Tata Motors has recently announced enhancements to its popular Punch EV model via an official post on X. The update includes two new exterior color variants: Pure Grey and Supernova Copper. These additions expand the lineup, offering buyers more choices for personalization—Pure Grey provides a sophisticated, understated look ideal for urban environments, while Supernova Copper delivers a vibrant, eye-catching finish that stands out on the road.
Beyond the aesthetic upgrades, Tata has optimized the charging performance for the Punch EV's 35kWh battery pack, now supporting a 1.2C rate at compatible fast-charging stations. For context, the "C" rating refers to the charge rate relative to the battery's capacity; a 1C rate would theoretically charge a 35kWh battery in one hour at 35kW. At 1.2C, this translates to approximately 42kW of peak power, enabling quicker replenishment—real-world data indicates a 20% to 80% charge in about 33 minutes, making it more convenient for longer journeys.
This charging improvement was first highlighted by the Tesla Club India account on X, which shared early insights including charging curves peaking at around 43kW. Their analysis provided valuable previews ahead of Tata's formal confirmation, underscoring the role of community-driven discussions in the EV space.
For those considering an electric vehicle that balances affordability, style, and efficiency, the refreshed Punch EV presents a compelling option. Interested buyers can explore these features at Tata dealerships or on ElecTree for detailed specifications.
