The performance-oriented Tata Altroz will deliver power around 102PS with 140Nm of torque. It can be had either with a 5-speed manual gearbox or a 7-speed DCT (dual-clutch transmission).

That said, the Altroz will be the brand’s first car to feature the DCT automatic gearbox. It will be a wet-clutch automatic unit sourced from Punch Powertrain.
