1. New Design
Visually, the 2025 Altroz has undergone a bold transformation. Up front, it gets a sleeker grille design and sharp twin-pod LED headlights with neatly integrated LED DRLs. The updated front and rear bumpers bring a more mature, athletic look to the hatchback. Flush-fitting door handles and a new alloy wheel design add a layer of premium appeal rarely seen in the segment. At the rear, a connected LED light bar gives the Altroz a futuristic edge.
2. Segment-First Engine Lineup
Tata Motors is pulling no punches when it comes to engine variety. The 2025 Altroz is expected to lead the pack with four different powertrains - more than any other car in its class. The options include:
- A reliable 1.2-litre naturally aspirated petrol engine for everyday usability.
- The punchy 1.2-litre turbocharged petrol (sourced from the Altroz Racer) delivering 118 bhp - aimed at enthusiasts.
- A torquey 1.5-litre diesel engine for long-distance commuters.
- And a cleaner 1.2-litre CNG option for those prioritising lower running costs.
Each engine is tuned to cater to a different type of buyer, from city slickers to highway warriors.
3. Interior Refinement
The changes are equally impressive on the inside. The cabin has been reworked with a dual-tone theme and subtle touches of beige to make the space feel more open and premium. The seats now offer better support with improved cushioning, including extra thigh support at the rear. Adjustable rear headrests, a centre armrest with cupholders and a redesigned flat-bottom steering wheel with illuminated controls bring a premium car vibe into the hatchback territory.
4. Top-Tier Safety
Safety continues to be a strong suit for the Altroz. Built on Tata's proven Alpha Architecture, the hatchback retains its 5-star Global NCAP safety rating. For 2025, Tata is offering six airbags as standard, along with advanced safety features like a 360-degree camera, blind spot monitoring, tyre pressure sensors, and 3-point seatbelts for all passengers. Tata is clearly focused on offering peace of mind without compromise.
5. Feature-Rich Technology Suite
Tata's latest iteration of the Altroz doesn't skimp on features either. At the heart of the dashboard sits a 10.25-inch infotainment screen powered by Harman, complete with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto. For the driver, a fully digital 10.25-inch instrument cluster with navigation support ensures a high-tech experience.
Other highlights include a wireless charging pad, touch-based climate control, electrically folding ORVMs, cruise control, and even a single-pane sunroof - making it one of the most feature-loaded hatchbacks in the respective segment.
