Tata HBX Small UV To Launch By October 2021
Tata Motors is working on multiple new models for India. The HBX concept-based small UV goes to be a subsequent big launch from the company. the tiny SUV was scheduled to be launched within the second quarter of 2021; however, the launch has been pushed by 1 / 4 because of the COVID-19 pandemic. Tata HBX small utility vehicle is going to be launched before Diwali 2021, around September-October.
Rumored to be called the Tata Timero, the new compact UV will rival the Maruti Suzuki Ignis and thus the upcoming Hyundai AX1. it'll be the brand’s second model to be supported by the ALFA modular platform; the Altroz being the first model.
The Tata Timero is predicted to be powered by a 1.2-liter 3-cylinder naturally-aspirated petrol engine that also powers the Tiago, Tigor, and therefore the Altroz. This engine gives 86bhp of power and 113Nm of torque. the tiny UV could also get the 1.2L turbocharged petrol engine with power output on the brink of 100bhp. Transmission options are likely to include a 5-speed manual and a 5-speed AMT (Automated Manual Transmission).
The production version of the Tata HBX has already been caught repeatedly on the Indian roads. It gets a split headlamp setup with sleek LED DRLs on top and thus the most headlamp unit lower on the bumper. there's chrome underlining for the upper front grille and DRLs, while the lower grille has an inverted tri-arrow design on the mesh. The bumper accommodates fog lamps and wider air intakes. the tiny SUV will get machined-cut alloys, LED taillights, C-pillar mounted rear door handles, blacked-out C-pillar, etc.
The concept model was 3,840mm long, 1822mm in width, and 1635mm tall with a wheelbase of 2450mm. it's expected that the assembly version HBX will measure almost just like the concept. The cabin goes to be shared with the Altroz hatchback. it'll get a free-standing touchscreen infotainment system, a 3-spoke flat-bottom wheel, fabric seats, a semi-digital instrument console, etc.
