Our take on this /// Verdict

The Tata Hornbill, now known as the Tata Punch, is a compelling addition to the micro-SUV segment in India. From my perspective, this vehicle stands out with its bold and boxy design, which is a refreshing change from the more rounded looks of its competitors. The Punch is built on the ALFA architecture, which ensures a robust and stable ride. The interior is well-appointed, with features like an 7-inch infotainment system and a semi-digital instrument cluster, making it a comfortable and tech-savvy option. However, the real test lies in its performance, where the 1.2-litre petrol engine, likely borrowed from the Tata Tiago, should provide adequate power for urban commuting. Overall, the Tata Punch is a solid choice for those seeking a stylish, feature-packed, and affordable micro-SUV.

Price

The Tata Punch is priced competitively in the Indian market. The ex-showroom prices start around 5.5 lakh for the base variant and go up to around 9.5 lakh for the top-of-the-line variant. On-road prices, including taxes and other costs, can range from approximately 6.5 lakh to 11 lakh, depending on the state and city. This pricing strategy positions the Punch as a strong contender against rivals like the Maruti Suzuki Ignis and Mahindra KUV100. Given its feature list and build quality, the Punch offers good value for money, making it an attractive option for budget-conscious buyers looking for a stylish and functional micro-SUV.

Wednesday, 20 November 2024 06:21 AM Tata Motors has begun testing the Hornbill micro-SUV in India, with recent spy images revealing a test-mule that showcases the vehicles design cues, including a split headlamp setup and a tri-arrow pattern on the front grille. The Hornbill is expected to be a significant addition to Tatas SUV lineup. I think this could be a game-changer in the micro-SUV segment.

The Hornbill will feature styling elements from the Harrier SUV and is likely to be powered by a 1.2-litre petrol engine.

I believe this platform choice will make the Hornbill quite competitive.

Mileage

Tuesday, 19 November 2024 09:37 PM The mileage of the Tata Punch is a crucial factor for many Indian buyers, given the countrys fuel prices. With its 1.2-litre petrol engine, the Punch is expected to deliver a mileage of around 18-20 kmpl in city driving conditions and up to 22 kmpl on highways.
