Tata Altroz And Punch CNG Break Cover At Auto Expo 2023

These CNG cars get two CNG cylinders, positioned in a way to minimise the loss of boot space 

While Tata has showcased a range of EVs this Auto Expo, it has also introduced new variants of its existing lineup. The carmaker has unveilved the CNG variants of the Punch and Altroz, which makes four Tata models to get the cleaner fuel alternative. 

Tata offers the Punch and Altroz CNG with its new dual cylinder setup, splitting the otherwise big 60-litre tank. This will help in leaving more boot space than other CNG cars of similar proportions. Where CNG cars compromise on the boot, this change is a unique and welcome highlight. 

The Punch and Altroz share their 86PS 1.2-litre petrol engine, which has been equipped with CNG. The engine produces 77PS and 97Nm while running on CNG and comes paired with a five-speed manual transmission as standard. 

The CNG variants feature a 7-inch touchscreen system, push-button start-stop, cruise control,  up to six airbags, and a rear parking camera. The Altroz CNG additionally offers an electric sunroof, automatic projector headlamps, mood lighting, and rain-sensing wipers. 

The Punch CNG doesn’t have any direct competition. In the case of the Tata Altroz, its rivals like the Maruti Baleno and Toyota Glanza do offer the option of CNG.
