Tata nailed the segment with the launch of the Nexon a few years ago and now, with the Punch, Tata is earning a top spot in car sales in India. The Tata Punch micro SUV has managed to become the best-selling vehicle in India during the first half of this year (January to July 2024), selling a total of 1.26 lakh units.

After the Punch and Wagon R, the Hyundai Creta comes in third, registering sales of 1,08,698 units, followed by the Maruti Suzuki Brezza, which registered sales of 1,04,739 units in the January to July 2024 period.
What has helped the Tata Punch register good sales is undoubtedly the variety of powertrains on offer. The Tata Punch is available as a petrol-only vehicle, in petrol-CNG form, and as an all-electric SUV. The latter’s launch has helped the manufacturer boost sales of the Punch.
