Pros & Cons

Pros
Cons

Maruti Suzuki Baleno
- Features: Useful additions like ventilated seats, wireless charger and Level-2 ADAS
- Ride comfort: Isolates really well from bad roads and feels stable on the highway
- Refinement: Despite the 3-cylinder engine, feels refined with controlled vibrations
- Space: Accommodates four adults, including tall ones at the rear
- City drivability: Feels smooth and has good usable performance for city speeds
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.

Maruti Suzuki Baleno
- Looks: New grille looks too bold in what is an otherwise sober styling
- Silly misses: No rear central armrest, front type-C ports and LED indicators
- Highway performance: Slow and gradual acceleration beyond 60kmph takes time to build speed
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
