The recently introduced twin cylinders in the Exter CNG have made it a much worthy competitor to the Punch CNG
Although cars with a factory-fitted CNG kit have been a popular choice among customers for over a decade,one of their significant drawbacks has been the limited boot space they have on offer. In 2023, the Tata Punch was one of the first few CNG cars in India to get a new split-cylinder setup. The Hyundai Exter CNG recently followed in the Punch’s footsteps and got the same split-cylinder technology as well. So we decided to compare the specifications of the two micro SUVs in detail.

-
Feature wise, both the models get automatic AC, all power windows, and ISOFIX child seat anchorages.
-
The Punch CNG has certain feature advantages over the Exter CNG including automatic headlights, alloy wheels, rain-sensing wipers, and push start/stop button.
-
The Exter CNG, on the other hand, offers some additional features like a bigger infotainment system, six airbags, tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS), and rear AC vents which is a miss in the Punch CNG.
Verdict
Overall, both models are well loaded and pack a similar CNG powertrain as well. If you prioritize a spacious and well-equipped micro-SUV, then Punch CNG might be your pick. On the other hand, if you want your micro SUV’s CNG variant to have more premium features, it’s the Exter that should be your pick, although it comes at a higher price in its base trim.
