2. Price: If On A Budget, Then....

Since the segments are different, so are their entry price points as well. While cross-segment shopping is nothing new when prices are similar, this is a clear-cut case. If you're shopping on a budget, then the Tata Tiago is the best option to go for. While the Tiago EV begins its range at Rs. 8.69 lakhs, the Tata Punch EV will set you back by Rs. 11 lakhs ex-showroom. When going for a vehicle good enough for your daily city runs that is lighter on your pocket as well, you have your answer.

3. Range Anxeity? This Is The Choice For You

With an electric vehicle comes range anxiety. While this is something related to the use case basis, a longer range ultimately means a more practical car. If you have a range filter and not very much pressing on the price point, close your eyes and pick the Punch EV. With its long-range model, you get a claimed range of up to 421 km. This is miles better (literally!) than the Tiago EV which offers a claimed range of 315 km. The Punch offers more than 100 km of extra range, which is a significant upgrade over the hatch.

There you have it! We have broadly categorized the selection into 3 categories- Price, Features, and Range. While no car is perfect in absolute terms, ironically, any car that fits your needs actually is. Now the onus lies on you, filter out the parameters suiting you the best, and go on with your electric journey.
