Will the Tata Punch facelift have a CNG AMT variant?

Asked by: Ankit Kumar

Yes, the Tata Punch facelift has been launched with several twin-cylinder i-CNG variants, and is the first CNG model in the country to be offered with an AMT gearbox. 

What's more, you also get paddle shifters for better gear shift control, should you want them. Unlike a lot of other cars that restrict the CNG version to the lower variants, the Punch i-CNG is available in a whopping 11 variants between both gearbox options. 

So you're not shortchanged on features either. Do note, however, that top-spec CNG automatics are expensive, the priciest costing Rs 10.54 lakh (ex-showroom).

I want to buy a new car and have shortlisted the XUV 3XO REVX, Skoda Kylaq, and Kia Syros within a budget of ₹13 lakh (petrol version due to GRAP restrictions every winter). My daily running is around 45 km. I am confused between these three options. Kindly suggest.

Our pick of the three would be the Skoda Kylaq, the Prestige MT variant in its lineup. It will be slightly over your budget, but it will give you excellent performance and great driving dynamics. In our real-world mileage test, it offered a combined mileage of 13kpl, which is good by segment standards.It also comes with all desirable features, such as LED headlamps and fog lamps, front ventilated seats, automatic climate control, a 10-inch touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, and a sunroof.

I’m 72 years old. At present, I drive a Maruti Swift. My running is not too much and is limited to local driving. My budget is around ₹25 lakh. I want a 5-seater petrol automatic SUV with good height and strong road presence. Which vehicle would you recommend?

You can pick the Mahindra XUV 7XO, the AX7T Petrol AT variant. Although on paper it is listed as a 7-seater, it satisfies all your other requirements. It has great road presence, been refreshed recently, and looks more muscular now.This Mahindra car offers a commanding driving position, easy ingress and egress for the first two rows, and it is well-equipped. Its third row is practically unusable by adults, and you can fold it flat to open up a large boot space. It has a 2-litre turbo Petrol engine, which has strong performance, and the 6-speed AT is a smooth unit. The ride quality has been improved and optimised for handling Indian roads.

I brought my Nexon XZA+ AMT petrol car from Spinny, but the mileage is lower than 7 in the city. How to improve mileage? It was already serviced at the Tata center yet it can't understand the issue with low mileage. Is there any repair or maintenance needed?

Poor fuel efficiency can be due to several factors. If the service center has inspected the vehicle and cleared it for being fit, chances are that it could be due to driving conditions. Turbo-petrol engines are very sensitive to driving style, and constant stop-go conditions can take a toll on efficiency. Hence, if your usage is primarily in bumper-to-bumper traffic, or if your travel distances are limited to very short distances, less than 4km, the low fuel efficiency is justified.Additionally, you could consider bumping up your tyre pressures slightly for lesser rolling resistance. Also, ensure your Nexon is serviced regularly, too. Also, for more tips, read our article on 7 ways to get better fuel economy from your car.
