Pros & Cons

Pros
Cons

Hyundai Exter
- Looks: Rugged cladding and boxy shape give it a mini-SUV look
- High seating and tall windows offer good driving confidence: Perfect for new drivers
- Good feature package: Dashcam, single-pane sunroof, cruise control, and Android Auto and Apple CarPlay
- AMT transmission has been tuned well for smooth shifts
Tata Punch
- SUV-like design: Looks like a proper mini SUV now, with clear design cues borrowed from bigger Tata models.
- Turbo-petrol engine: One of the most affordable turbo-petrol cars in India, finally giving the Punch strong performance.
- Useful feature upgrades: New 7-inch digital instrument cluster and 360-degree camera add real value.
- Spacious cabin: Comfortably seats four adults with good headroom and legroom for the size.
- Multiple powertrain options: Petrol, turbo-petrol and CNG with AMT make the Punch a versatile choice.

Hyundai Exter
- Looks are polarising
- Drive experience is dull and there’s no turbo-petrol engine
Tata Punch
- Interior feels familiar: Design changes are minimal, and plastic quality is just about average for the segment.
- Touch-based air-conditioning panel: It is overly sensitive to touch and often requires you to take your eyes off the road, which isn’t ideal while driving.
- No turbo-petrol automatic: The missing automatic gearbox with the turbo engine limits its appeal for city buyers.
- Locked fuel efficiency: Our test cars had the minimum fuel efficiency locked at 8 kmpl, which is misleading and not transparent for the users.
