In a surprisingly new effort, Tata Motors is recognising the talent of all those Olympians who missed the bronze medal by a margin and will give them the premium hatchback, Altroz, for their effort. The carmaker believes that they have inspired the nation at an international level and have set the standard for others to follow.
Tata Motors has decided to gift the Olympians the Altroz in the High Street Gold colour scheme. The carmaker thanks the sheer hard work, dedication and the Gold standard set by the Olympians who represented India at the Tokyo Olympics.
According to Mr Shailesh Chandra, President, Passenger Vehicle Business, Tata Motors, For India, this Olympics was about a lot more than medals and podium finishes. We are fortunate to celebrate the effort and spirit of our athletes representing our country, competing under the highest pressure against the absolute best talent the world has to offer and coming extremely close to a podium finish.

They might have missed a medal but they have won the hearts of millions of Indians, with their dedication and are a true inspiration for budding athletes in India. As the leading homegrown automotive brand, we truly understand the spirit of Dare to Dream and Achieve, as it is a culture that drives us in Tata Motors as well.
The Tata Altroz has set new benchmarks in its segment by achieving the Gold standard in Safety, Design and Performance. It is our privilege to honour the spirit of these path-breakers and present them a small token that signifies the Gold Standard, the Altroz.
As of now, it is now clear about the variant nor the engine specs as to what will be delivered to the players. Only the High Street Gold colour scheme and the facilitating of the Altroz is in the pipeline.
Tata Altroz is offered in three engine options - 1.2L naturally aspirated petrol ( 85 bhp/ 113 Nm), 1.2L iTurbo ( 108 bhp/ 140 Nm) and a 1.5L diesel (89 bhp/ 200 Nm). All these engines are paired with a 5-speed stick shift and the availability of an automatic gearbox is not yet on the offer.
