Indonesia will likely get only the petrol variant.
Tata will launch the Bolt hatchback in the Indonesian market in February 2015, a marketing official of PT TMDI (Tata Motors Distribusi Indonesia) told local reporters. The car will be showcased in Indonesia for the first time at the Indonesia International Motor Show (IIMS) which opens its doors on September 18, 2014.
For the Indonesian market, only the petrol variant of the Bolt would go on sale. It is powered by Tata's new 1.2-liter turbocharged Revotron petrol engine which is capable of producing 85 PS (83.8 bhp) and 140 Nm of torque. The engine will be paired to a 5-speed manual transmission.
