This motor will be mated to a six-speed manual gearbox.
The on-sale Altroz comes with a 1.2-litre turbo-petrol engine with 110PS/140Nm, a 1.2-litre naturally aspirated petrol engine with 88PS/115Nm, a 1.2-litre naturally aspirated petrol with iCNG with 73.5PS/103Nm, and a 1.5-litre four-cylinder turbocharged diesel motor with 90PS/200Nm.
