    The Tata Punch recently became India’s best selling car and to continue its sales momentum, Tata Motors will soon introduce the facelifted Punch in the market. Sources tell us that the launch of the Punch facelift has been brought forward by some months, as the brand had previously said it was only due by mid-2025. Here’s a look at what all will be new on the Tata Punch facelift. 

    1. New cosmetic updates expected from Punch EV
    2. Larger 10.25-inch touchscreen, wireless connectivity 
    3. No mechanical changes expected

    On the equipment front, the Punch facelift will get a larger 10.25-inch infotainment screen with wireless Android Auto and Apple Carplay, wireless charging pad and C-type fast charging ports in Accomplished and Creative variants. The sunroof will also be made available on more variants., there will be a redesigned centre console and rear AC vents, among other additions. 

    Tata Motors will also be rejigging the variant lineup of the Punch. Trims like the Pure Rhythm, Accomplished, Accomplished (Sunroof) and Creative flagship will be discontinued. Instead, there will three – Pure (O), Adventure S, Adventure+ S. Additionally, there will also be a re-shuffle of features on the existing trims. 

    Tata Punch facelift: design highlights

    On the cosmetic front, the Punch is expected to borrow cues from the Punch EV, although some differentiation will be maintained like on the Nexon and Nexon EV. So, a significantly revised fascia with new LED DRL signatures, new headlamps and new bumpers can be expected. On the inside, apart from the equipment upgrades, there could be new upholstery as a revised colour scheme for the dashboard. 

    Tata Punch facelift: no mechanical changes

    There wont be any mechanical changes as the same 1.2-litre three-cylinder petrol engine will continue with a 5-speed manual or an AMT gearbox. The engine produces 86hp and 113Nm of torque. It will also get a CNG-powered variant, just like the outgoing Punch, and an AMT gearbox might be on offer too with CNG. 

    Upon launch, the Punch facelift will continue to rival the likes of the Hyundai Exter and the Citroen C3 along with lower variants of the Nissan Magnite (facelift due next month) and Renault Kiger.
