Tata recently launched a CNG powertrain for the popular Nexon subcompact SUV, and has offered it across a wide spectrum of variants. The Punch CNG, on the other hand, is essentially from a segment below making it a more affordable option. So, in this article, we have listed down the specifications of both the CNG SUVs, for you to conclude if it's worth paying the extra money for the larger Nexon, or if the Punch CNG would suffice your needs:

Tata Nexon CNG |
Tata Punch CNG |
Price (ex-showroom) |
Rs 8.99 lakh to Rs 14.59 lakh |
Rs 7.23 to Rs 10.05 lakh |
As seen in the table above, the Nexon CNG is over Rs 1.5 lakh more expensive for the base-spec variant and Rs 4.69 lakh more expensive if you compare the top-spec variants. The Punch CNG is also available in a special Camo edition for an additional Rs 15,000.
Let’s take a look at what all you get additionally with the Nexon CNG:

The Nexon has the greater dimensions out of the two in all aspects! Both cars are offered with a dual-cylinder kit which helps in freeing up space in the boot, but it is the Nexon which gets a significantly larger boot. The longer wheelbase of the Nexon reflects inside the cabin as well where it is the more spacious SUV.

Looking at the Nexon CNG’s long list of features in addition to that of the Punch, the premium you pay for the former starts making sense. The Nexon is offered with not just the essential features, but with many niceties as well.
The Punch’s list of equipment feels very basic in comparison, but still gets a decently-equipped cabin which will take care of your needs and requirements. However, it is high time Tata updated the Punch with 6 airbags.

As seen in the table above, the Nexon CNG comes with a rather powerful turbo-petrol engine which helps to generate much more power and torque. The Nexon also gets an extra gear with its manual transmission which means it will feel more refined at higher speeds.
With the extra features, large size and more potent powertrain on offer, we think that the Nexon CNG is worth the premium. What do you think? Let us know in the comments below.
While both are CNG SUVs from the same stable, they are positioned in different segments. The Punch CNG can be an alternative to the Maruti Swift CNG, Hyundai Exter CNG and Hyundai Grand i10 CNG, while the Nexon CNG competes with the likes of Maruti Brezza CNG and the larger Maruti Grand Vitara CNG.
