    Tata Altroz iTurbo review, road test

    The Altroz iTurbo gets an automatic engine stop/start feature that turns off the engine while it is idling in order to save fuel. What’s nice is that this system is pretty quick to respond, and brings the engine back to life as soon as the clutch is depressed. Despite leaving this feature on, in the City mode, the turbo Altroz returned merely 8.9kpl in the city. Its efficiency on the highway isn’t anything to write home about either, returning a figure of 14.9kpl. Interestingly, despite missing a sixth gear, the engine spins at a rather lazy 2,500rpm in top gear at 100kph, but the extra overdrive gear would certainly improve efficiency while cruising on an open road.
