Let us tell you that Punch is currently Tata’s best selling car and it was launched for the first time in India in the year 2021.
According to the teaser video, the new Tata Punch looks more powerful and SUV-like than before, with an upright and strong stance. The highlights of its updated exterior are new LED headlamps and fog lamps, sleek DRLs, new front grille and new front bumper, which give it a more muscular look.
