What buyers ask
Which has the better real-world range?
ARAI rates the Punch EV at 421 km and the EX30 at 480 km. Our real-world estimate (~75% of ARAI) puts them at 315 km vs 360 km respectively — the EX30 edges out by 45 km in mixed city + highway driving.
Which is cheaper to own over 5 years?
Both EVs run at roughly ₹1.0–1.5/km, so the 5-year ownership gap is driven by sticker price and depreciation. The Tata Punch EV is ~₹39.00L cheaper to start, which typically translates to ₹1.2–1.5L lower 5-year TCO. Use the TCO calculator for your exact variant.
Which is faster to charge?
Peak DC rate is 50 kW for the Punch EV vs 153 kW for the EX30. 10–80% takes 56 min vs 27 min — the EX30 is faster on a long highway stop.
