Tata Punch AMT is quite decent when you consider the fact that it is not a fully automatic transmission, but rather an automated manual transmission. So there is a lag when the shifting of gears happens.
No matter the speed you are going on the Tata Punch fails to provide instant power. There is always a lag after pressing the throttle till the power is delivered.

Tata Punch AMT Drive Review
Low-Speed Performance of Tata Punch AMT
The Low-Speed of tata punch(below 20kmph) is passable, you might feel that the engine noise is not comfortable to hear when the gear shifts from 1 to 2 but after that it is quite smooth. The Tata punch has enough torque in low speed to get you out of most rough patches.
But it will be a jerky experience if you press the accelerator fully. But if you drive with patience and caress the throttle you will not even feel the gear shifting.
The steering wheel is smooth and the suspension is stiff but it is expected.
Mid-Speed Performance of Tata Punch
The Tata Punch performance in speeds between 30 to 80 kmph is the most satisfying. And after the 3rd gear you will not feel the any jerk or lag.
You will get the best mileage and performance in this speed range.
The steering feedback is good and you will not feel the rough roads.
Tata Punch Performance Above 90 KMPH
This is where you will feel that the Tata punch lacks in power. The car struggles to maintain speeds above 90 kmph. Although you can take the care to give over 120 kmph but you will also feel the engine getting louder and mileage dropping.
Conclusion
The Tata Punch is great option for city drivers who will occasionally drive on highways. It is especially a great choice for areas where the roads are not that great. The ground clearance and torque is good enough for such roads.
