Tata Motors has launched the Altroz iCNG at ₹7.55 lakh (ex-showroom, India). The Altroz is the first CNG-powered hatchback to offer a sunroof, and it also debuts Tata’s new dual-cylinder set-up for CNG tanks.
Visually, there is barely any difference between the petrol-powered version and the Altroz CNG, barring the addition of the ‘iCNG’ badge on the tailgate of the latter. Tata has placed the two 30-litre CNG tanks under the boot floor for more space. Earlier, CNG tanks took up almost all of the available boot area. The Altroz CNG has a 210-litre boot, which is 135 litres less than the standard Altroz’s 345-litre boot.
Inside, too, not much has changed compared to the petrol Altroz. It gets the same 7.0-inch touchscreen with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay connectivity, an air purifier, a wireless charger, automatic headlamps and more. However, the biggest difference is the addition of the voice-activated, single-pane sunroof on the XM+ (S), XZ+ (S) and XZ+ O (S) trims.
