Modern Design
While the Punch EV is based on its ICE (internal combustion engine) counterpart, the Tata Punch, its design language is notably different. The Punch EV has taken its design inspiration from the Nexon EV, which includes the bonnet-spanning LED DRLs, vertical LED projector headlights, and aerodynamic alloy wheels. The rear profile is similar to the petrol-powered Punch with a chunky bumper, skid plate and the same tail lights.
