Altroz competes directly with the likes of 'Maruti Baleno', 'Toyota Galanza' and 'Hyundai i20'. 'Baleno' and 'Glanza' also offer CNG options, but only with manual gearboxes. In such a situation, Altroz will attract customers who are looking for an automatic CNG car with luxury. Altroz comes with many segment-first features.
How is the exterior design of Tata Altroz ?
No changes have been made to the design of Altroz. The company has retained its iconic 'aero-dynamic' look.
Front profile;-The front of this car gets the signature 'Humanity Line' grille and sharp-looking projector headlamps. Its sporty bumper and wide air intakes give it a muscular hatchback feel.
Side profile;- When viewed from the side, this car gets the same 16-inch dual-tone alloy wheels as before. The biggest feature of the Altroz is its '90-degree opening doors', which is still unchanged. This makes it very easy to get the elderly and children in and out of the car.
Rear profile;- At the rear, it has a black-out treated oil gate and split LED oil lamps. 'iCNG' and 'AMT' badging has been given across the diagonal rear, which distinguishes it from the standard model.
How is the interior design of the Tata Altroz ?

The automatic variant gets an updated gear lever and ambient lighting with a gloss black finish across the dashboard.
This car has a segment-first 10.25-inch fully digital driver display, which offers maps and customization options. A 10.25-inch touchscreen infotainment system is also present in the center.
