2024 Tata Altroz range: what’s new?
Priced from Rs 9 lakh, the new Altroz XZ LUX variant adds the larger 10.25-inch touchscreen (with a new operating system), a 360-degree camera, and wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay. For an additional Rs 65,000, the Altroz XZ+S LUX (Rs 9.65 lakh) further adds four more airbags. The range-topping XZ+ OS trim used to be priced from Rs 9.65 lakh, but with the added features – including Tata's in-car connectivity tech and an air purifier – prices have increased to Rs 9.99 lakh; it costs Rs 34,000 more than before.
Do note than these prices are all for the petrol-manual variants. The two new variants are available in petrol-manual, petrol-DCT, CNG-MT and diesel-MT configurations. The Altroz XZ+ OS is still only offered in petrol form only.
Other features like an electric sunroof, cruise control, rear AC vents, auto climate control, 90-degree opening doors, auto headlamps and rain-sensing wipers have been carried over. However, leatherette seats have been removed from the car and reserved for the Altroz Racer exclusively.
As mentioned above, the Altroz will continue to be offered with its 88hp, 1.2-litre, three-cylinder naturally aspirated petrol and 90hp, 1.5-litre, four-cylinder diesel engine options. The petrol engine also gets an optional CNG kit. With the introduction of the Altroz Racer, the 110hp, 1.2-litre turbo-petrol engine that was available with the i-Turbo version has now been discontinued. Transmission options on the standard Altroz include a standard 5-speed MT, and an optional 7-speed dual-clutch automatic for the petrol engine.
