Tata Motors kicking things off in the new calendar year with the debut of the turbocharged petrol engine in the Altroz’s lineup. The premium hatchback competing against Maruti Suzuki Baleno, Hyundai i20, Honda Jazz and Volkswagen Polo was launched early last year and it has been well received among customers. The new turbo engine will help in expanding the range and more crucially rival Hyundai i20 1.0L turbo and VW Polo 1.0L TSI.

In comparison to the regular naturally-aspirated petrol which develops 86 PS and 113 Nm, the turbo PETROL churns out 28 per cent more power and 24 per cent more torque.

The new turbo powertrain is connected to a five-speed manual transmission and a dual clutch automatic is expected to join the fray later. The Altroz iTubro is claimed to accelerate from zero to 100 kmph in under 12 seconds. Currently, the Altroz is priced from Rs. 5.44 lakh and it goes up to Rs. 9.09 lakh (ex-showroom) across XE, XM, XT and XZ variants and the turbo petrol equipped variants will ask for a higher premium. Its official prices will be announced on January 22 and bookings commencing tomorrow.
