However, we don't see any mention of an automatic unit, which would indicate that the car will come with the existing 5-speed manual transmission as standard, at least, at the time of its launch. However, the Tata Altroz Turbo is expected to get the automatic dual-clutch transmission (DCT) which the carmaker has been working on, but it's too soon to confirm that. Right now, the Tata Altroz comes with a 1.2-litre naturally aspirated motor that produces 85 bhp and 113 Nm of peak torque, along with a 1.5-litre diesel engine that makes 89 bhp and 200 Nm of peak torque. Both mated to a 5-speed manual gearbox as standard.
