If you’re planning to buy a stylish, feature-packed SUV under ₹10 lakh, the upcoming festive season might be the perfect time. Leading automakers like Hyundai, Tata, and Renault are gearing up to launch facelifted versions of their popular compact SUVs, offering better value and fresh styling without changing their core affordability. Here’s a look at three such budget SUVs expected to launch soon.
1. Hyundai Venue Facelift – Festival Launch Expected
Hyundai is preparing to introduce the facelifted version of the Venue, one of its best-selling models in India. This updated version is expected to be unveiled during the 2025 festive season.
What to Expect:
Refreshed front and rear design
Enhanced interior materials and infotainment
More premium touches in cabin layout
Likely to retain the same powertrains: 1.2L petrol, 1.0L turbo-petrol, and 1.5L diesel (depending on variant)
Spotted multiple times during road testing, the new Venue is aimed at keeping Hyundai competitive in the sub-compact SUV segment with sharper looks and a tech-laden cabin.
2. Tata Punch Facelift – More Muscle, Same Magic
The Tata Punch already dominates the entry-level SUV segment and is now set for a design and features upgrade. The facelifted model is expected to be launched later this year, possibly around the festive season.
Key Upgrades Expected:
Sharper exterior styling with updated grille and lighting elements
Interior refresh with better materials and possibly larger touchscreen
Likely no change in engine – the 1.2L petrol engine will continue
Tata may also offer additional features like wireless Android Auto/Apple CarPlay, cruise control, or rear AC vents in higher trims.
3. Renault Kiger Facelift – Sportier and Smarter
Renault is also updating its Kiger SUV, aiming to remain a strong contender in the budget segment. The facelifted Kiger has been seen testing multiple times, and sources suggest a launch before Diwali 2025 is on the cards.
Possible Improvements:
New dashboard layout
Updated digital instrument cluster
Improved connectivity and infotainment
No major mechanical changes — will likely retain its 1.0L petrol and turbo-petrol engine options
The Kiger facelift is expected to focus more on comfort, infotainment, and design, making it more appealing to young urban buyers.
Final Take: Great Value Ahead
These three facelifted SUVs — Hyundai Venue, Tata Punch, and Renault Kiger — are all set to bring in better design, upgraded cabins, and smarter features while keeping the prices competitive under ₹10 lakh. With festive offers, exchange bonuses, and financing schemes expected from manufacturers, this could be one of the best times to bring home a budget SUV.
