The Tata Altroz Racer and Hyundai i20 N Line produce near identical power and torque outputs. Our source told us Tata will only offer the Altroz Racer with a 6-speed manual gearbox at launch. It remains to be seen if Tata offer the Altroz Racer with a dual-clutch automatic transmission (DCT) at a later stage.
Based on the teasers released by Tata recently, we can confirm the Altroz Racer will retain the dual-tone exterior body colour. But the base colour options are limited to 3 — grey, white and orange.
