Design highlights:

Updated tri-arrow grille with chrome accents

LED projector headlamps with DRLs integrated into the bumper
-
Wider air intake and reworked skid plates
-
New alloy wheel design (15- and 16-inch options)
-
Roof rails and dual-tone paint schemes

Revised LED tail lamps and black contrast roof on top trims
The design feels more proportionate, maintaining the Punch’s youthful yet tough personality that appeals to urban drivers and first-time SUV buyers alike.

CNG: 26–27 km/kg

Top trims also get an air purifier, ambient lighting, and a sunroof option for the first time in the Punch lineup.
Safety and Structural Strength
Safety continues to be a defining strength for the Punch. Built on Tata’s globally proven ALFA architecture, it retains its 5-star Global NCAP safety rating while introducing additional active safety features.

Variant highlights:

Pure: Entry model with dual airbags and basic infotainment.
