My father is considering purchasing his first car. The current options under consideration are the Tata Punch Adventure+ S and the Kia Sonet HTK Plus. The primary use will be city driving, with occasional outstation trips. Since this will be his first car, we are aiming for a reliable and feature-rich model. Could you also suggest other brands or models under ₹10 lakh that might be suitable?

Between the Tata Punch and the Kia Sonet variants you’ve shortlisted, the Kia Sonet would be the better choice. It offers a smoother four-cylinder engine, a more premium cabin, better rear seat space, and a larger boot. The feature list is nearly identical between the two. However, it’s worth noting that the Punch petrol has been tested by Global NCAP and earned a 5-star crash test rating, while the Sonet hasn’t been tested yet.
You could also consider the Maruti Suzuki Fronx, which provides even more rear seat space than both the Tata Punch and the Kia Sonet.
