Inside, the 2026 Punch facelift is expected to showcase a new two-spoke steering wheel akin to the one found in the Altroz. Additional features may include an 8-speaker audio system, ventilated front seats, standard six airbags, and a blind spot monitor. Mechanically, the Punch is anticipated to retain its current engine lineup.
