Powertrain
- Powering the Tata Altroz CNG is the same 1.2-litre naturally aspirated petrol engine as the standard model, mated to a 5-speed manual gearbox.
- In petrol mode, this engine generates 88 horsepower and 115 Newton meters of torque, while in CNG mode, it delivers a slightly lower output of 77 horsepower and 103 Newton meters of torque.
- The Altroz iCNG stands apart from other cars as it can be started directly in CNG mode, providing a seamless and convenient experience without the need to switch between fuel modes.
No Compromise on boot space
- Tata has equipped the Altroz with India’s first twin-cylinder CNG technology.
- Each cylinder has a water capacity of 30 litres and is cleverly positioned beneath the luggage area, allowing for ample boot space, unlike conventional CNG cars where the tanks occupy most of the available storage area.
