How does the Tata Punch EV perform, compared to its ICE counterpart, in real life?

The EV performs great, but you’ll be able to go further on the ICE version. There is no range anxiety or charging stops to worry about.

That lower centre of gravity means the Punch EV handles better. It seems more planted in corners than the ICE version.

The EV’s silent, smooth acceleration is something I love. This makes the ICE version look outdated.

The version of ICE is more versatile. Long trips are one thing you can't beat the convenience of quick refueling for.

Different driving modes on the EV make it more flexible to deal with different conditions. In comparison, the ICE version feels one dimensional.
What are India’s diverse climate conditions like for the Tata Punch EV?

Indian summers are handled pretty well by the Punch EV. AC is powerful without killing the battery and range drop isn’t as bad as I thought.

In peak Delhi summer, I have seen a big range drop. The heat is frustrating when you can't get within coo of the advertised range.

It appears that the thermal management system works well. I’ve not seen any unusual battery degradation even after fast charging in hot weather.

In cold North Indian winters, it struggles a bit. It takes a hit on range and the cabin takes longer to warm up than an ICE car.

Great ground clearance for Mumbai roads during monsoons. There were no worries about water getting to the battery.

If only Tata had added a heat pump to be more efficient in cold weather. That's a missed opportunity to improve winter performance.

It has an impressive climate control system. It won’t drain your battery too much but still keeps a comfortable temperature.

Planning long trips is hard due to the range variability in different weather conditions. You have to be more conservative with your estimates.

I like the fact that the AC cools the cabin so fast, compared to my old ICE car. This is perfect for those hot summer days.
So is the ADAS system on the Tata Harrier actually useful in Indian driving conditions?
24 December 2024 12:34
And I have used the Harrier’s ADAS on highways and it works surprisingly well. In moderate traffic, the adaptive cruise control works great and the lane keep assist is useful on well to mark roads. It's a good start for Indian conditions, not perfect by any means.

24 December 2024 12:34
I think the ADAS features are more stressful than helpful for city driving. Our chaotic traffic and unpredictable road users confuse the system. I basically turn off most features and just use them on highways.

I drive long distances often and the Harrier’s ADAS is welcomed. It's not designed to eliminate attentive driving, but it does increase safety. The key is to know its limitations, and use it properly.

Tata jumped the gun with ADAS, I think. But our roads and driving culture aren’t ready for it yet. The feature feels more like a marketing gimmick than a real useful feature in day to day driving.

On the Harrier, the ADAS is a mixed bag. Features such as the blind spot detection are really useful, whereas with features like lane keep assist you can get hit or miss. It’s a step in the right direction, but there’s still room for improvement.

The Harrier's ADAS feels like a game changer, coming from a car with no driver assists. No, it is not perfect in all situations but it has made me feel safer on the road. The technology is all about adapting.
