The Tata Altroz Racer is all set to hit the markets in the coming days to take on the likes of the Hyundai i20 N Line. Ahead of its launch, Tata Motors has started accepting its bookings. Expect it to be priced around Rs 10 lakh (ex-showroom).
Tata Altroz Racer – What’s Special?
The Racer, essentially the sportier version of the Altroz hatchback, will boast distinctive exterior and interior finishes, an enhanced equipment list, and a more powerful petrol engine underneath the hood.
Unique Visual Elements
As revealed at the 2023 Auto Expo, the Altroz Racer will come finished in a dual-tone shade, with a contrasting black finish on the hood and roof, accented by white racing stripes that enhance its sporty appeal. Tata is reported to offer the Altroz Racer in three pain options – Atomic Orange, Avenue White and Pure Grey.
Inside, the hot hatch will flaunt an all-black cabin theme complemented by the corresponding exterior colour around the AC vents, centre console, gearbox and seat upholstery.
Variants and Features
As per the leaks, the Altroz Racer will be offered in three variants – R1, R2 and R3.
- The Altroz Racer R1 variant is reported to be more comprehensively equipped than the standard Altroz’s top-spec XZ+ trim. It will include additional features such as side & curtain airbags, a 10.25-inch infotainment touchscreen system, and a sportier exhaust.
- The Altroz Racer R2 will further be loaded with a 7-inch digital instrument cluster, powered sunroof, wireless smartphone charging, and a segment-first 360-degree camera with a blind spot monitor system.
