Despite being a compact SUV, the Tata Punch has established itself as a strong competitor in the Indian automotive market. It has outperformed all other models to become the best-selling SUV in the country from January to November 2024, with 1,86,958 units sold. This marks a significant increase compared to its 2023 sales of 150,182 units. The Punch’s popularity can be attributed to its impressive mix of affordability, features, and overall value for money.
