The low end of this 1199cc engine is actually better than that 999cc of i20, that's what i have observed too while test driving, because of the longer stroke as it's a bigger engine than of smaller i20 engine and it doesn't suffer that torque loss of i20 in hillies. This is the only channel that is giving a genuine review unlike the ones of so called 'fasbeam' hyundai fanboism channel which will not say this and misleading people to not buy tata.
Hyundai offers a TGDI motor buddy which is completely worth buying over this but altroz is targeted for value for money youngsters
@@samonkar5693 tgdi engines are sensitive to water contamination in fuel, i have seen one venue which has injection problems because of a drop or two water contamination during rainy season. MPFI are more reliable when it comes to long term usage.
Dual tone and racing stripes must be optional and also tata should introduce automatic gearbox with this
Please do detail comparison drive video between Hyundai i20 N line and Altroz Racer too. Thanks!
Thanks for review
have you tested the average in the city?
0-100 in more than 11 seconds, how they can justify calling this a racer🤦
To be honest we don't have any racer cars in India... Wee need the global cars from Hyundai, Suzuki, Toyota.. the homologations wrc cars
Its got stripes to make it look fast
It has racing stripes, thats why its a racer!
If it was 900kg like maruti cars then Altroz racer will take off like fighter jet 😂😂😂😂
@@uneshtamang 1030 KG Fronx Manual Turbo with 98 BHP and 148 NM does 0-100 in 10.2 seconds. Altroz Racer with 20 +BHP and 20+ NM should have been able to do better with better P/w ratios. (Fronx- 95/ton, Racer- 105/ton)
I have an iturbo and with better shifting I managed to clock it in around 10.7 seconds,I think racer would make it to 10-10.5 sec with proper shifting
Actually, a Nexon EV is already a fast car from Tata since 2021.
the stripes, dual tone color and mainly the sunroof must have been optional. I'm stuck between this and the xuv 3x0 ax5l.
What are your suggestions? any help would be great
Go for the Swift. Its a fun to drive car and has the same acceleration from 0 to 100 kmph as the Altroz racer. Plus it gives you a mileage of 20 + kmpl. The XUV 3XO has very poor mileage, seen videos where it only manages 8 kmpl. Maruti's service is also extremely good. A local mechanic forgot to connect the radiator fan to the battery on my vehicle after a clutch plate replacement. After driving it from Bangalore to Hyderabad, the car overheated in the city. Managed to get it to a nearby Maruti service station who rectified the issue without charging me.
Altroz Racer's dynamics are well sorted, its the faster and more fun to drive car among the two. Though the XUV 3xo Petrol does have more power and torque, its extremely heavy weight does not help its case. (200kgs heavier than Altroz) Milege of Racer also should be better.
The boot of Xuv 3xo is the smallest in its own segment, its comparable to a premium hatchback. Though legroom, shoulder room and headroom is much better in 3xo, as its a compact suv.
There are not much differences in features between the R3 Racer and Ax5L (Petrol) Varients, Xuv has rear disks, 2 zone climate control, 60:40 rear split seats, front and rear usb, 3 pt seatbelts for all seats, level 2 adas, while Altroz has xpress cool, ventilated seats, ambient lighting, air purifer.
3xo's more loaded package comes for an extra 1 Lakh rupees in ex showroom price (10.99 vs 11.99).
Both are very safe 5 star rated cars.
Whichever brand provides good service experience in your locality, go for that brand
@@desidaarghotiyadhokhlasing8175 wow thanks for putting so much effort, with your answer..really appreciate it. Thanks.
@@alileevil Baleno is a better option than the new swift. Its Overpriced and also a downgrade on refinement, power just for extra milege.
Its prices are now overlapping with Baleno and Altroz NA models which have more features and baleno also has the better engine.
The 0-100 acceleration of New Swift is NOT as good as Racer altroz with around 11.3 seconds. In fact most tests are suggesting over 13 seconds for 0-100. Slower by nearly 2 seconds compared to old swift.
@@alileevil just not a fan of Maruti for some reason.
Now TATA owners can race to the service centre faster
🤣
INDICA🔥🔥🔥
People will compare this car with XUV 3XO base model @7.5 lacs...Jo ki milne wali nahi hai !!
I think altroz diesel discontinued
Lol. Why would you think so? It's still very much on sale
this is the same video of a tamil/southguy channel
Oh we thought south is also in India!🧐
@@pauldundigalla Did I mention any India here ?
Brother I'm the same guy and that channel name is Autotrend Tamil. We also have this English channel
@@rishikausshik00 Great!! Keep bringing in content like this!!
@@AM-sp5hy so were you referring to South Korea?
Is that rust already forming on the exhaust 3:06
It comes like that only from the showroom
It's not rust
@@rishikausshik00 Then what is it?
@@rishikausshik00 yes it is. 😂 The exhaust sounds okay but it's cheap and dirty. After all, it's tata so what can one expect.
@@dot.5070 sir you can check on your car also. Just leave a car for a month without using and you can see a similar later on brake discs and all. This is an oxide layer that occurs on every galvanized steel that is unpainted. Get to study some basic metallurgy.
I request TATA to fix the locking system first instead of launching special variants in Nexon
How much did u clock 0 to 100??
Approx 12s. Claimed is 11.3s
@@rishikausshik00 it's strange, considering that they're marketing it as a racer, an under 10 sec time would be apt. Though, overall drive matters most. Urs is the first review I saw 👍
@@rishikausshik00 But even the iturbo they've claimed it as 12s. So, the updated torque, ECU update all accounted for just 0.7s ?
@@prudhvi953 The lag of Iturbo altroz is better contained than the Nexon Revetron Turbo which has been put into the Racer. So its certainly faster, but not enough to help it do 0-100 under 11 seconds. The only Tata ICE that ever did that was JTP developed with Jayem
@@desidaarghotiyadhokhlasing8175 I own an Altroz diesel, it clocked a little bit over 25k km in 8 months and on good days can do 0 to 100 in 12 seconds where it lags is 0 to 10 but if counted from 10 to 100 it will be significantly faster. I always doubted indirect injection turbo engines and it proves again. Never drove JTP but heard great praises about it. Driven I20 Nline MT, Slavia, Virtus (AT, MT 1.0, MT 1.5 DSG 1.5, MT) many times I can certainly vouch for the difference between direct and indirect injection. Hope Tata could fix this with their upcoming TGDi engines. Still wondering if TATA is late to the party and if Racer is worth the price and hype.
a slow racer
10hp extra for nothing!
0.7s faster than the iTurbo. Wish it was faster.
I don't know what the hell tata doing for the past 1 years.same design.same tuning as Nexon..social media promotion gimmicks for this crap !!!@@prudhvi953
