The company has also expanded the range of CNG variants and added new features to some of the mid and high-spec trims.
Let’s take a closer look at the changes, including the price range of the updated Tata Punch model.
Changes in Price and Variants of Tata Punch
Tata Motors has simplified the lineup for both petrol and CNG variants of the Punch SUV.
The base variant now starts at Rs 6.13 lakh, while the price of the top-spec trim has been reduced by around Rs 20,000, bringing it to Rs 10.20 lakh.
Additionally, the company is offering limited-time benefits of up to Rs 18,000 on the SUV.
However, trims like Pure Rhythm, Accomplished, Accomplished SR, and Creative Flagship will no longer be available in the new model.

The number of CNG-powered variants has increased from five to seven.
The CNG range now includes Pure, Adventure, and Adventure Rhythm trims, similar to the petrol variants.
Mid and top-spec variants have also seen an increase in numbers. The price of the top-spec CNG variant has gone up by around Rs 5,000.
New Features and Trim Changes
The Pure (O) petrol variant now offers features like central locking, power windows, power ORVMs, and wheel covers, which are upgrades from the base Pure trim.

and higher trims come with a larger 10.25-inch infotainment touchscreen, while the Creative + and Creative + S trims get a wireless charger.
