With stricter RDE regulations on its way, we are already seeing a number of segments shifting to petrol-only. Most of the lower-end segment, including the compact sedan class, now offers only petrol models as diesel demand dwindles. And now, if you’re considering picking up a diesel-powered premium hatchback, you have no other choice but the Tata Altroz as it remains the only one in its segment to offer a diesel option.
This news comes after the recent discontinuation of the i20’s diesel variants, which packed a 100PS 1.5-litre oil burner, paired with a six-speed manual. The reason for its discontinuation could probably be the fact that the diesel engine has a lesser number of takers compared to its petrol sibling. The segment has also seen a shift, with most of the models boasting naturally aspirated petrol, turbo-petrol and CNG options now.
This, though, gives the Altroz a big fat advantage, as buyers looking for a diesel-powered premium hatchback have no other choice but to consider the Tata. It also has enough poke, thanks to the 90PS 1.5-litre diesel engine that comes paired with a five-speed manual. Also, the hatchback is offered with 1.2-litre naturally aspirated and turbo-petrol engines as well.
