Tata Punch Variants Discontinued: Gearing Up To Launch A Facelifted Version Of The Punch
Tata Punch is one of the popular and highest-selling cars in the Indian market for the past few months even outselling the likes of Maruti Swift, Dzire, and WagonR which have been the mass sellers in the passenger vehicle industry. One of the reasons why Punch is one of the best-selling models in the country is the number of options available to the customers. Tata Motors offers the Punch in four broad trims namely Pure, Adventure, Accomplished Plus, and Creative Plus. In addition, there is the Camo edition available in selected trims. The Punch also became the first ever SUV in India to become the highest-seller for three consecutive months giving Maruti and Hyundai a tough time.

The homegrown carmaker has chosen to discontinue some variants of the micro SUV. They have delisted Adventure, Adventure Rhythm, and Adventure Plus variants from the lineup. The Adventure line was earlier offered in Adventure, Adventure Rhythm, Adventure Plus, Adventure S and Adventure Plus S trim levels.
The latest development of possible discontinuation of the variants mentioned above is applicable for both petrol and CNG powertrains. The reason for the discontinuation is because Tata Motors is gearing up to launch a beautified and updated version of the Punch which is expected to hit the market sometime next year. It will receive a revamped exterior and interior design in line with the Punch EV which was launched earlier this year.
