Tata Motors Introduces AMT Option In Altroz iCNG Range

Tata Motors Passenger Vehicles has introduced an AMT option in the Altroz iCNG line-up, expanding the hatchback’s powertrain portfolio with a two-pedal transmission paired to its CNG powertrain.

With the launch, Tata Motors says the Altroz iCNG is now the first premium hatchback in India to offer an AMT gearbox with a factory-fitted CNG setup. Prices for the Altroz iCNG AMT start at Rs 8.69 lakh (ex-showroom, Delhi) and go up to Rs 10.76 lakh for the top-spec Accomplished S variant.

The Altroz iCNG AMT is powered by Tata’s 1.2-litre Revotron iCNG engine, producing 73.5 PS and 103 Nm in CNG mode. The company says the AMT has been introduced to improve drivability and ease of use, particularly in urban traffic conditions.

The model continues with Tata Motors’ twin-cylinder iCNG technology, which places the CNG cylinders beneath the luggage compartment floor. Tata claims this allows the Altroz iCNG to retain a usable 210-litre boot space, compared to the reduced cargo capacity typically associated with CNG vehicles. Petrol and diesel variants offer 345 litres of boot space.

Vivek Srivatsa, Chief Commercial Officer, Tata Passenger Electric Mobility Ltd, said, “With the introduction of AMT in the iCNG line-up, we are addressing a clear and growing customer need for greater convenience in CNG vehicles.”

The Altroz iCNG AMT also continues with features such as connected LED tail lamps, LED headlamps with DRLs, twin digital displays for infotainment and instrumentation, ambient lighting and rear AC vents. Safety equipment includes six airbags, ESP, ISOFIX mounts, and reverse parking sensors as standard.

Tata Motors said CNG penetration in India rose to 19 per cent in FY25 and further increased to 22 per cent in FY26, with adoption expanding beyond traditional CNG-focused regions.
