Hyundai has recently launched its Tata Punch-rivalling Exter micro SUV and the first-ever walkaround video of the two is out.
Here is a detailed walk-around comparison of the Hyundai Exter and Tata Punch. Hyundai has taken the market by storm with its latest product for Indian customers. The Exter comes with tons of segment-first features, safety equipment, bold styling, as well as attractive pricing. On the other hand, Tata Punch is one of the most popular and highest-selling vehicles in the country ever since its launch. It has dominated the micro SUV segment, which until now, had no real rivals apart from the Maruti Ignis and Citroen C3. Let us see how it fares against the newcomer.

Hyundai Exter vs Tata Punch Walkaround Comparison
This video has been uploaded by AutoXp on YouTube. The host has parked the two micro SUVs side-by-side for a detailed comparison. The front end of the Exter has a parametric grille, while the sleek hood-level DRLs incorporate the distinctive ‘H’ signature for a unique touch. Although the side profile may appear somewhat flat, it maintains the typical SUV aesthetic with 15-inch diamond-cut alloys and roof rails. The overall look is enhanced by the large windows, stylish alloy wheels, and roof rails. The rear end includes a robust skid plate and LED taillamps with the iconic ‘H’ signature. Because the main headlamp cluster is positioned on the bumper, the front fascia is devoid of fog lamps. At the rear, there is a black element between the tail lamps along with the shark fin antenna and roof-mounted spoiler.

On the other hand, Tata Punch carries the modern appearance that we have come to witness on all the latest Tata products. This means that the LED DRLs are positioned on the bonnet while the main headlamp cluster is situated on the bumper. A sleek chrome belt is visible underneath the front grille, there are foglamps on the extreme edges of the bumper and the rugged skid plate lends a sporty appearance. It has 16-inch diamond-cut alloy wheels and the rear door handle is mounted on the C-pillar. All in all, both these SUVs have a distinct road presence.
