Tata Punch pricing and rivals:
Tata Motors will reveal the pricing of Punch SUV on launch date but there is enough buzz that the company could undercut rivals in this aspect. Punch falls in the sub-compact SUV segment and could take the fight to entry-level vehicles in this segment like Nissan Magnite and Renault Kiger. The upper variants may also pose a big threat to the likes of Kia Sonet, Hyundai Venue and Maruti Suzuki Vitara Brezza, especially because Tata Motors is underlining the ability of Punch to negotiate tough terrains.
