Tata Motors has made leaps and bounds in the world of passenger cars and the Altroz is a fine example of the same. You pick any parameter that needs to be satisfied for a consumer of this segment and this car ticks it properly. For starters, the Altroz looks beautiful, aggressive and modern, all at the same time. There is simply no way you can&rsquo;t help but look at this car multiple times. It is that good! And then the cabin - high quality with best in class space. Even the doors open 90 degree wide which means getting in and out is a breeze.&nbsp;

But its not just about about the design or the airy cabin but a lot more than goes in favour of the car. For example, the way is rides - feels plush and a car that belongs to a higher segment. That important &lsquo;big car&rsquo; feel makes you feel safe and the Altroz comes with a 5-star rating on the NCAP tests. 
On offer is a 1.2-litre petrol and a 1.5-lite diesel. The former is good for urban runs but feels harsh and out of breath when pushed hard. However, we are told Tata is working on a (more) powerful version that should come out this year. Ditto for that all important automatic. The current 1.5 diesel is a delight, offering terrific punch from just over tick over - this means it is a hoot to drive at lower revs, offering phenomenal low end punch which negates shifting of gears. 
If you can live without an automatic, the Altroz may be the answer to your perfect premium hatchback.

There are Tata Tiago, Hyundai Aura, Honda Amaze cars competing with Tata Altroz.

The exchange value of Tata Altroz is dependant upon various factors, like number of KM driven, Years, car condition, insurance claims.

Now that the covers from the Tata Altroz turbo petrol have been taken off, read our article to know how does it stack up vs the Polo TSI. Let us see how the Tata's most anticipated variant of the Altroz stacks up against the king of the segment.



The Altroz is Tata's third attempt at making a hatchback with a turbocharged petrol engine. The first two were the Tata Bolt and the Tigor JTP. While both of them did not do well in terms of the sales, hence Tata would be hoping to get lucky for the third time as the Altroz Turbo Petrol looks to dethrone the current king.

Engine and performance - Here are the power and torque figures of the two vehicles in question.



<figure class="wp-block-table"><table class=""><tbody><tr><td>Vehicle</td><td>Tata Altroz iTurbo </td><td>VW Polo 1.0 TSI</td></tr><tr><td>Power </td><td>110 PS @5500 RPM </td><td>110 PS @5000-5500 RPM </td></tr><tr><td>Torque </td><td>140 NM @ 1500 – 5500 </td><td>175 Nm @1750-4000 RPM </td></tr></tbody></table></figure>

<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://www.91wheels.com/news-backend/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/polo-gt.jpg" alt="Altroz Turbo vs Polo TSI" class="wp-image-5937" /></figure>



While both the cars have the same amount of power, the Altroz does have a lesser peak torque on paper. But it is important to note that not only the torque band of the Altroz starts a bit earlier at 1500 RPM but it also remains flat till 5500 rpm which is a much fatter torque band as compared to the Polo TSI. The specs on paper in fact point towards the Altroz being a much more forgiving car to drive in the city.



As far fuel economy is concerned, the Polo TSI returns an ARAI claimed 18.24 kmpl whereas the Altroz turbo claims an ARAI rated 18.13 kmpl which makes the two cars very close in terms of their fuel efficiency figures



Interiors - The Polo TSI comes with a familiar interior which hasn't undergone too many changes since its launch. The black theme of the interior goes well with the sporty feeling that the hatch carries. The dials and gauges have been the same. While it doesn't have a lot of gimmicks up its sleeve, it gets the basics fairly right. As far as in car entertainment is concerned, the Polo TSI comes VW's RCD340G unit that gets apple carplay and android auto. 



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://www.91wheels.com/news-backend/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/Volkswagen-Polo-Dashboard.jpg" alt="Altroz Turbo vs Polo TSI" class="wp-image-6699" /></figure>



The Altroz Turbo's interior is a contrast to what the Polo TSI offers. The interior layout is lot more contemporary and is aesthetically pleasing to the eyes as well. The multi colour scheme of the interior makes it feel more spacious than it actually is. The 6.5 inch floating touchscreen display and the ambient lighting system also do add to the pleasing interiors of the car. There is no doubt about the fact that the Altroz is much modern car when it comes to the interiors.

The dimensions comparison chart here clearly shows that the polo is a smaller car as compared to the Tata Altroz. The Altroz is not only spacious on the inside but also has an almost flat floor in the rear which makes it fairly easy for 5 people to sit. Also, the Altroz has a boot space of 345 litres which is nearly 25 percent more than the VW Polo's boot space which measures at 280 litres. So when it comes to space and practicality, the Altroz is clearly ahead of the Polo.

Also, it gets features like Xpress cooling, new XZ+ variant, iRA (intelligent real-time assist), leatherette seats, driving modes like city and sport and among other several features. 



India is a growing market and the latest trend apart from the huge rush in the SUV segment, it is the turbo petrol engine. To give the buyer performance as well as keep the mileage good, this is what every carmaker is focusing on right now. We pitch the popular hatchbacks that are Tata Altroz Turbo vs 2020 Hyundai i20 and bring you a spec comparison of both.

Engine Details



<figure class="wp-block-table"><table class=""><tbody><tr><td>Model</td><td>Tata Altroz Turbo</td><td>Hyundai i20 Turbo</td></tr><tr><td>Petrol Engine</td><td>1.2-litre turbo</td><td>1.0-litre turbo</td></tr><tr><td>Number Of Cylinder</td><td>3</td><td>3</td></tr><tr><td>Max.

Even though the i20 gets a smaller displacement engine, it makes sure to deliver more power and torque through it. The 1.0-litre turbocharged engine which was first seen in the Venue and has carried forward to several cars like Aura, Grand i10 Nios turbo and Verna.

This engine generates 118 bhp with a peak torque of 172 Nm. Hyundai has brought in the new iMT technology for the i20 instead of the regular 6-speed stick shift with a clutch. For automatic, it continued with the 7-speed DCT gearbox and it is a good unit delivering good fuel economy. We have tested the same for Venue and we are sure for i20, the mileage will be more.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://www.91wheels.com/news-backend/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/WhatsApp-Image-2020-10-27-at-3.29.45-PM.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-24315"/></figure>



Sharing light on the Tata Altroz then it gets a 1.2-litre turbocharged engine sourced from Nexon. It is a downsized in terms of power delivery and torque figures and now generates 109 bhp with 140 Nm of peak torque. This engine gets mated to a 5-speed unit than the 6-speed we have seen in the Nexon.

Now, where the Altroz excels is in terms of weight as it weighs only 980 kgs. Yes, talk about power to weight ratio now. It will be quick and we just expect the gear shifts will not be a hassle and there is good low-end torque to whistle past the new i20. 



Both the cars will also target the decade-old Volkswagen Polo 1.0L TSI which is quite a competition. Polo has always been a hot hatch in terms of the driveability and engine performance and with its 6-speed manual and 6-speed torque converter gearbox, we believe it will be quite a competition in hot hatches. Volkswagen Polo gets a 1.0L turbocharged engine which makes as much as 109 bhp with 175 Nm of peak torque.

As we have already mentioned before, the Tata Altroz was first launched in India in January 2020. However, upon launch, this premium hatch got only a naturally-aspirated petrol motor and a diesel engine.

Original Article - November 28, 2020: India is one of the largest car markets in the world. In this vast car market, what matters the most to the people is how a car looks, the features on offer, brand value, price and after-sales service and most importantly 'kitna deti hai' a.k.a. mileage or fuel-efficiency. The safety of the vehicle has always been ignored in India by both the customers as well as the manufacturers. However, it's nice to see that in recent years, people have changed their perceptions. The buyers now consider vehicular safety too as an important parameter while purchasing a car and the government has also made some basic safety features standard across all the variants of the car. Today, we will be listing for you the Top 10 Safest Cars in India in 2020-21 along with their Global NCAP crash test scores.

Well, before we begin, let me tell you that safety is still a neglected topic in India by most people. However, there are a lot of buyers who now prefer good crash test ratings as they want a safe vehicle for their dear ones. The cars that are made in India are crash-tested by the Global NCAP to assess how safe or unsafe they are. Based on their scores, the cars are given star ratings ranging from 0 to 5. Global NCAP (New Car Assessment Program) is an independent charity that is registered in the United Kingdom. It aims for the promotion of public safety in order to protect and preserve human life and to make the world free from road fatalities and serious injuries. Global NCAP crash tests made in India cars under #SaferCarsForIndia campaign.

Top 13 Upcoming BS6 Cars in India in January 2021; 11 Launches, 2 Unveils - All Details

Tata Fanboys, it's time to rejoice as Tata Motors has finally announced that the new 2021 Tata Altroz Turbo Petrol will be launched in India on January 13, 2021. Tata Motors ventured into the premium hatchback segment of the country with the Tata Altroz earlier this year in January 2020. Upon launch, this new premium hatch got a naturally-aspirated petrol motor and a diesel engine. It has been in news since a really long time that Tata Motors is soon going to launch the Altroz Turbo Petrol too in India. However, the launch of the Altroz Turbo was delayed several times. But now, it's finally happening! So, here are all the details about the upcoming Tata Altroz Turbo Petrol.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://www.91wheels.com/news-backend/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/altroz-1.jpg" alt="2021 Tata Altroz Turbo Petrol " class="wp-image-20313"/></figure>



First of all, starting with the powerplant, so the new Tata Altroz Turbo will be powered by a BS6-compliant 1.2-litre turbocharged petrol engine. This turbo petrol motor will churn out 110 PS of maximum power at 5500 RPM and 140 Nm of peak torque between 1500-5500 RPM. The engine will come mated to Tata Motors' TA65 manual gearbox which is a five-speed unit. The company will also introduce a 7-speed (DCT) dual-clutch transmission with the Altroz at a later point of time or else it might be now offered from the day-one of launch too. This 1.2-litre turbo petrol motor is the same engine that also does its duty in the Nexon but in a different (higher) state of tune.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://www.91wheels.com/news-backend/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/Tata-Altroz-Turbo-Blue-2.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-28077"/></figure>

Why Tata Motors is introducing turbo petrol mill in the Altroz? The answer to this question is very simple! Since its launch, the Altroz has been offered with two different engine options. One of them is a BS6-compliant 1.2-litre, naturally-aspirated, three-cylinder Revotron petrol engine that churns out 86 PS of power and 113 Nm of torque. The other mill is a BS6-compliant 1.5-litre, four-cylinder, turbocharged Revotorq diesel engine. This diesel motor churns out 90 PS of power and 200 Nm of torque. Both these engines come mated to a 5-speed manual gearbox and there is no automatic transmission on offer. Now, while the diesel motor is very good, the naturally-aspirated three-cylinder petrol mill of the Tata Altroz is average at best, considering it is a premium hatch and the rivals offer better petrol engines.

Thus, a nice turbocharged petrol engine and a new automatic transmission were much needed in the Altroz and Tata Motors is going to just do that to make the Altroz a more compelling buying package, not just for the regular car buyers but also for the enthusiasts. The new Altroz Turbo Petrol won't get any features but it might get some sporty inserts and it will get a new Blue colour variant. The upcoming Tata Altroz Turbo Petrol will directly rival against the Hyundai i20 Turbo and the Volkswagen Polo.

2021 Tata Altroz Turbo Petrol To Launch On January 13 - All Details

It has been in news since a really long time that Tata Motors is soon going to launch the Altroz Turbo Petrol in India. However hitherto, its launch plan has been delayed multiple times, thanks to the coronavirus pandemic and some other factors. But now, it seems that Tata Motors is all set to join the bandwagon of turbocharged premium hatchbacks. The upcoming Altroz Turbo has been spied on test in India several times with and without any camouflage. Along with the new turbo petrol mill, the company will also introduce a new colour variant. The new blue colour variant of the Tata Altroz Turbo Petrol has been recently spotted in flesh. Let's have a closer look at its images. 



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://www.91wheels.com/news-backend/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/Tata-Altroz-Turbo-Blue-3.jpg" alt="New Tata Altroz Turbo Petrol Blue Colour" class="wp-image-28076"/></figure>



This is the new blue colour variant of the upcoming BS6 Tata Altroz Turbo Petrol that has been recently spotted in flesh. This new blue colour variant might be of the Altroz Turbo Petrol might be officially known as the Marino Blue colour shade. It might be named as Tectonic Blue too as this new blue colour looks completely identical to the Nexon's Blue shade. The blue colour paint scheme of the Tata Nexon is officially known as Tectonic Blue. Talking about the other changes in this car, so as of now in pictures, the upcoming Tata Altroz Turbo Petrol looks completely identical to its non-turbo models. However, it does get a new iTurbo badge on the tailgate. Also, it might be possible that the company will add some sporty inserts inside and out on the production-spec model to differentiate it from the non-turbo variants.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://www.91wheels.com/news-backend/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/Tata-Altroz-Turbo-Blue-2.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-28077"/></figure>



Now, before we begin with the specification of this new turbo petrol engine, let me give you a quick description of the Altroz. So, the all-new Tata Altroz BS6 was launched in the Indian market in January 2020. Since launch, the Altroz has been offered with two different engine options. One of them is a BS6-compliant 1.2-litre, naturally-aspirated, three-cylinder Revotron petrol engine that churns out 86 PS of maximum power and 113 Nm of torque. It also gets a BS6-compliant 1.5-litre, four-cylinder, turbocharged Revotorq diesel engine. This diesel motor churns out 90 PS of power and 200 Nm of torque. Both the engines come mated to a five-speed manual gearbox and there is no automatic transmission on offer. While the diesel motor is very good, the naturally-aspirated three-cylinder petrol mill is average at best, considering it is a premium hatch and the rivals offer better petrol engines.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://www.91wheels.com/news-backend/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/Altroz-Turbo-spied.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-19244"/></figure>



So, Tata Motors will launch the Altroz Turbo. The upcoming Altroz Turbo will be powered by a BS6-compliant 1.2-litre turbocharged petrol engine. This turbo petrol motor will churn out 110 PS of maximum power at 5500 RPM and 140 Nm of peak torque between 1500-5500 RPM. The engine will come mated to Tata's TA65 manual gearbox which is a five-speed unit. The company will also introduce a 7-speed (DCT) dual-clutch transmission with the Altroz at a later point of time or else it might be now offered from the day-one of launch too. Finally, talking about the price, so the prices of the manual variants of the Tata Altroz will most likely start from Rs. 7.99 lakhs and it might go up to Rs. 8.75 lakhs. All prices stick to Ex-showroom Delhi.

Tata Altroz Turbo Petrol's New Blue Colour Spied in Flesh - Launch Soon?

Tata Motors ventured into the premium hatchback segment of the country earlier this year with the all-new Tata Altroz. The Altroz was launched in India in January 2020 and within a short period of time, it became a very popular car in the Indian market.&nbsp;There are several reasons to like this Tata hatchback but one of the main reasons for the Altroz's popularity is that it is the safest hatchback currently on sale in the country. Now, the company has recently teased the Tata Altroz on its social media handles. So, what's in the store? Will it be a new variant for the hatch, a special edition model or the highly-anticipated Altroz Turbo? 


<iframe width="560" height="315" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/_KOz9OVGXA4" frameborder="0" allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen=""></iframe>


Tata Motors has teased the Altroz online on all its social media handles with the hashtag #YourSantaAltroz. There is a tag of Coming Soon too and it hints that Tata Motors is planning to launch something special related to Altroz this Christmas. Now, let's make some guesstimates as what could be in store for us? As you can see in the above-embedded video, there is a red-coloured Altroz which zoom past away. As the Altroz is moving at a fast pace, it hints that it might be the upcoming highly-anticipated Tata Altroz Turbo Petrol. The Altroz Turbo will be powered by a BS6-compliant 1.2-litre turbocharged petrol engine, borrowed from the Nexon but in a different state of tune. 



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://www.91wheels.com/news-backend/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/altroz-16.jpg" alt="Tata Altroz Teased" class="wp-image-14146"/></figure>

This new turbo petrol motor will churn out around 110 PS of max. power at 5500 RPM and 140 Nm of peak torque between 1500-5500 RPM. The engine will come mated to a five-speed manual gearbox. Tata Motors will introduce a 7-speed (DCT) dual-clutch transmission too with the Altroz, most likely at a later point of time - by the first quarter of 2021. Next, our assumption is that the teased car might be a Special Edition variant of the Tata Altroz. That's because the Altroz will be completing its first anniversary next month in January 2021 and so Tata Motors might launch a celebratory edition variant of the car with some cosmetic upgrades. Finally, there is a possibility that it might be the upcoming <a href="https://www.91wheels.com/news/tata-altroz-xm-plus-launched-in-india/">Altroz XM+</a> Diesel but with some cosmetic tweaks.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://www.91wheels.com/news-backend/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/Tata-Altroz-XM.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-24619"/></figure>



The Tata Altroz XM+ Petrol was launched in November 2020 to boost the sales of the car during the festive season. The XM+ variant of the Altroz is the most value for money variant of the car and it gets a lot of goodies too. Upon its launch, the company said that the Tata Altroz XM+ Diesel will be launched in December 2020. It will be powered by the same BS6-compliant 1.5-litre, four-cylinder Revotorq diesel engine that powers the other trims of Altroz too. This motor churns out 90 PS of maximum power at 4000 RPM and 200 Nm of peak torque between 1250-3000 RPM. The oil-burner comes mated to a five-speed manual gearbox only. The Petrol variants of the Tata Altroz are powered by a BS6-compliant 1.2-litre, three-cylinder mill.

Tata Altroz Teased Online; What It Can Be - Special Edition Variant or Altroz Turbo?

The Altroz is one of those cars which Tata Motors is really proud of. In fact, Tata motors claim it to be the "Gold Standard" when it comes to premium hatchbacks sold in India. Is Altroz is truly the "Gold Standard"? This is something for you all to decide once present the Pros and Cons of the Tata Altroz in this article.



Before we share the Pros and Cons of the Tata Altroz, make sure to join our&nbsp;<a rel="noreferrer noopener" href="https://t.me/joinchat/VgWABBkUASe-iAiMajaRRg" target="_blank">exclusive 91Wheels Telegram</a>&nbsp;group where we share the latest information about the Indian Automotive Industry.



Pros of the Tata Altroz 



Safety



 The Altroz is indeed one of the safest premium hatchbacks out on sale in India at the moment. With a rating of 5 stars in the Global NCAP, the Altroz does go one up over the other competitors in the segment when it comes to the safety aspect. Additionally, a host of safety features is standard across all the variants of the Altroz. Some of these include ABS with EBD, CSC, ISOFIX mounts, dual airbags and impact sensing auto door unlock.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://www.91wheels.com/news-backend/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/Tata-Altroz-NCAP-1.jpg" alt="Altroz Safety" class="wp-image-1812"/></figure>



Space and practicality 



This is another parameter where the Altroz scores over the rest of the competition. It not only has doors that have a very wide reach but also has an almost flat floor. Thus the rear seat can not only seat 3 people easily but also means that entering and exiting is easy. Also at 340 litres, boot space is second only to the Honda Jazz. This makes the Altroz not only a comfortable and spacious car but a practical one as well.



Diesel option 



The Altroz was the first premium hatchback to come with a diesel engine that was complying with the BS6 emission norms. In fact, it is one of the 2 premium hatchbacks that actually offer a diesel powertrain. It comes with the 1.5 Revotorq diesel engine that puts out 90 PS of power and 200 Nm of torque. This engine is not only punchy but is very frugal as well.

Exterior looks 



The Altroz is one of the better-looking premium hatches sold on the market today and there is no doubt about that. While the looks are very unique, they are not really polarising unlike some vehicles out in the market. The "Impact 2.0" design makes the car look upmarket when compared to the competition.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://www.91wheels.com/news-backend/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/Tata-Altroz.jpg" alt="Altroz exteriors
" class="wp-image-19443"/></figure>



Cons of the Tata Altroz



Lack of powertrain choices 



This continues to the biggest complaint since the Altroz got launched. The current 1.2 naturally aspirated 3 cylinder is absolutely underpowered and does not do justice to a car of this calibre. This issue is also accompanied by the lack of an automatic gearbox expectation. While a turbocharged petrol engine and a dual-clutch automatic are in the works, Tata should have launched them earlier.

Quality of the interior trim 



As much as we liked the exterior of the Altroz for its looks and build quality, we cannot say the same for the interior. The general quality of the interior trim is not that great and feels cheap. This is something that does not really do justice to the "Gold Standard" of hatchbacks. 



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://www.91wheels.com/news-backend/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/Tata-Altroz-1.jpg" alt="Altroz pros cons" class="wp-image-19444"/></figure>



Dodgy aftersales and general issues 



While many Tata motors dealers and service centres have improved by leaps and bounds when it has come to after-sales experiences for the customers, they still have a long way to go. Tata motors should also look to improve their quality control department in order to ensure that faulty cars don't ruin the good work of their cars.



Conclusion The Tata Altroz is indeed a very compelling car. It looks good, is safe, has good driving dynamics and is spacious and practical as well. While fairly competent in the diesel form, it needs a turbocharged petrol engine and an automatic variant to truly achieve the "Gold Standard" that it claims to be.

Pros and Cons of Tata Altroz - Best Tata hatchback till date?

Nissan has finally stepped its shoes into the compact SUV segment and much to our surprise, it is the most affordable in the Indian Automotive Industry right now. Yes, the base version that is the XE is launched at a surprising Rs 4.99 lakh, ex-showroom, Delhi. The price is such that it even keeps some premium hatchbacks off the bay for a while. We thought of comparing the features of Base Nissan Magnite vs Tata Altroz XE and see which one should you pick for yourself! Please note that the prices of Nissan Magnite will be Rs 5.54 lakh post-January 1, 2021.

There is no doubt that the Tata Altroz clearly excels in the safety department because of the 5-star crash rating at the Global NCAP. Tata Altroz also comes with corner stability control while the Nissan Magnite reserves itself with the Anti-roll bar and rear defogger. Also, both cars come with standard safety features as you can see from the table above.

We Indians love cars with updated features and both the base versions of these cars are fairly equipped. While the Nissan Magnite excels with the all-four power windows, front, rear headrests and rear wiper, Tata Altroz makes its way with the drive modes, central locking, umbrella holder and the larger LCD display in the speedometer console. Both the cars get manual AC and tilt-adjustable steering wheel.

The rise of SUVs in the Indian market is an all-time high and with the launch of Nissan Magnite at a starting price of Rs 4.99 lakh shocked several carmakers too. Dimension-wise, Nissan Magnite wins the competition single-handedly. It is longer, wider and taller than the Altroz and also takes on the bumpy roads easily because of the 205 mm ground clearance as opposed to the 165 mm found in the Tata Altroz. Also, 16-inch wheels are found in Magnite as compared to the 15-inchers in the Altroz. While Nissan Magnite loses out on the smaller boot space but wins the competition with its 50 kg load carrying capacity, thanks to the roof rails. 



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://www.91wheels.com/news-backend/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/WhatsApp-Image-2020-12-09-at-15.28.00-2.jpeg" alt="" class="wp-image-27420"/></figure>

In terms of power and figures, both the cars get a three-cylinder naturally aspirated petrol engine. The 1.2L of Altroz generates 86 PS with 113 Nm of peak torque while the Magnite churns 72 PS with 96 Nm of peak torque from a 1.0-litre unit. The ARAI certified fuel efficiency sticks to 19.05 kmpl for the Altroz nd 18.75 kmpl. The 40-litres fuel tank capacity of Nissan Magnite takes an edge of Tata Altroz's 37 litres one.

Verdict



The new Nissan Magnite XE is cheaper but provides decent features over the Tata Altroz XE. The engine of the Magnite can be a no factor for some but for Rs 4.99 lakh you get a compact SUV for yourself. So which one of the two will be your pick? The base version of Nissan Magnite or the Tata Altroz?

Base Nissan Magnite XE vs Tata Altroz XE - Detailed Feature Comparison

In our recent mileage test on the highway, we picked up the safest car present in the premium hatchback segment, yes, the Tata Altroz diesel. Like our earlier tests, we drove it for 200+ kilometres but this time on Taj Expressway and it delivered us 27.41 kmpl. 



Before we share you the video of this Tata Altroz Diesel Highway Mileage, make sure you are a member of our <a href="https://t.me/joinchat/VgWABBkUASe-iAiMajaRRg" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" aria-label="exclusive 91Wheels Telegram (opens in a new tab)">exclusive 91Wheels Telegram</a> group where we bring you the latest updates from the Indian Automotive Industry. 


<iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/U4eUEmBLkaQ" width="640" height="360" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen"></iframe>


We started our trip by filling up fuel from a petrol station located in Noida and then moved our way through Taj Expressway. The well laid out highway is one of the best because of less traffic and also with a good speed limit of 100 kmph.

We put the car in cruise mode at 90 kmph with AC running at 24-degree Celcius and after 20 km, the Altroz diesel gave us a mileage of 29.4 kmpl. This mileage at the start of the trip was extremely good and we knew that it will deliver us more as we crunch more kilometres on the odometer. 



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://www.91wheels.com/news-backend/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/Tata-Altroz.jpg" alt="Tata Altroz Diesel Fuel Economy Highway Image" class="wp-image-26948"/></figure>



As we reached the 50 km mark, we played with the cruise speed and set at 92 kmph with AC running at 24 degrees and it showed us 30 kmpl on the display. Even with the absence of 6th gear, the economy was great. This explains how this 1.5-litre detuned unit from Nexon is not only frugal but also fuel-efficient. 



This figure was going smooth until our first toll came. At the Jewar toll, there was some traffic which dropped down our fuel economy by 1 kmpl. Nonetheless, it clearly gives you guys a glimpse of the real-world fuel economy at highway situations.

Another thing which we did today to follow the strict highway regime was that we took a break at 100 km mark to enjoy our snacks. Well, we got it packed and ate it in our Altroz. Also, we switched to Eco mode after completing the 100 km mark to give you an idea if the economy gets higher or not. Do remember that the last economy was 29 kmpl. 



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://www.91wheels.com/news-backend/wp-content/uploads/2020/12/Altroz.jpg" alt="Tata Altroz Diesel Highway Mileage Image" class="wp-image-26950"/></figure>



At 200 km mark, the average fuel economy showed in the MID was 28.8 kmpl which is great according to a car of this size. We complete the rest 32 km with the same set speed of 90 kmph but this time at our last leg 5 km we entered the city because we wanted to fill in via the same fuel pump. 



Like before, we went for the auto cut method only, and this time the total fuel-filled was 8.46 litres, and the total distance covered by us was 231.9 km. So the average fuel economy came out to be 27.411 kmpl while the tripmeter showed us 28.9 kmpl. Well, this is less than 5% error so that happens.

Tata Motors Takes Another Initiative To Deliver Cars In A Safety Bubble

Tata Altroz is one of the latest offerings by Tata and the vehicle rivals against the likes of cars like the Hyundai i20, Maruti Baleno, VW Polo, Toyota Glanza, and Honda Jazz. It is also worth noting that the car scored a perfect five-star rating in the GNCAP safety crash tests. The buyers of the Altroz have an option to choose from two engine options - 1.2-L petrol, and a 1.5-L diesel engine. While the petrol engine is mediocre in terms of performance, it is the diesel engine that impressed us with its power and fuel economy. If you are in the market to buy a diesel hatchback and wondering how much can this vehicle deliver in day to day usage, check out our Tata Altroz diesel city fuel economy run.

Just like always, the tank of the vehicle was filled to the brim and the fuel economy meter was reset after which the fuel economy run was started. During the fuel economy run, we drove the vehicle in mixed conditions which involved city roads and open roads. After completing almost 130 km, the fuel economy meter displayed a fuel economy figure of 21 kmpl and the tank was again filled to the max. For those who are not aware, the tank full to tank full method to measure the fuel economy of a vehicle.

After completing the run, the Altroz diesel sipped in around 5.19L of diesel. Simple calculations revealed that the Altroz delivered a fuel economy of almost 25 kmpl (24.7 kmpl) after completing 128.4 km in the city. Considering the size of the vehicle, the overall fuel economy delivered by this 1.5-L diesel engine is impressive.

Tata Altroz Diesel City Fuel Economy Run - Can It Deliver 25 KMPL?

Ever since Tata launched the Altroz in January 2020, it has received immense love from the Indian market. The design, features and the most important part, the strong bodyshell. Yes, it is the only premium hatchback to receive 5 stars Global NCAP rating. But we are not showcasing why Tata Altroz is better but bringing you a spec comparison of two premium hatchbacks. Yes, the 2020 Hyundai i20 vs Tata Altroz comparison of their styling, features and most importantly how they look when they are together. Yes, we have the real images for that! 



Before we go any further and share details of 2020 Hyundai i20 vs Tata Altroz spec comparison, make sure you are a member of our <a rel="noreferrer noopener" aria-label="exclusive 91Wheels Telegram (opens in a new tab)" href="https://t.me/joinchat/VgWABBkUASe-iAiMajaRRg" target="_blank">exclusive 91Wheels Telegram</a> group where we share the latest information about the Indian Automotive Industry.

<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://www.91wheels.com/news-backend/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/2020-Hyundai-i20-vs-Tata-Altroz-1.jpg" alt="2020 Hyundai i20 vs Tata Altroz Image" class="wp-image-25705"/></figure>



<figure class="wp-block-table"><table class=""><tbody><tr><td>Dimensions</td><td>2020 Hyundai i20</td><td>Tata Altroz</td></tr><tr><td>Length</td><td>3995 mm</td><td>3990 mm</td></tr><tr><td>Width</td><td>1775 mm</td><td>1755 mm</td></tr><tr><td>Height</td><td>1505 mm</td><td>1523 mm</td></tr><tr><td>Ground Clearance</td><td>170 mm</td><td>165 mm</td></tr><tr><td>Wheelbase</td><td>2580 mm</td><td>2501 mm</td></tr><tr><td>Boot space</td><td>311 litres</td><td>345 litres</td></tr><tr><td>Wheel size</td><td>16-inches</td><td>16-inches</td></tr></tbody></table></figure>



As you can see from the image above, both the cars look astonishingly well on their own. Hyundai design language is sharper and packs in a more angular approach to the i20 while the Altroz retains the flamboyant style. However, it is when you look closer at the spec sheet and feel that the new i20 is better in legroom and provides a generous space inside the cabin, thanks to the longer wheelbase. 



<h6>Also Read: <a href="https://www.91wheels.com/news/tata-altroz-turbo-vs-hyundai-i20-you-should-pick-what-spec-comparo/">Tata Altroz Turbo vs Hyundai i20 - You Should Pick What? Spec Comparo</a></h6>



The new i20 is also wider thus providing more shoulder space and both the cars get the same wheel size of 195/55 R16. Where the Altroz gets a plus one is in the boot carrying capacity which is 34 litres more than the new i20. The new i20 is also shorter in height at 1505 mm whereas the Altroz stands tall at 1523 mm. 



Engine Details



<figure class="wp-block-table"><table class=""><tbody><tr><td>Model</td><td>Hyundai i20</td><td> Tata Altroz</td></tr><tr><td>Petrol Engine</td><td>1.2-litre NA</td><td>1.2-litre NA</td></tr><tr><td>Number Of Cylinder</td><td>4</td><td> 3 </td></tr><tr><td>Max.

Even though both the cars come with a 1.2-litre naturally aspirated petrol engine, the extra cylinder in i20 really makes a difference. For the 5-speed manual, the 1.2L naturally aspirated petrol makes as much as 82 bhp while the Tata Altroz makes 85 bhp. For those looking for an automatic, i20 is the only option left which gets a CVT gearbox. Also, in its CVT, it makes as much as 87 bhp. 



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://www.91wheels.com/news-backend/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/2020-Hyundai-i20-vs-Tata-Altroz-2.jpg" alt="2020 Hyundai i20 vs Tata Altroz Image" class="wp-image-25706"/></figure>



Hyundai also provides a turbo petrol option for those seeking performance. This 1.0L turbo petrol is the same unit which we see in Hyundai Venue and Verna. This unit generates 118 bhp with 172 Nm of peak torque. Hyundai is providing a 6-speed iMT and a 7-speed DCT for the higher variants. Surely, a 6-speed MT is missed but we are sure that the Indian market will accept the trend of semi-automatic now. 



Diesel Engine



<figure class="wp-block-table"><table class=""><tbody><tr><td>Model</td><td>Hyundai i20 Turbo</td><td>Tata Altroz</td></tr><tr><td>Petrol Engine</td><td>1.5-litre turbocharged</td><td>1.5-litre turbocharged</td></tr><tr><td>Number Of Cylinder</td><td>4</td><td>4</td></tr><tr><td>Max.

We have also driven the diesel i20 and needless to say, the 1.5-litre is surely a great replacement from the earlier 1.4-litre. This is the same engine which is used in Creta, Verna and Venue. However, for both Venue and i20, it is detuned to make 99 bhp and 240 Nm of peak torque. The engine is refined, enriched in performance and now gets a linear power delivery. So both the enthusiasts and people stuck in traffic are happy now! #likethevideoifyougotthepun

We have also tested the fuel economy of the new i20 and we achieved figures of above 30 kmpl which is far better than the claimed ARAI. For instance, we were driving on open highways and there we were cruising at 85 km/h and the RPM level was just at 1600 which is good. Also, the 6-speed MT helps than the 5-speed present in the Altroz. Tata Altroz packs in the detuned version of 1.5L diesel present in Nexon which makes 89 bhp and 200 Nm of peak torque. 



Prices 



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://www.91wheels.com/news-backend/wp-content/uploads/2020/11/2020-Hyundai-i20-vs-Tata-Altroz-3.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-25707"/></figure>



<figure class="wp-block-table"><table class=""><tbody><tr><td>Model</td><td>Petrol Prices</td><td>Diesel Prices</td></tr><tr><td>2020 Hyundai i20</td><td>Rs 6.80 lakh - Rs 11.18 lakh</td><td>Rs 8.20 lakh - Rs 10.74 lakh</td></tr><tr><td>Maruti Baleno</td><td>Rs 5.44 lakh - Rs 7.89 lakh</td><td>Rs 6.99 lakh - Rs 9.09 lakh</td></tr></tbody></table></figure>



Yes, the internet is harsh on the prices of the new i20 but you have to understand that Hyundai has now discontinued the Era variant and Magna is their base variant. It is the new i20 which packs in more segment features and also comfort and convenience list which the Altroz surely lacks. 



Verdict



If you are a price-conscious buyer and still want to looks for a premium hatchback then the Altroz will suit your style and deliver the need. However, if you are in the market to stand out and looking for a car with an updated design, multiple engines and transmission options along with top of the line features then i20 is the one for you. Of course, with the popularity of the latter, it will surely surpass the sales of the Tata Altroz which was the third best selling hatchback for the previous month.

Hyundai recently launched the new Hyundai i20 in the Indian market. The new i20 has been priced from Rs 6.79 lakh and directly lock its horns with the cars like the Tata Altroz, Maruti Baleno, and VW Polo. Having said that, let me also share that the new i20 also features a new 1.5-L diesel and a new 1.0-L GDi engine in its line-up. It is worth noting that the new i20 and the Tata Altroz are the only two cars which come with a diesel engine. If you are wondering which of the premium hatchbacks is better for you, here is a quick 2020 Hyundai i20 BS6 vs Tata Altroz vs Maruti Baleno vs VW Polo spec comparison to help you decide better.

2020 Hyundai i20 BS6 vs Tata Altroz vs Maruti Baleno vs VW Polo

Tata Altroz is a very popular car in the Indian market. The Altroz is the first premium hatchback from Tata Motors and it was launched in India earlier this year, in January 2020 to be precise. In January, it was launched in five variants but now the company is planning to soon launch a new variant of the Altroz. The XM+ variant of the Tata Altroz will be launched very soon and it will be loaded with a lot of features. Here are all the details about it.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://www.91wheels.com/news-backend/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/Tata-Altroz-XM.jpg" alt="Tata Altroz XM+ Variant" class="wp-image-24619"/></figure>



The new XM+ variant of the Tata Altroz will slot in between its XM and XT variants. As we all know Altroz is a premium hatch and so it rivals against the Maruti Suzuki Baleno, Honda Jazz, Toyota Glanza and Hyundai i20 in India. The launch of the new-gen i20 is just around the corner and so Tata Motors might be planning to launch this new variant to lure the prospective buyers. Talking about the new add-ons and features in this XM+ variant, it will get steering-mounted controls, R16 wheels with full wheel covers, etc.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://www.91wheels.com/news-backend/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/altroz-11.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-14147"/></figure>

The major feature upgrade in the XM+ variant will be the addition of a touchscreen system. It will get a big 7.0-inch floating-type touchscreen infotainment system by Harman with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay connectivity. The new XM+ variant will also get voice alerts and voice command recognition and a remote foldable key. These feature additions with the launch of the new mid-spec XM+ variant will surely make it a great buying package as we know Tata is going to price it very aggressively.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://www.91wheels.com/news-backend/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/Tata-Altroz-XM-2.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-24620"/></figure>



Talking about the engine options, the Altroz XM+ will be currently launched only with a petrol engine option and the launch of the oil-burner will follow in December. It will get a BS6-compliant 1.2-litre, naturally-aspirated, three-cylinder Revotron petrol engine. This motor churns out 86 PS of power and 113 Nm of peak torque. It comes mated to a 5-speed manual gearbox. It will also get a 1.5-litre, four-cylinder Revotorq diesel engine. This motor churns out 90 PS of power and 200 Nm of peak torque. The oil-burner comes mated to a 5-speed manual gearbox.

Tata Altroz XM+ Variant Launch Soon; Features List Out - All Details

Tata Motors launched the Altroz premium hatchback in India in January this year. The Altroz is the first premium hatchback from the house of this Bombay-based home-grown car manufacturer. Upon launch, the Altroz got naturally-aspirated petrol and a turbocharged diesel engine. Now, Tata is planning to soon launch a turbocharged petrol version of the Altroz. The upcoming Tata Altroz Turbo Petrol has been spied once again in India, this time without camouflage. Here are all the details about its launch and price.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://www.91wheels.com/news-backend/wp-content/uploads/2020/10/Altroz-Turbo-Spied-1.jpg" alt="Tata Altroz Turbo Petrol Price" class="wp-image-24089"/></figure>



As you can see in the above image, recently the upcoming Tata Altroz Turbo Petrol was spied. This time, the test mule was not wearing any camouflage and one can also see the iTurbo badge on the tailgate of the car. Currently, the Tata Altroz gets two BS6-compliant engine options in India. It gets a 1.5-litre, four-cylinder, turbocharged Revotorq diesel engine. This diesel motor churns out 90 PS of power and 200 Nm of torque. The oil-burner comes mated to a 5-speed manual transmission. The Altroz also gets a 1.2-litre, naturally-aspirated, three-cylinder Revotron petrol engine. 



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://www.91wheels.com/news-backend/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/altroz-1.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-20313"/></figure>



This naturally-aspirated petrol motor of the Altroz churns out 86 PS of max. power and 113 Nm of peak torque. It also comes mated to a 5-speed manual gearbox and there is no automatic transmission on offer. The diesel motor of the Altroz is impressive but its three-cylinder naturally-aspirated petrol motor feels a bit underwhelming, considering it is a premium hatch. So, the company will plonk in a turbocharged petrol engine in the Altroz to make it a better all-round package. The turbo petrol motor will only be offered in the top-spec trims of the Altroz. It will get a 1.2-litre turbocharged petrol engine, borrowed from the Nexon but in a different state of tune.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://www.91wheels.com/news-backend/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/Tata-Altroz-1.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-19444"/></figure>

This turbo petrol motor will churn out 110 PS of power at 5500 RPM and 140 Nm of peak torque between 1500-5500 RPM. It will come mated to a 5-speed manual gearbox. The company will also introduce a 7-speed (DCT) dual-clutch transmission with the Altroz at a later point of time. The Altroz is a great car inside and out and there are no two ways about it. But, its underwhelming petrol engine was not appreciated by many people. The introduction of the turbo petrol motor will make it a really good package and will surely boost its sales too. Recently, the price of the turbo petrol variants of the Tata Altroz also leaked on the internet. Have a look:



<figure class="wp-block-table"><table class=""><tbody><tr><td>Variant</td><td>Price&nbsp;(Ex-showroom Delhi)</td></tr><tr><td>XT</td><td>Rs. 7.99 lakhs</td></tr><tr><td>XT (O)</td><td>Rs. 8.19 lakhs</td></tr><tr><td>XZ</td><td>Rs. 8.59 lakhs</td></tr><tr><td>XZ (O)</td><td>Rs. 8.75 lakhs</td></tr></tbody></table></figure>

<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://www.91wheels.com/news-backend/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/altroz-16.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-19247"/></figure>

As you can see, Tata Altroz is no doubt the feature-rich when compared with the Nexon, however, you do get some things which are exclusive for the compact SUV only. Even though in a base variant. Like the projector headlights, safety features like hill hold control, ESP and traction control, an all digital instrument cluster, sunglass holder, LED taillights and more. 



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://www.91wheels.com/news-backend/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/nexon-4-2.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-20081"/></figure>



Where the Altroz stands out is with the touchscreen infotainment system with 6-speakers and offering modern connectivity features like Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. However, the same can be done for Nexon via aftermarket shops and there you can set your budget for the same and get additional things too.

Also, the reverse camera from the outside is much cheaper than the factory fitted. A lot of people buy the base variant and opt for the aftermarket accessories since they can customize their vehicle according to their taste. 



<figure class="wp-block-table"><table class=""><tbody><tr><td>Model</td><td>Tata Altroz</td><td>Tata Nexon</td></tr><tr><td>Version</td><td>1.2 XT</td><td>1.2 XE</td></tr><tr><td>Length (mm)</td><td>3990</td><td>3993</td></tr><tr><td>Width (mm)</td><td>1775</td><td>1811</td></tr><tr><td>Height (mm)</td><td>1523</td><td>1606</td></tr><tr><td>Ground Clearance (mm)</td><td>165</td><td>209</td></tr><tr><td>Wheelbase (mm)</td><td>2501</td><td>2498</td></tr><tr><td>Boot Space (L)</td><td>245</td><td>350</td></tr><tr><td>Tyre Size</td><td>195/55 R16</td><td>195/60 R16</td></tr><tr><td>Fuel Tank (L)</td><td>37</td><td>44</td></tr></tbody></table></figure>



The Nexon offers more shoulder room inside the cabin and a better ground clearance when you are tackling bad roads. Nexon's 209 mm of ground clearance is better than 165 mm of the Altroz. Also, Nexon provides better fuel tank capacity of 44 litres which means you can churn out more kilometres. Another advantage is of the boot space which is 350 litres as compared to 345 litres present in the Altroz. 



Verdict 



The decision clearly depends on you where you are looking for, a base variant of compact SUV which you can customise according to your own needs or a mid-variant XT of Altroz where you need not to add any accessory. Both the cars offer Global NCAP rating of 5 stars so you need not worry about the safety but performance wise, the Nexon has got you covered.

Hyundai i20

We all know that the new i20 is in for a generation change which is expected to launch in the festive season. The premium hatchback recorded total sales of 9852 units for last month and the annual overall sales are marginally down by just 3%. Like the Baleno, the BS6 i20 too is offered with a 1.2L petrol engine. However, with the new one in the upcoming, we will see several engine options and it will be feature loaded. 



Tata Altroz 



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://www.91wheels.com/news-backend/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/altroz-16.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-14146"/></figure>



It is good to see the Indian carmaker securing top 3 spots in the premium hatchback sales. Tata has been climbing up the latter with a motto - Safety First. The Altroz is the only hatchback in the segment to come with Global NCAP safety rating of 5 stars. The hatchback was launched earlier this year and has recorded a total sales of 5592 for the last months. Also, it gets two engine options - a 1.2L petrol and 1.5L diesel. Tata also plans to introduce a turbo petrol engine soon.

Toyota's share in the premium hatchback segment is all because of the Glanza that is the rebadged Baleno. Same styling, features and even the powertrain options. The only thing with the Glanza is more warranty and it is cheaper by a few thousand bucks than Baleno. Toyota recorded total sales of 2572 units for last month. 



Honda Jazz



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://www.91wheels.com/news-backend/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/2020-BS6-Honda-Jazz-2.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-19639"/></figure>



With the BS6 version, Honda has managed to sell about 748 units of Jazz for last month when compared to 649 for the same month in last year. The overall growth accounts for 15% and it is the most expensive premium hatchback on sale right now. It is only available with a 1.2L naturally aspirated petrol engine right now.

Top 10 Upcoming BS6 Cars in India in October 2020 - Audi Q2 To Mercedes-Benz EQC!

Tata Motors ventured into the Premium Hatchback segment of India with the launch of the Tata Altroz early this year. Upon launch, the Altroz got naturally-aspirated petrol and a turbocharged diesel engine. We all know that Tata Motors has been planning for a long time to introduce a new turbo petrol motor for this premium hatch. Finally, it seems that its launch is just around the corner as the Specs and Price of the upcoming Tata Altroz Turbo Petrol have leaked online. Here we have for you all the details about it.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://www.91wheels.com/news-backend/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/Altroz-Turbo-spied.jpg" alt="Tata Altroz Turbo Petrol Price " class="wp-image-19244"/><figcaption>You can see the Turbo badge on the tailgate</figcaption></figure>



First of all, let's discuss why Tata Motors is bringing a new turbocharged petrol engine for the Altroz? So, the answer is that at present, the Altroz gets a 1.5-litre, four-cylinder, turbocharged Revotorq diesel engine. This diesel motor churns out 90 PS of power and 200 Nm of torque. It comes mated to a 5-speed manual transmission. It also gets a 1.2-litre, naturally-aspirated, three-cylinder Revotron petrol engine. This NA petrol motor churns out 86 PS of power and 113 Nm of torque. It is also mated to a 5-speed manual gearbox and there is no automatic transmission on offer.



The diesel motor of the Altroz is too good but the three-cylinder naturally-aspirated petrol motor of the premium hatch feels a bit underwhelming. Thus, the Altroz truly needs a turbocharged petrol motor as it is a premium hatch and the rivals offer better powertrain options. The Tata Altroz is no doubt a great car inside and out but until now, its powertrain failed to lure the buyers. Thus, to make it a better all-round package, the company will plonk in a turbocharged petrol engine in the Altroz. The turbo petrol motor will only be offered in the top-spec trims of the Altroz.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://www.91wheels.com/news-backend/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/Tata-Altroz-1.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-19444"/></figure>

Talking about the powertrain, so it will get a 1.2-litre turbocharged petrol engine. This is the same engine that also powers the Tata Nexon but it will be available in a lower state of tune. This 1.2-litre turbo petrol motor will churn out 110 PS of power at 5500 RPM and 140 Nm of peak torque between 1500-5500 RPM. It will come mated to Tata's TA65 manual gearbox which is a 5-speed unit. The company will also introduce a 7-speed (DCT) dual-clutch transmission with the Altroz at a later point of time. Now, let's have a look at the variant-wise (leaked) price of the upcoming Tata Altroz Turbo Petrol:



<figure class="wp-block-table"><table class=""><tbody><tr><td>Variant</td><td>Price (Ex-showroom Delhi)</td></tr><tr><td>XT</td><td>Rs. 7.99 lakhs</td></tr><tr><td>XT (O)</td><td>Rs. 8.19 lakhs </td></tr><tr><td>XZ</td><td>Rs. 8.59 lakhs </td></tr><tr><td>XZ (O)</td><td>Rs. 8.75 lakhs </td></tr></tbody></table></figure>

Tata Altroz Turbo Petrol Price and Specs Leaked Ahead of Launch - Details

It has been in news since a really long time that Tata Motors is working on the Turbo Petrol model of the Tata Altroz. The Altroz is the first Premium Hatchback from the house of this Indian carmaker and it was launched in January this year. Now, the company is planning to soon launch the Turbo Petrol model of this premium hatch and so we have got some more details for you about this upcoming Tata Altroz Turbo Petrol.

The main question arises why a turbocharged petrol engine? So, at present, the Tata Altroz gets a 1.5-litre, four-cylinder, turbocharged Revotorq diesel engine. This oil-burner churns out 90 PS of power and 200 Nm of torque. It comes mated to a 5-speed manual transmission. Then we have a 1.2-litre, naturally-aspirated, three-cylinder Revotron petrol engine. This NA petrol motor churns out 86 PS of power and 113 Nm of torque. It is also paired to a 5-speed manual gearbox. There is no automatic transmission on offer. 



The Altroz truly needs a turbocharged petrol engine as the three-cylinder naturally-aspirated petrol motor of the Altroz feels a bit underwhelming, considering it is a premium hatch and the rivals have better powertrains. The Altroz is a great car inside and out but the powertrain fails to lure the buyers. So, to make it a more appealing overall package, the company will plonk in a turbocharged petrol engine in the Altroz. Now, fresh details from <a rel="noreferrer noopener" aria-label="CarDekho (opens in a new tab)" href="https://www.cardekho.com/india-car-news/exclusive-tata-altroz-turbo-petrol-will-offer-110ps-of-power-launch-soon-26118.htm" target="_blank">CarDekho</a> have emerged confirming its specifications.

The new Altroz Turbo will get a 1.2-litre turbocharged petrol engine. It will get the same engine that powers the Tata Nexon but in a lower state of tune. This 1.2-litre turbo petrol motor will churn out 110 PS of power at 5500 RPM and 141 Nm of peak torque between 1750-4000 RPM. It will come mated to a 5-speed manual gearbox and it will get a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission (DCT) too.

Upcoming Tata Altroz Turbo Petrol New Details Revealed; Launch Soon!

Tata Altroz is the most talked premium hatchback of its segment and buyers were not so fond of its pricing. The diesel range of the Altroz was priced at Rs 1.6 lakh premium and that's the caveat. To improve the sales of Altroz diesel, Tata Motors has now reduced the prices by Rs 40,000. All the variants of the Tata Altroz diesel see the 40,000 price drop, except for the XE trim.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://www.91wheels.com/news-backend/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/Tata-Altroz.jpg" alt="Altroz diesel price drop" class="wp-image-19443"/></figure>



The reason for the low sales of Tata Altroz diesel is not entirely correct as the dealer dispatch of Altroz diesel was started a couple of months ago. With the 1.6 lakh premium over the feeble 1.2-litre petrol, it was a tough sell unless someone only wants a diesel. However, our money has always been on the diesel as that is more potent.



<figure class="wp-block-table"><table class=""><tbody><tr><td>Variants</td><td>New Price</td><td>Old Price</td><td>Difference</td></tr><tr><td>XE</td><td>6.99 lakh</td><td>6.99 lakh</td><td>-</td></tr><tr><td>XM</td><td>7.50 lakh</td><td>7.90 lakh</td><td>40,000</td></tr><tr><td>XT</td><td>8.19 lakh</td><td>8.59 lakh</td><td>40,000</td></tr><tr><td>XZ</td><td>8.79 lakh</td><td>9.19 lakh</td><td>40,000</td></tr><tr><td>XZ (O)</td><td>8.95 lakh</td><td>9.35 lakh</td><td>40,000</td></tr></tbody></table></figure>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://www.91wheels.com/news-backend/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/altroz-16.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-19247"/></figure>



Having a displacement of 1500cc, the turbo-diesel has been detuned to 90 PS and mated to a 5-speed. In the Nexon, the engine produces 110 PS and 260 Nm of torque, mated to a 6-speed manual. In the Altroz, the same unit produces 90 PS and 200 Nm of torque, mated to a 5-speed manual. Moreover, the 1.2-litre petrol engine has been carried over from the Tigor and it produces the same 86 PS of power and 113 Nm of torque, mated to a 5-speed gearbox.

We have waited long for the turbo incarnation of the 1.2 petrol but there is still no legit launch date from Tata Motors. As the diesel engine of the Altroz is now affordable, it should be your pick. Although the price gap is still over 1.2 lakh, the diesel engine will bring better driveability, power and fuel economy on the table. All the diesel variants of the Altroz have seen a price drop of Rs 40,000 except for the XE. The XE variant still carries the 1.6 lakh premium price tag and it should not be your pick thanks to lack of features and skinny wheels.

Tata Altroz Diesel Gets Upto Rs 40,000 Price Drop

Tata Altroz was first showcased at the Geneva Motor Show and since then it has been applauded for its unique styling. Fast forward to 2020, Tata launched the Altroz in both petrol and diesel making it the first premium hatchback to come with a BS6 compliant diesel motor. Here, in our first look review of Tata Altroz we will be sharing about the exterior and interior design, its features, engines and transmission, prices and it's competition. 



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://www.91wheels.com/news-backend/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/Tata-Altroz.jpg" alt="Tata Altroz First Look Review Image" class="wp-image-19443"/><figcaption>Tata Altroz First Look Review</figcaption></figure>



<h5>Exteriors</h5>



In terms of exterior designing, Tata bags the 10/10 marks and complies with the old school art along with keeping the Millenials happy with the looks. The raised headlight and foglights along with the floating bumper give it a unique look to the eyes. 



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://www.91wheels.com/news-backend/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/altroz-16.jpg" alt="Tata Altroz First Look Review Image" class="wp-image-19247"/></figure>



Moving towards the side profile, Tata ditches the handles on the door and shifts it next to the window. The alloy wheels give it a macho appeal and 16-inch wheels with dual-tone design really stand out from the crowd. At the rear, the taillight panel is in black which further enhances the look in the night. The Altroz badging in that particular section gives a premium appeal to the hatchback.

<h5>Interiors</h5>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://www.91wheels.com/news-backend/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/Tata-Altroz-1.jpg" alt="Tata Altroz First Look Review Image" class="wp-image-19444"/></figure>



Based on the ALFA (Agile, Light, Flexible and Advanced) architecture, this underpins several future models under various body styles. The doors, both front and rear open at 90 degrees which helps the passengers to get in and out easily. The interiors get finished in a dual-tone shade of grey and silver which brings in a unique charm in the detailing. The cabin feels quite airy when you are sitting inside. 



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://www.91wheels.com/news-backend/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/Tata-Altroz-2.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-19445"/></figure>



Being the widest in its segment, Altroz provides a good shoulder room to its passengers. Moving to the rear seats, both the leg and knee room is sufficient although the headroom might be an issue for tall passengers. The rear AC vents also get a 12V charger and are placed in a way that the person sitting in the middle seat is not hampered by the space. The cabin has several storage spaces like bottle holder and umbrella holder in the doors, cup holders, cooled glove box and space inside the front seat armrest.



<h5>Features</h5>



The Altroz carries projector headlights at the front but misses out on the LED treatment at the front and rear profile. It also gets LED DRLs. On the inside, it gets a 7.0-inch floating touchscreen infotainment unit which gets Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. It also gets a flat-bottom steering wheel which adds to a sporty appeal, drive modes, ambient lighting, rear AC vents, push-button start, automatic headlights, rain-sensing wipers and more. 



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://www.91wheels.com/news-backend/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/Tata-Altroz-3.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-19447"/></figure>

<h5>Safety Features</h5>



Safety features on the Altroz include a global NCAP rating of 5 stars which make this hatchback the safest in its segment. Further, it gets dual-front airbags, ABS with EBD, rear parking sensors, high-speed alert system, front seat belt reminder, cornering stability control and among others. 



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://www.91wheels.com/news-backend/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/Tata-Altroz-4.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-19451"/></figure>



<h5>Engine Options </h5>



Tata borrows the 1.2L naturally aspirated petrol engine from the Tiago. This three-cylinder unit makes 84 bhp with 113 Nm of peak torque. While the petrol makes it the best in the bumper to bumper traffic, it is not the best when taken on the highways. The motor is not the best in its segment and the NVH levels are too much. 



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://www.91wheels.com/news-backend/wp-content/uploads/2020/08/Tata-Altroz-5.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-19450"/></figure>



The 1.5L turbo-diesel is straight from the Nexon but now in a detuned form. It makes 89 bhp with 200 Nm of peak torque which makes it punchier in both city traffic and on the highways. Both the engines come with a 5-speed manual gearbox and a more powerful 1.2L turbo petrol is expected by later this year. 



<h5>Prices and Competition</h5>



Tata Altroz gets a sticker price of Rs 5.43 lakh and fetches till Rs 9.48 lakh, ex-showroom, Delhi. It rivals with the likes of Maruti Baleno, Hyundai Elite i20, Honda Jazz and Toyota Glanza.

Tata Altroz First Look Review - The Real Baleno Killer?

The premium hatchback segment is a popular one and and we are going to see a lot of action in the coming few months. The segment king is still the Maruti Baleno but it was the Hyundai i20 which kickstarted the trend segment. The new Hyundai i20 is coming this festive season to take its crown back and the safest and most stylish car of the segment - Altroz is getting a new turbo engine. Let's see the upcoming premium hatchbacks which are going to be launched and what they will offer!



<h4>2020 Hyundai i20</h4>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://www.91wheels.com/news-backend/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/2020-hyundai-i20-spied-3.jpg" alt="Upcoming premium hatchbacks" class="wp-image-14864"/></figure>



Hyundai i20 needs no introduction as that was the car which kickstarted the premium hatchback segment in India. After the massive success of the current-gen i20, Hyundai is now prepping up to launch the new generation of the i20. The new i20 is said to be more agile and sensuous along with new engine options. The new-gen i20 will sport the new design language of Hyundai, carrying hunkered-down front design and quirky rear profile.

<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://www.91wheels.com/news-backend/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/2020-Hyundai-i20-India-Dimensions-Features-1.jpg" alt="Upcoming premium hatchbacks" class="wp-image-8368"/></figure>



Talking about the interiors, we will get a massive revamp in terms of both quality and looks. We expect fully digital driver's display, free-standing touchscreen with Android Auto and Apple Car Play, wireless charging, 6 airbags, bluelink, electric sunroof among other expected features. The engines on offer will be 1.2L petrol, 1.0L turbo petrol and 1.5L diesel. Hyundai will also offer automatic trims with the i20. Unofficial bookings are already open and the launch is slated for this festive season.



<h4>Honda Jazz BS6 Facelift</h4>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://www.91wheels.com/news-backend/wp-content/uploads/2020/07/2020-Honda-Jazz-BS6-2-1.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-15216"/></figure>



Honda Jazz may not be most attractive or value for money car of its segment but it is the most comfortable one. Given the Japanse reliability and brand value, the Jazz is the car which offers the most peace of mind. Honda is now coming up with a refreshed version of the Jazz with BS6 engine. We said engine this time as there will be only one engine option which is 1.2-litre i-VTEC petrol. The engine will produce identical power and come mated with a 5-speed manual and 7-step CVT.

In terms of design, the silhouette will be intact but Honda will offer all-LED headlights and taillights. Honda may also change the alloy wheel design of the Jazz but the car will remain intact fundamentally. The interiors will come with similar features like touch-enabled AC controls, Digipad with Android Auto and Apple Car Play and cruise control among other features. The pricing of the Jazz will see a decent hit thanks to the BS6 update and it will be offered in limited trims.



<h4>Tata Altroz Turbo and Automatic</h4>



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://www.91wheels.com/news-backend/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/Tata-Altroz.png" alt="" class="wp-image-8222"/></figure>



Tata Altroz turbo has to be one of the most anticipated upcoming premium hatchbacks of 2020. The turbo engine is the last thing the Altroz needs to be called as the best premium hatchback right now. The indestructible safety and astounding looks of the Altroz make it the perfect choice. As per some reports, the Altroz will get the turbo petrol this year from the Nexon.

The detuned state of the 1.2-litre turbo is expected to produce 100 PS and will be mated to a 5-speed manual. Tata is also working on an in-house dual-clutch gearbox for the Altroz which will fill the void of an automatic as well. However, unlike the turbo, we do not have any expected timeline for the dual-clutch Altroz arrival. The pricing of the Altroz will see decent hit thanks to the turbo petrol.

Upcoming Premium Hatchbacks - 2020 i20 to Altroz Turbo

Tata Altroz is the only premium hatchback which receives 5-star rating from Global NCAP. Apart from the safety, the design too is futuristic and it gets uber loads of features. Hinting on the value for money variant then the XT variant of Tata Altroz is the seal deal and now the carmaker has gone one step ahead by introducing automatic climate control in this. The same update can be seen on their website as well. 



Yes, the XT model of Tata Altroz now gets an upgrade to automatic climate control from the manual functions. This XT variant is the popular choice among buyers after the base XE rhythm package. This trim is offered in both 1.2L petrol and 1.5L petrol engine.

On the safety front, you do get features like dual airbags, headlight leveling, high-speed alert system, rear parking sensors, ABS with EBD, voice assist seat belt reminder and antiglare IRVM.

Top 5 Cheapest BS6 Cars with Cruise Control in India - Tata Altroz to Maruti Dzire!

Tata Motors launched its highly anticipated premium hatchback, <a href="https://www.91wheels.com/cars/tata/altroz">Tata Altroz</a>, in January this year. The Altroz is the company's first offering in the premium hatch segment of the country. It boasts of striking looks, feature-loaded cabin with several segment-first features, decent powertrains and attractive pricing. It was launched with an aim to set gold standard benchmarks in its category. However, it couldn't live up to everyone's expectations. That's because its petrol engine was good and not great. But, things are going to change now as Tata Motors will soon launch a new turbocharged petrol engine with the Altroz. The upcoming 2020 Tata Altroz Turbo Petrol has been recently spied on test in India which hints its imminent launch. 



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://www.91wheels.com/news-backend/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/tata-altroz-turbo-1.jpg" alt="tata altroz turbo petrol spied" class="wp-image-14144"/></figure>



Recently, a heavily camouflaged test mule of Tata Altroz was spied on test in India. The test mule was bearing TN 37 registration number plate and was spotted at Coimbatore in Tamil Nadu. If you recall, Coimbatore is the home-town of Jayem Automotives. The joint venture between Tata Motors and Jayem Automotives, collectively known as Jayem Tata Special Vehicles (JTSV) gave us the Tiago and the Tigor JTP. Not long ago, this joint venture parted their ways but it seems that Tata will continue making performance cars for the Indian car enthusiasts.

Currently, Tata Altroz gets a 1.5-litre, four-cylinder, turbocharged Revotorq diesel engine. This oil-burner churns out 90 PS of power and 200 Nm of torque. It comes mated to a 5-speed manual transmission. It also gets a 1.2-litre, naturally-aspirated, three-cylinder Revotron petrol engine. This petrol motor churns out 86 PS of power and 113 Nm of torque. This engine also comes coupled to a 5-speed manual transmission only. Tata Motors didn't offer an automatic transmission at the time of launch. Moreover, the underwhelming performance of the three-cylinder petrol engine was a blunder.

Tata will address this con of the excellent premium hatchback by launching a turbocharged petrol engine. The Altroz Turb will be powered by a 1.2-litre turbocharged petrol engine. This turbo motor is expected to churn out at least 100 PS of power and around 141 Nm of torque. Also, according to reports, the Altroz Turbo will come mated to a 5-speed manual and a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission (DCT). Tata’s new DCT gearbox will offer better fuel-efficiency and will be more refined and smooth-shifting than the existing AMT gearboxes. The company will use a Punch-sourced 7-speed DT-1 dual-clutch gearbox that has been designed especially for the compact cars (offering torque up to 200Nm). 



<div class="wp-block-image"><figure class="aligncenter size-large"><img src="https://www.91wheels.com/news-backend/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/altroz-11.jpg" alt="tata altroz interior dashboard" class="wp-image-14147"/><figcaption>Tata Altroz Interior Dashboard</figcaption></figure></div>



Aesthetically, the Altroz Turbo will be completely identical to the regular Altroz. Even features and equipment on offer will be completely similar. It will get a free-standing 7.0-inch touchscreen infotainment system with Android Auto, Apple Car Play, Navigation, voice command recognition and many more features. The Altroz is based on Tata's new ALFA architecture. It gets plenty of safety features which include ABS with EBD, dual front airbags, ISOFIX child seat mounts, rear parking sensors &amp; camera and more. Moreover, the Altroz has bagged 5-Star Safety Rating in the Global NCAP Crash Test.



The upcoming 2020 Tata Altroz Turbo Petrol model is expected to go on sale in India by the festive season of 2020. Currently, the Altroz is sold in five variants: XE, XM, XT, XZ and XZ (O) and is priced between Rs. 5.29 lakhs - Rs. 9.29 lakhs, Ex-showroom Delhi. We expect the turbo petrol model to be priced a bit premium compared to the current model. Moreover, it is offered in five different colour shades: High Street Gold, Downtown Red, Skyline Silver, Midtown Grey and Avenue White.

2020 Tata Altroz Turbo Petrol Spied on Test in India - Launch Soon?

The auto industry is one of the sectors where the COVID-19 has taken a toll and the sales of the cars have decreased. In order to push the sales, several carmakers are offering discounts and in a recent, Tata Motors is making it easier on the EMI schemes of the Altroz.



With the new monthly EMI scheme which starts at just Rs 5,555, one can buy the Tata Altroz without burning a hole in their pocket. The catch is that the EMI scheme of the referred amount will be valid for the first 6 months only. One can book the premium hatchbacks via dealerships or online. The EMI is applicable to a loan of up to Rs 5.50 lakh which will subsequently increase over a period of five years. 



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://www.91wheels.com/news-backend/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/Tata-Altroz.jpg" alt="Tata Altroz EMI " class="wp-image-12348"/></figure>



Tata Altroz is available in both petrol and diesel engines. While the 1.2-litre naturally-aspirated petrol engine may not be the fun to drive one, the turbo 1.5L oil burner surely knows how to respond. The petrol engine is sourced from Tiago and makes 84 bhp with 114 Nm of peak torque.

The 1.5L diesel mill is a de-tuned version from the Nexon and now makes 90 bhp and 200 Nm of peak torque. Transmission for both the engines sticks to a 5-speed manual gearbox. Tata is also planning on introducing a more powerful petrol motor which might be also termed as the JTP trim. 



The Altroz is a premium looking hatchback which competes with Maruti Baleno, Honda Jazz, Hyundai Elite i20 and Toyota Glanza. It is also one of the best-looking hatches from the lot! Not only the looks but Altroz is one of the safest hatchbacks which bags 5 stars Global NCAP rating. 



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://www.91wheels.com/news-backend/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/Tata-Altroz-1.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-12349"/></figure>



Feature-wise the Altroz comes with a larger 17.78 touchscreen infotainment unit with modern connectivity features like Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. It also receives cruise control, digital instrument cluster, 15L cooled glove box, projector headlights, automatic climate control and more.

The prices of the Tata Altroz starts from Rs 5.29 lakh and the top model fetches till Rs 9.34 lakh, ex-showroom, Delhi. The car is offered in several packages like Rhythm, Style and Luxe. The carmaker also gives 2 years and 75,000 kilometres as standard package. The buyers can also opt for the extended warranty packages also.

Electric Vehicles are the future and with Indian market adapting to new models, we think that it is time when carmakers introduce affordable EVs. Tata Motors introduced Nexon EV which gained quite a popularity because of the electric motor and the affordable pricing. Another EV from Tata which we will see is the Altroz which will launch in 2021.

Tata Motors showcased the Altroz EV at the 2020 Auto Expo but with the COVID-19 becoming the talk of the town, the launch is now scheduled for 2021. And in this article, we give you a total of five reasons that why we think that Altroz EV will be a game-changer for Tata Motors!



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://www.91wheels.com/news-backend/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/Tata-Altroz-EV.jpg" alt="Tata Altroz EV 2021 Images" class="wp-image-10926"/></figure>



The only hatchback to offer Petrol, Diesel and Electric With its launch, the Altroz will be the only hatchback which will come with petrol and diesel engines along with an electric battery. The former ICE units are already BS6 compliant and we can also see new a new turbo petrol engine which will be sourced from Tata Nexon. 



New design on the outside and inside Like the petrol and diesel models, the Altroz EV gets a new ice blue colour that we have seen in the Nexon EV. Also, the front and rear bumpers have been tweaked a bit and notice the blue colour finish on the beltline that runs below the windows. The cabin looks like your normal Altroz except for the blue inserts on the centre console and AC vents. You also get a rotary dial for the selection of gears rather than the typical one found in standard Altroz.

Battery Expected To Be Sourced Directly From Tata Nexon EV The electric version of Altroz uses the same Ziptron technology as found in its elder sibling, Nexon EV. This allows comprising a permanent magnet AC motor that sources the power to the front wheels via a single-speed gearbox. It is expected that the Altroz EV will use the same 30.2 kWh battery pack which gets a claimed range of 312 kilometres. It makes as much as 129 PS with a maximum torque of 245 Nm. Also, it will support fast charging which will help to juice up the battery from 0-80% in under 60 minutes with the help of a DC Charger. 



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://www.91wheels.com/news-backend/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/Tata-Altroz-EV-3.jpg" alt="Tata Altroz EV 2021 Images" class="wp-image-10930"/></figure>



No Competition from the rival brands Tata Altroz will be the only electric hatchback present in the premium hatchback segment. This will allow Tata Motors to pace up with the sale of Altroz and with the pricing playing an important role, it can also dominate the electric cars below its segment. 



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://www.91wheels.com/news-backend/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/Tata-Altroz-EV-1.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-10929"/></figure>



Pricing The price factor will play an important role in the sale of upcoming Altroz in 2021. We expect that the pricing for the same will be between Rs 10 lakh to Rs 12 lakh! The current pricing of the Tata Altroz sticks between Rs 5.29 lakh to Rs 9.35 lakh, ex-showroom, Delhi.

Five Reasons Why We Think 2021 Tata Altroz EV Is Best For Indian Roads

Now that the Hyundai has stated they will not be launching the new-gen i20 anytime soon until the festive season, we can surely say that the current-gen Elite i20 will remain in the market for quite a time. It comes with the sole 1.2L BS6 petrol engine now (Yes, the diesel is ditched). And in this article, we compare the fuel economy of BS6 Hyundai i20 vs Maruti Baleno and rivals!



Also Read: <a href="https://www.91wheels.com/news/2020-hyundai-i20-india-dimensions-features/">2020 India Bound Hyundai i20 Clear Images – Dimensions And Features</a>



With the shift in BS6, all remain intact for the i20 except for the fuel economy. It drops by 0.24 km/l from the BS4 model but nonetheless it still remains one of the better petrol engines to drive!



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://s3-ap-south-1.amazonaws.com/91w/news/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/ELITE_i20_Premium_Hatchback_gallery_5-1.jpg" alt="BS6 Hyundai Elite i20 vs Maruti Baleno Fuel Economy Image" class="wp-image-6004"/></figure>



BS6 Hyundai Elite i20 vs Maruti Baleno vs Rivals Fuel Economy Compared



<figure class="wp-block-table"><table class=""><tbody><tr><td>Model</td><td>Hyundai Elite i20</td><td>Maruti Baleno</td><td>Tata Altroz</td><td>Toyota Glanza</td></tr><tr><td>Fuel Economy (km/l)</td><td>18</td><td>21.01- MT / 23.87-DualJet MT / 19.56 - CVT</td><td>19.05</td><td>21.01 - MT / 23.87 - DualJet MT / 19.56 - CVT</td></tr><tr><td>Engine (L)</td><td>1.2</td><td>1.2</td><td>1.2</td><td>1.2</td></tr><tr><td>Gearbox</td><td>5-speed manual</td><td>5-speed manual / CVT</td><td>5-speed manual</td><td>5-speed manual / CVT</td></tr><tr><td>Power (bhp)</td><td>83</td><td>82 / 89</td><td>86 </td><td>82 / 89</td></tr><tr><td>Torque (Nm)</td><td>115 </td><td>113 / 113</td><td>113</td><td>113 / 113</td></tr></tbody></table></figure>



As you can see the above table, the BS6 Hyundai Elite i20 offers only 18 km/l from the unit and is the least fuel-efficient. The 1.2L naturally aspirated petrol makes 83 bhp with 115 Nm of peak torque. It was days before the BS6 emission norms that Hyundai dropped the 1.4L diesel with 5-speed MT and 1.4L petrol engine that hosted CVT gearbox from its line-up. 



As far as the news is concerned, the next-gen i20 will come in a new-generation avatar with all the bells and whistles. It will carry the regular BS6 1.2L naturally aspirated petrol motor and two new engines. The 1.0L turbo petrol sourced from the Hyundai Venue and 1.5L de-tuned diesel from the Creta. 



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://s3-ap-south-1.amazonaws.com/91w/news/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/Hyundai-Elite-i20.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-9359"/></figure>



Coming to the fuel efficiency charts, Maruti Baleno sticks the highest with 23.87 km/l from the 1.2L DualJet motor. And regular 1.2L engine delivers 21.01 km/l in the manual version while for the CVT it gets 19.56 km/l. Toyota Glanza which is a rebadged version of Baleno delivers the same power figures and mileage. 



Tata made its debut in the premium hatchback segment just this year and needless to say the petrol engine works well in delivering an efficient 19.05 km/l. The power comes from a 1.2-litre naturally aspirated petrol which makes 86 bhp with 113 Nm of peak torque. It only comes with a 5-speed manual gearbox. 



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://s3-ap-south-1.amazonaws.com/91w/news/wp-content/uploads/2020/05/inCollage_20200517_175059067-01.jpeg" alt="" class="wp-image-9378"/></figure>

BS6 Hyundai i20 vs Maruti Baleno vs Rivals Fuel Economy Compared

We all had only one complaint with the Altroz, Why? Why there is no turbo petrol motor? The diesel engine of the Altroz is on par and offers brilliant driveability. But our words were different for the 1.2-litre petrol which was not up to a certain standard for a car which looks so astounding. Tata Motors mentioned that they are working on a turbo petrol engine for the Altroz and also an in-house developed dual-clutch transmission. Since then, we are just waiting to drive the turbo petrol Altroz.

<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://s3-ap-south-1.amazonaws.com/91w/news/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/IMG_20191205_150901.jpg" alt="tata altroz" class="wp-image-2411"/></figure>



In recent news, sources tell that Tata Motors will start the production of the Altroz turbo petrol just after the lockdown lifts off. It means we can see the more powerful Altroz rolling to the showrooms very soon. The heart of the matter will be a detuned version of the Nexon's 1.2-litre 3-cylinder engine. Don't get upset with the 'detuned' word as it will still produce 99 Hp and 141 Nm of torque which is just 20 Hp short to the Nexon.



However, we aren't sure about the dual-clutch automatic box as Tata hasn't announced anything regarding that. The engine will be paired with a 5-speed manual gearbox and if everything goes in line as planned, we may also see a smooth in-house developed DCT plonked in the Altroz at the launch itself.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://s3-ap-south-1.amazonaws.com/91w/news/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/IMG_20191206_074028.jpg" alt="tata altroz" class="wp-image-2410"/></figure>



The Tata Altroz gets two engine option at this point of time - 1.2-litre naturally-aspirated petrol and 1.5-litre diesel. Both the engines come with 5-speed manual gearbox and auto will be launched at a later date. This very point is one of the disadvantages the Altroz carries under its belly. Most of the buyers these days, particularly in this segment, wants the benefits of a smooth and efficient automatic transmission which the Altroz lacks. The Altroz is nearly a sorted car with flamboyant looks, capable and effortless diesel engine, great build quality and value for money propositions. All it needs is a peppy petrol engine (which is on its way) and a smooth and reliable automatic transmission.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://s3-ap-south-1.amazonaws.com/91w/news/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/IMG_20191206_075341.jpg" alt="tata altroz" class="wp-image-2409"/></figure>

Tata Altroz Tubro Petrol Production to Start Post Lockdown; India Launch?

The BS6 emission norms came into force in India from April 1, 2020. And owing to this new stricter emission norms, a lot of car manufacturers have ditched diesel engines from their small cars and some have pulled the plug on it altogether. However, there are still a few carmakers who think differently and want to gratify the desire of the diesel heads. Hyundai has recently launched the Grand i10 Nios in BS6 diesel avatar and we have some more diesel players in its segment. So, in this article, we will be comparing the Specs, Mileage, and Price of BS6 Diesel Hatchbacks: Grand i10 Nios vs Figo vs Altroz vs Freestyle.

With the country moving towards cleaner BS6 emission norms, several carmakers have decided to drop the diesel engine from its portfolio.

Before we proceed, Tata Tiago was the cheapest diesel hatchbacks in India before BS6 emission norms hit. And KUV100 from Mahindra's line-up was also one of the options. However, they are both discontinued now and are offered in petrol engines only.

This 1.5-litre oil burner is a reliable unit from the Ford which is seen on Figo, Freestyle, Aspire and Ecosport. Although in terms of features, the Figo lags behind the Grand i0 Nios but for someone who is looking to drive this car then the 1.5L engine gives a punchy performance. It is only available with a 5-speed manual gearbox. The prices for the same sticks to Rs 6.86 lakh and top model fetches till Rs 7.85 lakh, ex-showroom, Delhi.

Tata Altroz is the newest in the hatchbacks and does well with its fruitful diesel engine. This engine is borrowed from the Nexon and the power delivery has been toned down to deliver good mileage. It gets a 5-speed manual gearbox as opposed to a 6-speed found in Nexon. This car rivals with the likes of Maruti Baleno, Hyundai Elite i20, Honda Jazz, Volkswagen Polo and Toyota Glanza. It is priced at Rs 6.99 lakh and goes up to Rs 9.34 lakh, ex-showroom, Delhi. 



Ford Freestyle Engine - 1.5L TDCI Power - 99 bhp and 215 Nm

Recently we broke the news that Honda is working on the Jazz facelift. The facelift will come up upgraded BS6 engines and minor tweaks to the profile of the hatchback. It will get tweaked exterior and interior design and some added features like LED headlights, new infotainment system and minor update to the upholstery design. We expect the new model will be launched right after the lockdown and the prices will see a significant amount of hike. 



Honda WR-V Engine - 1.5-litre, i-DTEC Diesel Power - 99 bhp and 200 Nm



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://s3-ap-south-1.amazonaws.com/91w/news/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/Honda-WR_V_.jpg" alt="Cheapest BS6 Diesel Hatchbacks India Image" class="wp-image-4809"/></figure>



The second unit from the Honda line-up is the facelifted WR-V. We know it's a crossover but people confuse it with the hatchback sometimes. It is mostly known for its quirky design and abundance features. This is another choice if you were to buy an affordable hatchback with a diesel engine. It powers the same unit as seen on the Amaze, Jazz and upcoming City. 



Hyundai Elite i20 Engine - 1.5-litre CRDi Power - 99 bhp and 240 Nm (expected)

 Well, we are talking about the next-gen i20 which is yet to come to our shores. Packed by a 1.5L unit which is also seen n Creta, this will be rather a de-tuned version. It is seen on the Venue too. The new i20 will pack in new features and comes with the latest bit of features and technology. It will rival with Tata Altroz, Maruti Baleno, Honda Jazz and Toyota Glanza.

Cheapest BS6 Diesel Hatchbacks In India - Altroz To i10 NIOS

Automatic cars are gaining more traction in the Indian car market every passing month. Due to the increasing traffic and lowering average speeds on roads, automatic cars make perfect sense for crowded cities. They used to cost a lot some years rewind. But now, we can have an automatic car for less than Rs 5 lakhs too. They don't cost a bomb, are really accessible, reliable, affordable and the option list will grow in the coming few months. We tell you about six upcoming automatic cars under Rs 10 Lakhs which you should wait for!

Renault Triber AMT



Renault Triber was initially launched with a 5-speed manual transmission only. The AMT version was showcased later at the Expo along with a new colour option and a body kit. It was supposed to get launched sometime this month but due to the outbreak of Coronavirus, Renault is taking some time to launch the Triber AMT. 



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large is-resized"><img src="https://s3-ap-south-1.amazonaws.com/91w/news/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/Triber_1.jpg" alt="renault triber bs6 amt" class="wp-image-745" height="480"/></figure>



Renault Triber is powered by a 1.0-litre 3 cylinder petrol engine which churns out 72 Ps and 96 Nm of torque. It will get the same AMT unit we see in Kwid but it will also get manual mode, unlike the Kwid. The AMT variants will cost around Rs 60,000 more than the manual variants. Rest of the mechanicals will remain the same and we might also get to see the AMT with new 1.0-litre turbo engine in the Triber.



Mahindra eKUV100



We know that Mahindra eKUV100 is electric and it is only for commercial buyers only. But electric cars are also considered as automatic cars and eKUV100 will also be launched for private buyers too. Mahindra launched the eKUV100 at the 2020 Auto Expo and it was priced at Rs 8.25 lakhs but it was only available for commercial buyers. Mahindra will soon launch it for private buyers too at a similar price. Mahindra eKUV100 gets a 15.9 kWh battery with fast charging support, it can be charged to 80% in just one hour via a fast charger and once juiced up, it can deliver a range of 147 km on a single charge.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://s3-ap-south-1.amazonaws.com/91w/news/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/Dc6p5WbUwAAVvMo.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-4995"/></figure>



Renault Kigar and Nissan Magnite



Renault and Nissan, both are working on a subcompact SUV based on the CMF-A+ platform which also underpins the Triber. Kigar has been codenamed HBC and has been spied multiple times while on the test. Both the cars will be powered by a 1.0-litre turbo petrol engine which is expected to produce close to 100 Hp. The engine will be paired with a 5-speed manual and 5-speed AMT will also be launched.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large is-resized"><img src="https://s3-ap-south-1.amazonaws.com/91w/news/wp-content/uploads/2020/03/Nissan_1.jpg" alt="Upcoming Automatic Cars Under 10 Lakhs" class="wp-image-4273" height="480"/></figure>



Renault Kigar will get split headlamps, 16-inch alloy wheels, LED taillights, 8-inch touchscreen infotainment screen, electric sunroof among many other features. Nissan has teased the Magnite with some images and it will offer striking looks. Renault Kigar and Nissan Magnate will lock horns with cars like Tata Nexon, Hyundai Venue and Maruti Vitara Brezza. We expect the prices of both cars to start from about Rs 7 lakhs. 



Tata Altroz DCT



Tata Motors launched the Altroz last year and it impressed all of us with its sharp creases and striking design elements. The only problem which everyone agreed with was the lack of automatic transmission options. A big stake of the audience of premium hatchbacks wants the convenience of automatic transmission. Fret not! Sources tell that Tata Motors is developing a DCT unit for the Altroz in house and it will be launched in the market soon. To cope up with a fast-shifting DCT, Tata will launch the 1.2-litre turbo petrol engine which we get in the Nexon, but with a lower state of tune. The prices will be around 1 lakh more than the manual variants.



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large is-resized"><img src="https://s3-ap-south-1.amazonaws.com/91w/news/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/IMG_20191205_150901.jpg" alt="tata altroz" class="wp-image-2411" height="480"/></figure>



2020 Hyundai i20



Hyundai is playing big by updating its trump cars in India. After the new Creta and Verna, it is time for the i20. It was unveiled at the Geneva Motorshow. It is all-new from the ground to the top and sports a very striking design. Hyundai i20 will get a 1.0-litre turbo petrol engine from the Venue and it will be paired to a 7-speed DCT. Other engines on offer include 1.2-litre petrol engine and 1.5-diesel from the Venue too. It will be priced under Rs 10 lakhs whereas the base variants are expected to kick start from Rs 6 lakhs ex-showroom.

BS6 Honda Jazz CVT



Honda Jazz is a premium hatchback offering from the Japanese carmaker but it has never done well when compared to its chief rivals like i20 and Baleno. Honda Jazz has been taken down from the website at this point of time as new BS6 Honda Jazz is on its way. Honda Jazz, in its BS6 iteration, is expected to get CVT transmissions with both petrol and diesel engine options. 1.2-litre petrol and 1.5-litre diesel engines will be offered in the new Jazz. However, we don't expect much changes from this updated model. Prices might see a small bump due to BS6 compliant engines. Current-gen Jazz which is now discontinued was priced from Rs 7.45 lakhs to 9.45 lakhs.

Upcoming Automatic Cars Under Rs 10 Lakhs

EVs are the future and affordable electric cars in particular. In India, Hybrid cars haven't marked flags of success as the manufacturer didn't show their full potential and the customers never really demanded them in the first place. The results were Smart-hybrids or micro-hybrids but the real alternate that most of us are looking forward to are pure electric cars. Here we tell you upcoming affordable electric cars which will get launched before the end of the year 2021. You should mark all of these in your wishlist if you are looking for affordable EVs.

Mahindra eKUV100 Electric



Mahindra showcased dozen-odd cars at the 2020 Auto Expo and unexpectedly, launched the eKUV100 which is India's first all-electric Micro SUV. Although the pricing which Mahindra announced was for commercial buyers only and it might also be available for personal buyers in future. Mahindra eKUV100 gets a 15.9 kWh battery with fast charging support, it can be charged to 80% in just one hour via a fast charger and once juiced up, it can deliver a range of 147 km on a single charge. eKUV100 also comes with connected car features like cabin pre-cooling, location tracking, driving diagnosis, among other features. It was launched at Rs 8.25 lakhs (ex-showroom, Delhi), making it one of the most affordable electric cars in the country.

Maruti Suzuki Wagon-R Electric



Maruti Suzuki has been working on an electric incarnation of the WagonR hatchback for quite a lot of time now. Some months back, we shared with you the exclusive images of the Wagon-R EV which proved some features of the Wagon-R EV. It will get split headlamps, similar dashboard from Wagon-R featuring a touchscreen and we expect it to get connected car features as well; Manual brake regulation which can be activated by the gear (sort of) lever. Expect it to be priced under 10 lakhs and it will deliver a range of near 180 km with fast charging support as well. When launched, it will be the most affordable electric car in India.

Renault Kwid KZE



Renault India showcased two electric cars at the 2020 Auto. While the Zoe EV will take some time to hit the roads, we expect Kwid KZE to get launched first. The silhouette will remain more or less the same as the Kwid' but an electric motor will take place of the engine. Kwid KZE will get a 26.8 kWh battery pack mated to an electric motor which will churn out 44 Ps and 125 Nm of peak torque at zero rpm. The range is rated at 270 km by NEDC and it can be charged from 0-80% in just 30 minutes with the help of the fast charger. It will be priced under 10 lakhs when it gets launched sometime in next year and will lock horns with the Wagon R EV.

Tata Altroz EV



Tata Motors showcased the Altroz EV at the 2020 Auto Expo and it gathered many eyeballs there. It will utilize Tata's new Ziptron technology which made its debut in the Nexon EV. The motor will be water and dust resistant and will offer a range of 300 km. Tata Motors will launch the Altroz EV early next year and we expect it to be priced at around 12-13 lakhs. It will get similar features we get in the regular Altroz. This will be the most affordable electric car in the premium hatchback domain. 



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://s3-ap-south-1.amazonaws.com/91w/news/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/Tata-Altroz-EV-fascia-1200x795-1-1024x678-1.jpg" alt="Affordable Electric cars" class="wp-image-4994"/></figure>

Great Wall Motors which made their debut at the 2020 Auto Expo showcased R1 which is a small 4-door electric vehicle. It comes under the ORA brand but in India, it will be sold under the 'GWM' brand. GWM R1 gets a 33 kWh battery pack which gives a range of 300 km through a 33 kW electric motor. It features 8.0-inch touchscreen, manual AC, power windows at the front, electric parking brake etc. GWM will launch the R1 in 2021.

These are all the Upcoming Affordable Electric cars you will see on the roads in a couple of years. You can tell us which one is your favourite and which one will be your next buy. 



Mahindra Atom 



While this is mainly for commercial use and was showcased at the Auto Expo, we strongly feel Mahindra should allow private buyers to pick this up as well. This little 3 seater (yes!) could be perfect for those who need a small car for urban use, running errands or even for self-employed businessmen who need to commute through congested markets or narrow lanes. 



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://s3-ap-south-1.amazonaws.com/91w/news/wp-content/uploads/2020/04/auto-expo-2020-mahindra-atom_1581329682.jpeg" alt="Mahindra atom " class="wp-image-5000"/></figure>



The Mahindra Atom's battery / electric set-up isn't confirmed yet but it will offer a range of 90km, top speed of 50km and can be juiced up in four hours. There is an optional a/c too and pricing will be under Rs 3 lakh. Brilliant!

Upcoming Affordable Electric Cars You should Wait For!

Tata Motors recently launched the Altroz, India's safest premium hatchback. As compared to rivals, the car is easier to own too as it is the most affordable of the lot starting at a price of Rs 5.29 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi). In this article, we compare the fuel economy of Tata Altroz with its rivals. 



Tata Altroz competes with the likes of Maruti Suzuki Baleno, Hyundai Elite i20, Toyota Glanza and Honda Jazz. While the petrol engine of the Altroz does not feel punchy enough and lacks a little bit of grunt, it is the diesel engine that picked our eye the most. And so does its fuel efficiency. The petrol model of Altroz returns 19.05 km/l and diesel returns 25.11 km/l. All figures stick with ARAI. Do note that the Altroz is not offered with an optional automatic as of now. 



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://s3-ap-south-1.amazonaws.com/91w/news/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/Tata-Altroz-Fuel-Economy-Comparison.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-2703"/></figure>



Tata Altroz Petrol Fuel Economy model with competitors 



<figure class="wp-block-table"><table class=""><tbody><tr><td>Model</td><td>Tata Altroz</td><td>Maruti Suzuki Baleno</td><td>Hyundai Elite i20</td><td>Honda Jazz </td><td>Toyota Glanza</td></tr><tr><td>Displacement</td><td>1.2L</td><td>1.2L/1.2L SHVS</td><td>1.2L</td><td>1.2L</td><td>1.2L/1.2L SHVS</td></tr><tr><td>Power</td><td>86 bhp</td><td>82 bhp/ 89 bhp</td><td>83 bhp</td><td>90 bhp</td><td>82 bhp/ 89 bhp</td></tr><tr><td>Torque</td><td>113 Nm</td><td>115 Nm/ 113 Nm</td><td>115 Nm</td><td>110 Nm</td><td>115 Nm/ 113 Nm </td></tr><tr><td>Fuel Economy</td><td>19.05 km/l</td><td>21.01 km/l / 23.87 km/l</td><td>18.24 km/l</td><td>18.2 km/l</td><td>21.01 km/l / 23.87 km/l</td></tr><tr><td>Transmission</td><td>5-speed</td><td>5-speed</td><td>5-speed</td><td>5-speed</td><td>5-speed</td></tr><tr><td>Emission Norms</td><td>BS6</td><td>BS6</td><td>BS4</td><td>BS4</td><td>BS6</td></tr></tbody></table></figure>



The Baleno and the Glanza (re-badged Baleno) both hatchbacks sit at the top in terms of fuel economy. And this can be said because of the lightweight and the availability of SHVS mild hybrid system which further enhances the fuel economy.

Tata Altroz secures the third position at 19.05 km/l, leaving Hyundai Elite i20 at 18.24 km/l and Honda Jazz at 18.2 km/l behind. Please note, these figures are ARAI certified.

Toyota Glanza has been ruled out from this competition due to the unavailability of an oil burner. Maruti Suzuki continues to top the chart with delivering 27.39 km/l with the 1.3L DDiS diesel engine. It must be noted that Maruti will discontinue the oil burner from its line-up post-April 2020.

Tata Altroz Fuel Economy Comparison With Its Rivals

Tata Altroz, the much-awaited premium hatchback is launched at a price of Rs 5.29 lakh. The car gives its competition a check in terms of features, pricing and what we know so far is a strong bodyshell and its the only car in its segment which scored 5-star rating at the Global NCAP. And in this article, we will be comparing the Tata Altroz vs Maruti Baleno and Hyundai Elite i20. 



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><a href="https://s3-ap-south-1.amazonaws.com/91w/news/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/Tata-Altroz-vs-Maruti-Baleno-1.jpg"><img src="https://s3-ap-south-1.amazonaws.com/91w/news/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/Tata-Altroz-vs-Maruti-Baleno-1.jpg" alt="Tata Altroz vs Maruti Baleno vs Hyundai Elite i20 Image " class="wp-image-2546"/></a></figure>

Comparing the length of all these hatchbacks then Maruti Suzuki Baleno wins the competition. Altroz sets its length at 3,990 mm, just 5 mm short from Baleno.

Tata Altroz Accessories: Prices And Features Explained

Tata Motors upcoming premium hatchback, Altroz secured a five-star rating at the Global NCAP results. The car is scheduled to launch on 22nd January and competes with the likes of Maruti Suzuki Baleno, Hyundai Elite i20, Honda Jazz and Toyota Glanza. This latest update makes it the safest hatchback in India. Do note, its elder sibling, the Nexon is the safest compact SUV with a similar crash test rating. 



What's interesting is that the Global NCAP results came out before its official launch and the results can work out in favour of Tata Altroz. It is safer than the hot-selling Maruti Baleno. The premium hatchback will come in BS6 petrol and diesel engine which is again the first in the segment. 



<figure class="wp-block-embed-youtube wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio"><div class="wp-block-embed__wrapper">
https://youtu.be/yL1JgzfBvWk
</div></figure>



David Ward, CEO and President of Global NCAP said, “The latest result in our #SaferCarsforIndia crash tests shows a strong signal that TATA is moving its fleet to 5-star levels of safety performance. We would like to encourage all other car manufacturers in India to follow TATA’s example and bring affordable 5-star cars to Indian consumers.”

He also added, “The Indian government’s minimum crash test standards are clearly helping to eliminate any new zero star cars from the market, and we will continue to work with them to ensure the push of regulatory requirements is complemented by the pull of consumer awareness, encouraging the demand for ever-higher levels of safety.”



After the Nexon, Altroz is the second car from the Indian carmaker to get a 5-star rating. The car scored a total of 16.13 points out of 17 in adult occupancy protection. And it secured three stars for the child occupancy. A total of 29 points were achieved out of 49. 



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><a href="https://s3-ap-south-1.amazonaws.com/91w/news/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/Tata-Altroz-NCAP-1.jpg"><img src="https://s3-ap-south-1.amazonaws.com/91w/news/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/Tata-Altroz-NCAP-1.jpg" alt="Tata Altroz Global NCAP Image " class="wp-image-1812"/></a></figure>



It should be noted that the Tata Altroz offers safety features like Antilock Braking System with Electronic Brakeforce Distribution, Dual Airbags, ISOFIX mount child seats, High-speed alert system, Seatbelt reminder and Corner Stability.

The robust structure and footwell area came out to be the strongest in the results. Tata Altroz uses ALFA architecture. A front offset crash and a side-impact crash were carried out which proved that the premium hatchback is safe for the driver's and front passenger head, neck and knees. A sufficient part of the chest area was also considered safe. 



As said above, the safety of the child occupant turned out to be three-stars. With a 1.5-year-old and 3-year-old dummies, the former's protection was good while the backrest of the latter unlatched and its head was stuck with the interiors.

Tata Altroz Bags Five-Star Ratings At The Global NCAP

Tata Motors will launch the Altroz later this month on the 22nd and their first premium hatchback will lock horns with other cars like the Hyundai i20, Toyota Glanza and the current segment leader, the Maruti Baleno. While we have all seen Tata'a latest in pictures and videos, its the first time that both the Tata Altroz and Maruti Baleno have been spotted together. 



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://s3-ap-south-1.amazonaws.com/91w/news/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/82222345_2627336630713236_877756762566950912_o.jpg" alt="tata altroz and Maruti baleno" class="wp-image-1548"/></figure>



The picture was shared on a <a rel="noreferrer noopener" aria-label="Facebook Group (opens in a new tab)" href="https://www.facebook.com/groups/2153822198261302/?tn-str=%2AF" target="_blank">Facebook Group</a> recently and shows both the rivals parked together. This also gives us the first proper prospective of which car looks better in the company of the other. While the Baleno is in its marketing shade of blue, the Altroz is finished in red. This shade does suit this car a lot but Tata has picked gold as the marketing shade. Back to the Tata Altroz and the Maruti Baleno, while the former clearly looks modern and aggressive upfront, the Baleno manages to hold its own, mainly due to its low slung design and the smiling front. Do note, the Altroz is the wider of the two and gets enough black elements all around. 



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://s3-ap-south-1.amazonaws.com/91w/news/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/mcms.php_.jpeg" alt="" class="wp-image-1547"/></figure>



The Altroz will be offered with a choice of two engine options, a 1.2 petrol and a 1.5 diesel. While the petrol unit is good for 86 bhp and 113 Nm, the diesel one makes 90 bhp and 200 Nm. Worthy of a mention is the fact that the torque in both fuel types comes in earlier than the rivals. The Baleno is offered with two petrol and one diesel engine options. Further, it offers the convenience of an automatic, something the Altroz will not offer at launch. 



<figure class="wp-block-image size-large"><img src="https://s3-ap-south-1.amazonaws.com/91w/news/wp-content/uploads/2020/01/20190128120339_2019-Maruti-Baleno-facelift.jpg" alt="" class="wp-image-1546"/></figure>



The Maruti Baleno is sold via Nexa outlets and has a starting price of Rs 5.58 lakh, ex-showroom Delhi. We are sure Tata will undercut this figure and the Altroz will offer excellent value for money. Which of the two cars will you put your money on and why - let us know in the comment section below.

Tata Altroz and Maruti Baleno Spotted Together For The First Time

Tata will launch the all-new Altroz in the Indian market on 22nd January. The first-ever premium hatchback from the manufacturer will have a competitive price and may get the most affordable price tag in the segment. Tata will currently offer two engine options with the Altroz, but there are plans to launch a more powerful version of the car.

Tata will initially power the Altroz with two engine options. There will be a 1.2-litre naturally aspirated petrol engine that generates a maximum power of 85 PS at 6,000 rpm and 113 Nm of peak torque at 3,300 rpm.

Both the engine get the 5-speed manual transmission, and there will be no automatic transmission at the time of the launch.



As per <a href="https://www.team-bhp.com/news/altroz-110ps-diesel-being-planned" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" aria-label="Team-BHP (opens in a new tab)">Team-BHP</a>, Tata Motors is now planning to launch the 110 Bhp version of the Altroz in the Indian market in the coming time. Depending on the response received by the Altroz, Tata is expected to launch the more powerful version of the Altroz, that will get powered by the same 1.5-litre diesel engine, but it will produce more power. Tata offers the same 1.5-litre diesel engine with the Nexon too.



Tata may launch the JTP version of the Altroz in the coming times. The exact features and power figures of the Altroz JTP will surface later this year. However, just like the Tata Tiago JTP and the Tata Tigor JTP, the Altroz is expected to get new sporty features. The Altroz JTP will get new bumpers, new alloy wheels and a few changes to the cabin.



The Altroz will take on the likes of Hyundai Elite i20 and the Maruti Suzuki Baleno in the Indian market. However, Altroz offers a lot of features that are first-in-segment. The Altroz will also get launched in the EV avatar next year.



Later this year, Tata will launch the all-new Nexon EV, Tata Gravitas and may showcase upcoming products like the Hornbill.

The Altroz will become the first car from the manufacturer in the premium hatchback segment. The all-new vehicle will be the first vehicle based on Tata's ALFA platform.

The Altroz is expected to become the most affordable vehicle in the segment.

Car and SUV launches on January 2020 [under 25 lakh]

The bookings for the Tata Altroz have already begun at a price of Rs 21,000. As of now, there is not even a hint of the prices but we expect it to be between Rs 5 lakh to Rs 8 lakh so it keeps up with the competition.
