The daylight headlamps and the diamond-cut alloys make the car more premium.

The 1.2-litre turbo petrol engine produces 102 hp power which is same as the engine used in the Nexon and 85 hp produces by the 1.2-litre petrol engine which is same as used in Tata Tiago whereas 90 hp power is produced by the 1.5-litre turbo diesel engine.

The transmission system is used is manual transmission system which is same in all variants the automatic transmission system may come later after some time.

Tata Altroz Performance

Talk about the performance of diesel engine, There is considerably turbo lag in diesel version but it nicely works on the high speed or when the rpm of the car is high, Mostly the turbo lags between 1800- 2000 rpm but after then it pickups nicely. The most important thing is that the engine is silent and not producing any annoying sound.

If we talk about the Petrol engine then the engine is energetic but lacking in power. Similarly, perform well at the high speed and no annoying sound is produced by the engine.
