Talking about the Alturas G4, the car is expected to get slight cosmetic changes like a new front grille and a set of sleeker alloy wheels. In terms of interior layout and design, the SUV will likely continue to have the same design as the 2019 version. Mechanically, the car is expected to get the same engine as the outgoing model, but with slight changes to make it BS-VI compliant. The 2019 Alturas G4 is fitted with a Ssangyong sourced 2.2-liter diesel engine which produces around 178 HP and 420 Nm of peak torque. The engine is then paired with a 7-speed automatic transmission, which is sourced from Mercedes-Benz. Also, the car is available in both 2-wheel drive and 4-wheel drive variants.

The car is available with two transmission options: a 6-speed manual gearbox or a 6-speed AMT. Also, the XUV300 is only available in 2-wheel drive variants.
