What to watch

Ownership notes before you buy

  • The strongest certified range claim belongs to the larger 40 kWh setup, so buyers should not assume every Punch.ev trim delivers the same headroom.
  • Its compact-crossover format is easy to live with, but it is still better suited to everyday family duty than repeated full-load highway touring.
