Tata Motors will reveal prices for the new Altroz Racer in India tomorrow. The upcoming hatchback is a sportier version of the standard Altroz, featuring various cosmetic modifications such as dual-tone bodywork with racing stripes and 'Racer' badges, a voice-activated sunroof, and 16-inch alloy wheels. It will be offered in three versions (R1, R2, and R3) and exterior colour schemes (Atomic Orange, Avenue White, and Pure Grey). The new edition is expected to be more expensive than the Tata Altroz XZ iTurbo, which costs between Rs 9.20 lakh and Rs 10.10 lakh in India (both, ex-showroom). It will directly answer the likes of the sportier Hyundai i20 N Line in the market. Read on to learn more about the new Altroz Racer in depth.

Tata Altroz Racer: Powertrain
The Tata Altroz Racer will get the Nexon's 1.2-litre, three-cylinder, turbo-petrol engine, which produces 120bhp and 170Nm. While the latter has four gearbox options, the former will only come with a 6-speed manual transmission. The new hatch is anticipated to come with a DCT gearbox, as Tata Motors already provides one in the Altroz's range.
