Tata Punch Waiting Period Reaches up to 6 Weeks in India

The Tata Punch is a popular 5-seater SUV in India, with a current waiting period of 4 to 6 weeks from the date of reservation. However, it is important to note that the stated time frame is exclusive to the Mumbai region. The Renault Kiger competitor is available in seven exterior paint options such as Tornado Blue, Calypso Red, Meteor Bronze, Atomic Orange, Tropical Mist, Daytona Grey, and Orcus White. It features a 366-litre cargo capacity and a ground clearance of 187mm. Tata Motors launched the electrified version of the Punch in India in January of this year. The electrified Punch competes in its segment with the Citroen eC3, with prices ranging from Rs 10.99 lakh to Rs 14.49 lakh (ex-showroom). Here are some prominent features of the non-electric Punch, which has a prolonged waiting period in Mumbai.

A Facelift For Punch Is On The Way?

A test mule of the revised Tata Punch was seen on Indian roads earlier this month. The spy images revealed significant modifications to the SUV's front, which looks sharper than the current iteration. The facelift is expected to come with revised headlights, altered DRLs, a new grille design, modified front and rear bumpers, improved alloy wheels, and reworked taillights.
