Tata Punch EV vs MG Comet EV : From what I understand, electric vehicles are doing excellently in the cities of India and in 2025, two names will be at the forefront – Tata Punch EV and MG Comet EV. Both are compact, quite efficient, and easy to drive in city traffic; surprisingly, they differ very much in terms of design, space, and features. If you are under budget looking for the best electric city car, let us compare these two options.
Of course, like its petrol version, the Tata Punch EV looks and feels like a proper SUV. It has very strong road presence, high ground clearance, and a spacious cabin. The MG Comet EV, however, is a cute, small, and futuristic-looking car meant purely for city driving. Super compact, it is incredibly easy to park and drive through narrow lanes but sacrifices boot space and rear seat comfort.
The Punch EV performs markedly better in both aspects, power and range. The Punch EV has two battery options – 25 kWh and 35 kWh – able to give 315 km of range on a single charge (MIDC claimed).
The smaller battery would put the MG Comet at around 230 km, which is just enough for daily use in cities with little travel. While the Punch EV feels strong and stable on acceleration and highway confidence, it’s fairly safe to say that Comet EV lacks those qualities to an extent.
Both come with great features such as the touchscreen infotainment system, digital instrument cluster, and connected car tech. However, Punch EV feels premium because it comes with a larger 10.25 inch display, better sound system, and more space inside. The Comet EV keeps things pretty much tricky with quirky design, different controls, and ultra-compact size, which may not be for everyone, but this could be fun in city traffic.
On price, Comet EV is cheaper and is bound to attract first-time buyers of EVs or simply students from colleges who want an easy first car to use. It will be on the higher side but the Punch EV has more to offer in practicality, range, and SUV comfort.
In conclusion, if your primary requirement were a daily electric car for short inner-city runs, then the MG Comet EV would be your best bet: affordable and cool. But if you want a realistic, elegant, and more powerful EV that can handle city drives with occasional highway journeys, the Punch EV is clearly the better all-rounder.
