Thanks to BHPian RavenAvi for sharing this information with other enthusiasts!

Rumours suggest that Tata Motors is planning to introduce a 110 BHP diesel engine in the Altroz. Depending on the sales volumes of the Altroz, the carmaker might consider the high performance diesel. It could be launched by the end of 2021 as a JTP variant.

At present, we know that the Altroz will be offered with BS6 compliant petrol and diesel engines. The 1.2-litre, 3-cylinder, naturally aspirated petrol engine produces 85 BHP @ 6,000 rpm and 113 Nm @ 3,300 rpm. The 1.5-litre, 4-cylinder turbocharged diesel unit puts out 89 BHP @ 4,000 rpm and 200 Nm @ 1,250-3,000 rpm. Both engines will be offered with a 5-speed manual transmission.
