Tata Punch EV has received its much-awaited facelifted iteration, which comes with a plethora of changes across the exterior and interior. Also, the powertrain has been upgraded with a bigger battery pack and improved range per charge cycle. The electric SUV has been launched immediately after the launch of the Maruti Suzuki e Vitara, another much-awaited electric SUV that is the first-ever electric car from the country’s numero uno carmaker.

If you have been mulling the idea of buying an affordable electric SUV and now, with the launch of the Tata Punch EV facelift and Maruti Suzuki e Vitara, shortlisted both the EVs, but are feeling confused about which one to select, here is a quick and comprehensive comparative look at the variant-wise price list of both the electric SUVs to help you decide better.
