Tyre Options & Price

The Tata Punch.EV is just what most people wanted from an urban EV – it looks stylish, has a tough stance despite compact dimensions, is spacious and heavily equipped with features and is smooth to drive with appreciative range options. For such urban electric vehicles, the tyres should be all-rounder. While they should absorb irregular undulations and rough surfaces conveniently, they should also be long-lasting and offer minimal NVH levels while on the go.
