A few days ago, the Tata Punch EV was spotted testing, bearing closeness to its current ICE version. Recently, it has been caught on camera once again, but this time it dons a few design changes, both outside and inside the car, hinting at the facelift version of the Punch EV. Here are more details: –
New Design and Features
- Going by the latest spy images, the electrified Punch is likely to get a different design for the alloys from its ICE version.
- The EV will also get rear disc brakes.
- The test mule in new spy images also seems to have a slightly different bumper design.
- Similar to Tata’s EV concepts, it is also expected to get a connected LED strip below the bonnet, covering the width of the car.
