Trending Questions on Tata Punch - Answered by Autocar Experts

Asked by: Dilip Khambeteon Jan 7, 2026

I want to buy a new car. It should be a small car, with a monthly running of up to 150km, mostly for city driving. I earlier owned a Maruti 800, but since my height is 6ft 2in, it was uncomfortable to sit and drive, so I sold it long ago. Budget is not a constraint. Please suggest a good value-for-money option.

It will be better if you go for an SUV; even small SUVs will give you better headroom. In the small car segment, you can look at the Tata Punch, which has wide-opening doors, making ingress and egress easier, good headroom, and an adjustable headrest can also add to your comfort.
This Tata car also gets a spacious cabin, lots of features, a 5-star safety rating, and is widely popular, so you get better resale value, too.

Asked by: Suresh Swetharanyamon Jan 7, 2026

I am currently using a Hyundai Venue (2019) and will be retiring by April. My car usage will be limited after retirement, mainly on weekends and for two long trips in a year. I am planning to buy a CNG car with a budget of around ₹10 lakh. Since I have been driving a manual car for over 15 years, should I continue with a CNG manual or opt for a CNG AMT, considering my age? Please suggest which option would be better.

You would have far more options opting for a manual gearbox with a CNG engine. Since you are used to a manual, this should be fine, and we would suggest you look at the Hyundai Exter or the Tata Punch.
Both have the dual tank CNG option, which sits below the boot floor, thus leaving you with enough boot space, and both cars offer you a slightly elevated seating position and an easy entry and exit.
If, however, you would like to opt for an automatic, an AMT - which is the only type of automatic available with CNG - will not be a very smooth gearbox as far as automatics go, but in heavy traffic conditions would still be better than a manual. In this case, look at the Tata Tiago, which also has the dual CNG tank advantage.

Asked by: Avion Jan 6, 2026

I ma going to purchase my first car and new to cars. I want to buy an automatic car with mostly city drive and occasional highway. I need a car with 3 adult rear seat with a budget of 13-15 lakh on road. From my side, I have looked for punch but heard it's rear seat is not good for 3 adults and also have 3xo ax5 in mind. Please advise as open to any options

Yes, seating three adults at the rear of the Tata Punch will be tight. Tata Motors has recently unveiled a new updated Punch; however, changes are to the features and engine, space inside will remain the same. 

We would recommend the Mahindra XUV 3XO as the rear is spacious, particularly in terms of width, which is what you will need to seat 3 adults at the rear. Moreover, the car has a comfortable ride and is well-equipped too. 

However, do not expect class-leading fuel efficiency as the engines are tuned with a bias towards a more lively performance.

Asked by: DeeJayon Dec 30, 2025

I am a first-time car buyer, 61 years old, and I want a tall car so I don’t have to slouch. I have knee and lower back issues, and want my first car to be a Tata. My budget can vary or be modified according to my comfort needs.

Tata Motors has a wide range of crossover and SUV options that you could consider depending on your budget. However, since you are a first-time car buyer, we would advise you against the Tata Sierra and Harrier, which are quite large and might seem intimidating to drive.
The Tata Punch is a good starting point and worth a look, but we feel the Nexon is the best pick for your requirements. It sits at a comfortable height, so you won't need to slouch down to enter it, and the vehicle itself is of a comfortable size - roomy enough to accommodate four adults with ease yet small enough to be convenient to drive. 
We'd suggest you opt for an automatic transmission version that will help remove the bother of modulating the clutch pedal. If your budget allows, the smooth dual-clutch automatic version is the one to buy.

Asked by: Biswajeet Acharyon Dec 30, 2025

I am 65 years old and will be superannuating from service soon. My current car is chauffeur-driven. I am now looking for a comfortable automatic car for city use that I can drive myself, with occasional long trips of up to 300 km. My budget is ₹8 lakh on-road. Please suggest suitable options.

There are quite a few automatic options within your budget. However, we'd narrow the list down to models with high seating, which are more convenient to get into and out of. The Maruti Suzuki Wagon R would be the first model we'd recommend for you. Its high seating, excellent visibility and airy cabin are aspects you will appreciate. This Maruti car is easy to drive, and the brand’s hassle-free ownership is a plus in its own right. Opt for the AMT gearbox with the more powerful 1.2-litre petrol engine.
Within the Maruti line-up, you could also look at the Ignis AMT, though ride comfort is a bit harsh. Other alternatives with high seating include the Nissan Magnite AMT, Renault Kiger AMT and Tata Punch AMT.

Asked by: Kanhaiya Singhon Dec 27, 2025

I am a retired person. I may travel around 200 km per month and also take 2-3 long trips of 500-800 km per year. Should I choose the Tata Punch Automatic or the Tata Punch EV Automatic?

The Tata Punch EV is a pleasure to drive and an excellent city car, but unfortunately, it doesn’t have the range to do 500km without a charge. Stopping to charge on the highway is not advisable, as the charging infrastructure isn’t very reliable. 

If this is going to be your only car, it's best to go for the Tata Punch 1.2 petrol automatic. It’s nowhere near as smooth or peppy to drive as the Punch EV, but you get the same rugged build and comfortable ride.

Asked by: Deepak Sainion Dec 25, 2025

Hi Autocar Team, I learned to drive in my 2011 Santro and have been driving it for almost a year. I now want to buy a new car with a budget of approximately ₹9 lakh. Safety is my top priority. My usage is low at around 200 km in the city, and I also plan to take monthly highway trips. I am confused between the Tata Punch Adventure Plus and the Maruti Fronxx Delta Plus. Please suggest which one I should consider with reasons, and whether I should prefer an automatic.

Of the two options you have shortlisted, it's the Maruti Suzuki Fronx that we'd recommend. It's got the peppier engine, which will make a big difference on your highway journeys. 

Given your limited usage in the city, an automatic isn't essential. Again, were you to opt for the automatic options, it's the Fronx's AMT that's superior to the one you get on the Tata Punch AMT.

Asked by: SUDARSHAN ARUN Pon Dec 25, 2025

My running is about 1,000 km per month, and I mostly work in villages in Rajasthan. Which car should I consider?

Since your monthly driving is around 1000km, it will be better if you go for a diesel car. If you prefer a manual gearbox, the Tata Nexon diesel is a good option for its good ride quality. But if you want an automatic, you can consider the Hyundai Venue diesel AT. 

The ride quality of the 2025 Venue has been improved significantly, and now it gives a good ride quality on Indian roads. 

The Nexon’s automatic option is an AMT, which has noticeable gearshift jerks and can become tiring on long drives. 
In the smaller segment, the Tata Punch manual or the Hyundai Exter AMT are good alternatives. 

Exter’s AMT is one of the smoothest AMTs in the market.

Asked by: S Routon Dec 15, 2025

I want to purchase a new car, and my budget is up to Rs 8 lakh. I am 70 years old. Please advise.

There are multiple options that you could consider in your Rs 8 lakh budget, but we'd recommend you shortlist the Maruti Suzuki Baleno Zeta or the Toyota Glanza S, and the Tata Punch.
The Baleno/Glanza (essentially the same car with some cosmetic modifications) will be smoother, more efficient and nicer to drive. And the ownership experience with Maruti or Toyota is likely to be trouble-free. 

The Tata Punch, due to its high seats and wide-opening doors, will make getting in and out very easy. Also, being an SUV, visibility is also better from the Punch's driving seat. So if you'd like to opt for an SUV body style, the Punch is a good option.

Asked by: Abinashon Dec 11, 2025

I have been using Tata Punch for a year. For me, this car met all my expectations being a new driver as well as a first-time owner. Now, I want to move towards a more premium segment and comfort with more latest features available in the market. Which car should I buy? I bought the Punch under 10 lakh (on-road). This time, my budget is under 20 lakh. I prefer Indian brands only.

The Tata Safari is the one for you. It will feel like a huge step up compared to a Tata Punch in all aspects - road presence, cabin space, interior quality, equipment, drive experience, etc. Multiple variants of the Safari will fall within your budget - petrol, diesel or turbo-petrol, so based on your usage, you could pick the one that's right for you.
We've experienced the Turbo-petrol AT and Diesel AT, and out of these, the former is our pick for its smoothness, refinement and strong performance.
