Just five months after introducing the Altroz Racer, Tata is now offering benefits to make it more attractive. All three variants get discounts of up to Rs 65,000, which includes a direct cash discount and an exchange or scrappage bonus.
Launched on June 7, the Tata Altroz Racer is available in R1, R2 and R3 variants, with the top-spec model getting features like segment-first ventilated front seats, a 360-degree camera and blind spot monitoring. Other features on offer on the top-spec variant include a new 7.0-inch digital instrument cluster, a 10.25-inch infotainment touchscreen and a powered sunroof.
All three trims are powered by a 120hp, 1.2-litre three-cylinder turbo-petrol engine that comes with a 6-speed manual gearbox as standard. Depending on demand, Tata Motors is mulling an automatic version that would get the Nexon’s 7-speed dual-clutch unit. The company is also considering expanding the Racer brand, which could include the upcoming Altroz EV. The Racer performance sub-brand would be to Tata Motors what the N Line is to Hyundai.
Speaking of Hyundai, the Altroz Racer’s direct rival is the i20 N Line, which is powered by a 120hp, 1.0-litre turbo-petrol engine that comes with manual and dual-clutch auto gearbox options. Prices for the manual range between Rs 10.00 lakh and Rs 11.42 lakh, while the automatic variants cost Rs 11.15 lakh-12.52 lakh. Interestingly, select Hyundai dealerships are offering discounts and benefits of up to Rs 40,000 during this month.
