Tata Altroz Racer: Engine Specifications
The biggest update on the Tata Altroz Racer is its new 1.2-litre turbo petrol engine borrowed from the Tata Nexon. The motor belts out 118 bhp and 170 Nm of peak torque, paired with only the 6-speed manual transmission. There is no automatic gearbox option available. Tata also says the model packs a sporty exhaust note over the standard variants.
Aesthetic upgrades on the Tata Altroz Racer include the blacked-out bonnet and roof for a dual-tone paint scheme. The car gets twin white stripes running across the bonnet, roof and boot on the car. The new version will also get a ‘Racer’ badge on the fender, along with new alloy wheels for a sporty treatment. The Altroz Racer is available in three dual-tone colours – Atomic Orange, Avenue White, and Pure Grey.
The cabin gets a blacked-out appearance with orange highlights, black leatherette upholstery with contrast stitching and twin stripes. The dashboard remains the same but the model packs a host of features including an electric sunroof, a digital instrument console, ventilated front seats, cruise control, a 360-degree camera, and more.
