The Punch has come out to be a successful product for Tata. It revived the micro SUV segment in the market. The Punch is one of the most affordable SUVs anyone can consider in India. To increase the value for money quotient even further, a more fuel-efficient alternative could be added to the Punch. Keeping this in mind, Tata is planning to launch the Punch CNG very soon. In this article, we discuss everything we expect from the Punch CNG. 

Why Punch CNG?

We all know that the prices of the CNG are less than other fuels and they give better mileage figures than the regular petrol and diesel engine cars. Due to this, budget car buyers get attracted to CNG cars. Knowing this, Tata has started working on CNG cars. Their first CNG cars for 2022 were the Tiago CNG & the Tigor CNG. Punch was launched keeping the budget car buyers in mind. As they have CNG technology and Punch is also their entry-level SUV, it does make sense for Punch to get the CNG kit. 

Engine Specifications

Currently, Tata Punch is available with a 1.2-litre Revotron petrol engine that makes 86bhp & 113Nm of torque. This engine has a claimed mileage of 18.97 kmpl. Tata could add the CNG kit to the same engine. However, with this, the power figures are expected to be reduced. The CNG will mostly come mated to a five-speed manual gearbox only.

Tata Punch CNG – Features

The Punch CNG would have all the features the regular Punch currently gets. How can we say this? Since Tata has a habit of positioning the CNG variants as premium offerings. It gets a 7.0-inch touchscreen infotainment system, steering-mounted controls, iRA-connected car technology, and more. The highlighted features of Punch are safety and connected car technology. 

Tata Punch CNG – Prices and Conclusion
