Tata Motors' micro SUV, the Punch, has overtaken Maruti Suzuki's popular hatchback WagonR to become the best-selling car in the country between January 2024 and July 2024.
Tata Punch recorded a total sales of 1,26,000 units during the first seven months of the CY2024, while WagonR sold 1.16 lakh units.
With a margin of a few thousand units, Tata Punch tops the chart, demonstrating its demand and the shift of Indian customers towards SUVs.
However, in July 2024, Tata Punch slipped to the 4th spot on the list of top-selling cars of the month.
The Tata Punch is priced between Rs 6.13 lakh and Rs 10.20 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi).
Under the hood, it gets a 1.2-litre, 3-cylinder petrol engine, with an option for a CNG kit.
While the petrol variants are available with both a 5-speed manual and a 5-speed AMT, the CNG variant is limited to a manual transmission.
