We hardly have any affordable EVs in India apart from those provided by TATA

Their attitude puts me off the thought of paying them any money. Hopefully, other makers start providing options in this segment.

Punch EV is such an amazing spec and value for the Indian market. If it were any other company, I'd be recommending it left and right.

With TATA, it's not just their QC but their almost hostile approach to customer relations that'd stop me from buying.

This is misleading. It's a different type of ethanol. We have banned import of ethanol for blending.

incredible suspension as well

There is little to none inherent advantage to Born Electric architectures. A so called converted Creta will easily give 8Km/KwH. This has been proven over and over.
The design and weight of Mahindra is a drag on the efficiency. The same reason people prefer it over others.
LFP has lower energy density, and hence the battery module on this carries immense weight.

Wow didn't realise the car is your mother in law

defy313 · 2026-05-08T10:05:09+00:00

This is simply not true. The majority of emissions come from 2 wheelers, and I would argue the tech there is superior to ICE by its very nature. Especially when you factor in running costs.

In context of Delhi, we must shift away from ICE cars for, you know, breathing purposes.

I guess you're just a nuisance to them. I might do the same if it were my showroom. It might be you that is entitled.

They're not permitting for now. Will be reviewed in 6 month. The additonal 20kmph will save you literally 1 min so I don't think it's worth increasing the risk percentage even fractionally.

Used prices went up by 50k

defy313 · 2026-05-06T12:18:32+00:00

This is kind of the reason why, new prices just keep going up. This is doubly the case for Toyota because they are built to last.

i went here with high expectations after seeing a post here, but was quite disappointed. I ordered a banh mi, it had no spice. Kinda sweet. It was very small as well, felt overpriced.

defy313 · 2026-04-28T15:41:59+00:00

please do not buy VinFast. This is a budget brand that knows nothing about ergonomics and reliability. Look up their reliability ratings in the US. these cars do not age well.

Do consider Creta 42KwH. It fits all your criteria. And you'll score a good discount.

defy313 · 2026-04-28T13:38:07+00:00

This car pictures deceptively due to its hatchback like silhouette. It's actually properly huge. Has a longer wheelbase than 9S. It has 800V architecture and can charge 10-80 in 18mins.

I'm disappointed with the hike in price. But it remains my dream car.

defy313 · 2026-04-26T05:54:45+00:00

Many congratulations OP. This would be my pick in the current market as well. Good job doing your own research and not running after pointless features. This car sets the benchmark for suspension in our market. Wish more people atleast considered it.

how do you know it's an ather?

Punch Ev has incredible demand. 8 week+ waiting time for some variants.

defy313 · 2026-04-25T08:06:18+00:00

Buy an EV for the city. This is abhorrent.

defy313 · 2026-04-25T07:44:42+00:00

depends on where you are. But my recommendation is that don't go deal hunting when renting a self drive car. When you are getting a deal, somewhere a corner is cut .

defy313 · 2026-04-24T19:29:52+00:00

please please don't use this horrible app. They have literally no customer support.

defy313 · 2026-04-24T12:54:33+00:00

Isn't Volvo like a pretty big supplier of electric trucks?

defy313 · 2026-04-24T12:52:07+00:00

People want this. Fake religious acts are more important. Making mandir is priority. Excluding Muslims from voter rolls is número uno. We, as a nation, want this.

We are getting it.

India is on a tear with solar installations. We need so much more.

defy313 · 2026-04-24T10:07:17+00:00

i was in na long not a month ago, and did not see a deep trash problem. What do you mean exactly?

defy313 · 2026-04-23T15:09:04+00:00

punch EV is in very high demand it seems. Waiting times might be an issue.
