Tata Punch Facelift - Design 

Though the test mule of the Tata Punch facelift has been heavily camouflaged, key elements of the facelift are prominently visible. The front fascia of the Punch facelift closely resembles that of the Punch EV, featuring a similar bonnet line, a split headlamp configuration, and a bumper design like its electric counterpart. These design elements will bring the Punch micro SUV in line with Tata's larger SUVs like the Nexon, Harrier, and Safari, in terms of design. However, if we distinguish the Punch facelift from its EV variant. It’s unlikely that the ICE variant of the Punch will feature the full-width LED light bar at the front like the EV model and there may be alterations in bumper details.
