Top 5 Updates You Cant Miss on the 2026 Tata Punch EV Facelift

Okay, let me start straight Tata Motors finally launched the facelifted Punch EV in India. About time, right? And yes, it’s not just a face-lift, there’s more to it. Price? With BaaS, ₹6.49 lakh. Without BaaS, ₹9.69 lakh. Looks tempting for anyone thinking EVs seriously. Trust me, I’ve been in this space long enough to say it’s worth a look.

1. Refreshed Design

Man, the first thing you notice is the front. Clean. Modern. No more black strip they went body-coloured. Headlamps shifted slightly, LED DRLs now connected. Bumper? Small tweak. Side profile now rocks 16-inch aero-optimised alloys. Rear lights got that connected strip vibe. I remember driving the old Punch EV. Felt boxy, meh. This one? Feels alive. Feels confident. Like Nexon EV vibes, but smaller. And haan, it turns heads in traffic. Not kidding.

2. Updated Colour Palette

Colours matter, right? first Empowered Oxide, Seaweed, Daytona Grey, Fearless Red, Pristine White, Supernova Copper, Pure Grey. Safe. Predictable. Facelift adds Fearless Yellow, Bengal Rouge, Caramel. Boom. Seven total. I was at a showroom last week, someone literally stopped to check Fearless Yellow. Seriously. Small detail, big impression. City roads will never look boring again.

3. Revised Interior

Step inside, and it’s a different vibe. 10.25-inch touchscreen, thinner bezel. 7-inch fully digital cluster. Dual-spoke steering wheel with illuminated logo. Touch-based controls on centre console. Leatherette, dual-tone dashboard. Feels premium. I hopped into a friend’s facelift said out loud Finally, a cabin that feels modern. Small gripe? Rear space still tight for tall folks. But honestly, the interior makes the car feel bigger than it is.

4. New Features

Gadgets. Love ’em or hate ’em, they matter. Touch HVAC, front ventilated seats, electronic parking brake, paddle shifters for regen, auto-dimming IRVM, 360-degree camera. Funny story my friend tried the 360-degree camera in a tight parking spot. He goes No stress now. True story. Small updates like these make city driving stress-free. And yeah, sometimes it’s the small things that matter most.

5. Upgraded Powertrain and Performance

Batteries upgraded. 30 kWh and 40 kWh packs now, up from 25 kWh and 35 kWh. Range? 335–468 km depending on battery. Drove it around the city realistic, no surprises. Highway? Keep expectations grounded. Paddle shifters and regen braking make it slightly fun. Honestly, driving feels a bit more engaging than before. Small improvements, but noticeable.
