, which is now Kia Motors' flagship vehicle in India, the Kia EV9 will be the largest electric vehicle produced by the South Korean automaker and its second overall.</p>

<h2>BYD Seal</h2>

<p>In India, BYD, the biggest producer of electric vehicles worldwide, presently offers the Atto 3 and the E6 models. The automaker intends to introduce the Seal, which was on display at the Auto Expo earlier this year and is equipped with an 82.5kWh battery pack with a 700-kilometre stated driving range.

There are still several brand-new as well as facelifted&nbsp;car models that are yet to go on sale whether we talk about the Indian&nbsp;or other global markets.&nbsp;Given that November is a festive month, a lot of automakers would want to seize this chance to launch their most awaited vehicles in India earlier than planned. Moreover, a few companies might reveal their new models next month which will formally roll out in the domestic&nbsp;market in December. Here's a list of models that will be available for purchase starting next month&nbsp;along with the ones marking their global debut.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p>

Powered by an electric turbocharger, the M139 hybrid engine is a 2.0-litre four-cylinder unit at its core.&nbsp;This unit, which debuted on the Mercedes-AMG SL 43, is hailed as the first electric exhaust gas turbocharger ever to be installed in a series production vehicle worldwide.</p>

<h2>Tata Punch EV: Anticipated Powertrain</h2>

<p>The Tata Punch EV's battery pack details&nbsp;have not yet&nbsp;been officially confirmed by the automaker but it will most probably&nbsp;use its Ziptron powertrain in the Punch EV.

The larger battery delivers 73bhp and 114Nm of peak torque, compared to the smaller battery's 110Nm and 60bhp of maximum power. Additionally, the entry-level variants of the Tiago EV have a lower battery pack and a 250-kilometre MIDC range, as opposed to higher trims, which feature a larger battery pack and a 315-kilometre MIDC range.

Tata Punch EV Spied Testing with a Bigger Infotainment System in India

The Tata Punch EV has been spotted testing once again ahead of the launch in India. Upon the market introduction, the electric variant of the Punch will lock horns with the Citroen eC3 in the country.

<p><em><strong>Tata Motors is planning to unveil its all-electric compact SUV, the Tata Punch at the upcoming Auto Expo 2023. The Tata Punch EV is set to&nbsp;go into production in June 2023. The SUV will then&nbsp;be launched in the market next year, around the festive period.&nbsp;</strong></em></p>

<p>Tata Motors may launch&nbsp;the all-electric version of the Tata Punch during the Diwali season in 2023, given that this is the period of the year when automobile sales hit record levels. Moreover, the car can&nbsp;come in a variety of trim levels that will fit into various pricing ranges.&nbsp;</p>

<p>The <a href="https://www.autox.com/reviews/car-reviews/tata-tiago-ev-review-first-drive-112062/">Tata</a> Punch EV is intended to be built on a new sigma architecture that is a substantially modified version of the ALFA platform. The same&nbsp;platform is used in the petrol-powered Punch as well as the Altroz hatchback.&nbsp;The firm is believed to make multiple tweaks to the sigma architecture, such as removing the transmission tunnel and modifying the petrol tank area to accommodate a huge battery pack. The platform will also be electrically powered, implying that the car will be lighter, more energy-efficient, and more spacious as compared to&nbsp;a standard&nbsp;ICE car converted to an EV.</p>
