Tata Motors is planning to launch several new cars in 2022 and the Altroz automatic is one of them. The brand has confirmed this and the automatic transmission variant for the Altroz is expected to be introduced sometime in 2022.
Presently, the Altroz is available in a choice of three powertrains: a 1.2-litre, three-cylinder, naturally aspirated petrol engine; 1.2-litre three-cylinder, turbocharged petrol; and a 1.5-litre, four-cylinder, turbocharged diesel motor. All three engines are coupled with only a manual gearbox.
That said, the turbo petrol variant is likely to be exclusively offered with an automatic transmission. This 1.2-litre, turbo, petrol engine mated to a manual gearbox produces 108bhp and 140Nm of torque.
Meanwhile, Tata Motors became the second-largest carmaker in the country in December 2021 as it witnessed skyrocketed demand for its passenger vehicles, including electric cars. It aims to launch CNG variants of the Tiago, Tigor and the Punch this year.
