Tata coming with prismatic cells in punch is astonishing. They have come with an amazing price as well. It is better than Windsor and even Nexon 45. With kerb weight now aligned 55% on the front the steering response will be top notch as well. At 10.89 lakh for 40kWh pack is a market killer. Punch top is 12.59 lakh and Windsor begins at 14 lakh. This is also a price cut from their previous lineup. Which company offers upgrades but at a reduced price. Tata has taken market with storm.

New Punch EV is a market killer

I agree. Punch has taken me by surprise as well. I expected a price rise when I saw the first advert of range test. This will take EV adoption to the next level. The battery rental at 6.49L is totally unexpected. At 2.6 per km rate this is better than Punch petrol.

I was thinking of purchasing Windsor but now I am more inclined for Punch. As a single driver, it solves my purpose. I also saw Suhail's video of Punch city efficiency. Now with greater battery and range this does make a compelling argument to support make in India.

Do not go for Windsor at all. It does not have a good drive in the city and lot of issues which I have faced. I drive a Nexon as well. Tata's driving is exponentially better. I too am thinking of replacing my Windsor with Punch now.

Windsor is a very poor product in my opinion. Apart from space the car is not worth it. Us Indians just go by our eyes and not our brain. Because our neighbor got a Windsor then I should get one is the mentality. Punch will be a market leader. It will surpass the Nexon sales. Just wait for 3 months after the delivery.

I agree. Windsor is not worth it. Sell it and buy a Punch or even eVitara. Much better options. Test drove the eVitara recently. It drives well if that is the main requirement.

I have registered interest as well for the new Punch EV. Glad to see that EV community is praising this launch. This increases my belief in the product as this will be my first EV.

Great choice.

Hybrids are the future. Tata will launch their hybrids too because they know EV business is not doing well.

Do you think baas will work? I know the price is less but the model in itself has not proved to be successful. Windsor failed miserably with baas.

Baas is not a successful model mainly because when initial price is 10 lakh then no one wants to pay a running cost. But at 6.5 lakh and running cost of 2.6 per km. Add 1 rupee for home charging then 3.6 per km is cheaper than petrol. Say you drive 1 lakh km overall then your car cost 10 lakh in total. We need to see finer prints like minimum run etc, but this baas makes sense to me.

I agree the pricing is good. But I still prefer Windsor. Better finishing, premium features and no critical error concerns. If for 2 years Tata EVs show no issues only then I will be convinced of risking buying a Tata car.

Monumental hardware upgrades + Price reduction will turn out to be a killer combination in the segment which has the most potential towards mass adoption in India
