Tata Motors has launched the Punch facelift in India, with prices starting at 5.59 lakh (ex-showroom). The updated model brings noticeable design changes on the outside, a revised cabin layout, added features, and an expanded engine line-up, while continuing with the core strengths of the outgoing Punch.

What’s new on the outside?

The Punch facelift gets a visibly reworked front end. The fascia has been completely redesigned, with the headlamp units now repositioned and housed differently than before, giving the SUV a sharper look. While the side profile remains largely unchanged, Tata has added a new set of alloy wheels to freshen things up.

At the rear, the changes are easier to spot. The tail lamps have been redesigned and are now connected by a full-width LED light bar. The lower section of the rear bumper has also been restyled, rounding off the exterior updates.

What’s new on the inside?

The interior of the Punch facelift has been revised, with the dashboard layout now closely aligned with what’s seen on the Punch EV. The overall colour scheme continues in familiar black and white tones, but elements like the air vents have been redesigned for a cleaner look.

A major upgrade is the new 10.25-inch touchscreen infotainment system, replacing the earlier 7-inch unit. The instrument cluster has also been updated to a fully digital display, though it remains a 7-inch screen. The steering wheel is now a two-spoke unit, similar to newer Tata models, and for 2026, the Punch also gets a 360-degree camera system.

Same engine, plus a new turbo option

Under the hood, the standard Punch facelift continues with the 1.2-litre, three-cylinder petrol engine producing 88 hp and 115 Nm of torque. Buyers can choose between a 5-speed manual gearbox and a 5-speed AMT.

New for this update is a turbo-petrol variant. This version uses a 1.2-litre turbocharged petrol engine that delivers 118 hp and 170 Nm of torque. Prices for the iTurbo variants start at 8.29 lakh (ex-showroom).

The Punch facelift also carries a 5-star Bharat NCAP safety rating and continues to offer the AMT CNG option, making it India’s first AMT-equipped CNG SUV.
