Tata Motors will unveil the Punch facelift in India on January 13, bringing a refreshed version of its best-selling micro-SUV to the market. Prices are expected to start at around ₹5.5 lakh and go up to ₹9.24 lakh (ex-showroom), reflecting the model’s updated styling, added features and enhanced safety package.
The Tata Punch facelift will still be positioned as an accessible entry-level SUV, with Tata aiming to balance competitive pricing against a significantly upgraded equipment list. The micro-SUV has been spotted at dealerships already, and here’s what we already know about it:
Tata Punch facelift: Powertrain options
The updated Punch will continue with the existing 1.2-litre naturally aspirated petrol engine from the current model. In addition, Tata Motors is set to introduce a new turbo-petrol engine, although detailed specifications have not yet been disclosed. Transmission options will include a 5-speed manual gearbox and an AMT.

Tata Punch facelift: Feature and safety upgrades

Other notable additions include a 360-degree camera system, hill descent control, automatic climate control, cruise control, a 6-speaker audio system, keyless entry with push-button start/stop and a single-pane sunroof.
Safety has also been improved, with six airbags offered as standard across the range. The safety kit further includes ABS with EBD, electronic stability control, a rear parking camera and a tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS).
Tata Punch facelift: Exterior design changes
On the outside, the 2026 Tata Punch facelift features a revised front design with slimmer LED DRLs, a refreshed grille and updated bumpers in line with Tata’s newer design language. New LED headlights have also been added. While the side profile remains largely unchanged, the SUV now rides on new 16-inch alloy wheels. At the rear, connected LED taillights and a reworked bumper give the Punch a more modern appearance.
