The Punch EV gets a noticeable design update as compared to the standard Punch. The overall look is more in line with the new Nexon EV with a lightbar sitting at the base of the bonnet, an enclosed body-coloured grille and the headlamps sitting lower down in triangular housings on the bumper. The Punch EV also looks to get the charging point on the nose. The overall proportions, silhouette and tail section though remain unchanged over the internal combustion model.
