Tata Punch SUV revealed by Tata motors, Seems to draw looks from Nexon

Tata motors has finally revealed about its much awaited micro SUV-Tata Punch in the Indian market. The Tata Punch was presented in the Auto Expo in 2020 under the concept name H2X. Even though auto enthusiasts were assuming the name of the micro SUV to be H2X, many were surprised by the new name.

According to Tata, the new SUV-Punch will launch and subsequently go for sale in the upcoming months. In terms of hierarchy, the Tata Punch will fit just below the Tata Nexon. It is assumed that just like the Tata Nexon, the Tata Punch will create a niche audience for itself.

The specifications, design and features of the Tata Punch can be summarised under the following:

Engine: Tata has equipped the Punch with an option of two petrol engines- a 1.2 litre unit or a 1.2 litre turbocharged unit. The transmission option includes a 5 speed manual transmission along with an option for automatic variant.

Dimensions: The Tata Punch is 3840mm in length, 1822mm in width, 1635mm in height and 2450mm in terms of wheelbase. The wheels of the SUV are 16 inches and give a boost to the overall side design.

Price: Even though the company is yet to announce the price of the micro SUV, it is expected that the Tata Punch will be priced just under Rs 5 lakh and will go up to Rs 10 lakh.

Rivals: Upon its release, the Tata Punch will compete with the likes of Nissan Magnite, Maruti Suzuki Ignis and Renault Kiger.
