In India, one of the top automakers is Tata Motors. They are developing new products to add to their portfolio in addition to the wide range of products they now offer. Another well-known brand in EVs is Tata.
Tata Nexon iCNG
Right now, one of the most well-liked small SUVs offered in India is the Nexon. With their twin-cylinder technology, which provides the comfort of CNG without sacrificing trunk room, Tata completely changed the CNG market. Tata debuted the Tigor iCNG AMT and Tiago AMT iCNG in a similar manner.
Tata debuted the Nexon SUV using compressed natural gas (CNG) at this year’s Bharat Mobility Expo. It is anticipated that the launch will take place later this year. The Nexon will be the first turbocharged car with a factory-installed CNG kit when it is released. A 1.2-liter, 3-cylinder turbocharged petrol engine will power the SUV; this engine will provide less power and torque than the standard petrol variant. Additionally, it is anticipated that the CNG variant will cost at least 1 lakh more than the comparable petrol version.
Tata Altroz Racer
They originally came upon this idea at the Auto Expo the previous year. What the Hyundai i20 N Line is to Tata, the Altroz Racer is to Hyundai. It is a more aggressively styled variant of the standard luxury hatchback. A few times, the Altroz Racer has been seen testing, and pictures of the vehicle are also accessible on the internet.
The 1.2-liter turbocharged petrol engine powering the premium hatchback will remain the same, but it will produce more power than before. The Altroz Racer is anticipated to produce 120 PS when mated to a 6-speed manual gearbox. The standard iTurbo variant has five gears and produces 10 PS less.
The roof, tailboard and bonnet of the Altroz Racer are all blacked out. A tint of red or orange is used to complete the remainder of the body. To give it a sporty appearance, the bonnet has white racing stripes. All of the standard Altroz’s features are anticipated to be available in the automobile. Additionally, it will have front ventilated seats, a first for the sector. Along with many other features, it will have a HUD, six airbags, and a 360-degree camera.
Tata Curvv
Tata has been hinting at this brand-new product for a while now. The Tata Curvv mid-size SUV concept and near-production model were viewed by them at the Auto Expo the previous year. The SUV is anticipated to go into production and be released in the next months. It has been observed undergoing testing on local roads multiple times. It is anticipated that the SUV would arrive during the holiday season.
Tata is anticipated to release the Curvv’s electric variant first. As a result, Tata will outperform competitors like the Maruti eVX and Creta EV. The future Tata Curvv’s technical characteristics are yet unknown.
Additionally, Tata plans to introduce an ICE Curvv with a choice of petrol or diesel engines. The SUV will be powered by a brand-new 1.2-liter turbocharged gasoline engine with 125 PS and a choice of manual or automatic transmissions. The 1.5-liter turbocharged engine in the diesel variant will be available with both a manual and an automatic gearbox. To compete, Tata Curvv will be equipped with a number of high-end features. It is anticipated that Curvv’s ICE version will be released by early 2025 or by the end of 2024.
