News & Top StoriesAfter making its debut at Auto Expo 2023, the Altroz Racer vanished from view. However, it has subsequently reappeared with updated features and a revised appearance.
The Tata Altroz Racer made its debut at the Auto Expo 2023. In 2024, at the Bharat Mobility Expo, a revised and more aggressive iteration of the high-end hatchback has made its debut. Even though it’s still only a “concept,” we anticipate seeing the improved Altroz Racer go on sale in 2024. Let’s examine the modifications made to the 2024 Altroz Racer
New Paint Option And Grille
The Altroz Racer made its debut at Auto Expo 2023 in a bright red color, but the latest model, which was shown at the Bharat Mobility Expo 2024, has a brand-new orange paint job. The two white stripes that extend from the hood to the top of the roof are still present.
The updated grille design of the Altroz Racer now features a mesh-like pattern that complements the sporty design changes. This is another modification to the vehicle. The pre-facelift Tiago and Tigor-like trapezoidal grille pieces were present in the previous version.
Wheels Made of Alloy
Tata has also fitted a more fashionable set of 16-inch 10-spoke dual-tone alloy wheels to the new Altroz Racer. Conversely, the earlier model featured blacked-out units that were identical to the ordinary Altroz in terms of design.
New Colour Upholstery And Gear Shifter
Tata has revised the orange hue of the ambient lighting and red inlays to match the new exterior color of the 2024 Altroz Racer. The orange tone has been added to its colored accents and contrast stitching on the upholstery and steering wheel. The new color is even applied to the ambient lighting in the dashboard, footwell sections, and wireless phone charging dock.
The center console of the new Altroz Racer has undergone a minor but notable modification. The shifter used on the basic Altroz has been replaced with a 5-speed gear shifter akin to that of the new Tata Nexon.
A 360-degree Camera
A 360-degree camera is one of the new features added to the Altroz Racer’s equipment list. The front camera is visible; it is situated directly behind the Tata logo. There was simply a reverse camera on the previous Altroz Racer. The Maruti Baleno is likewise equipped with this capability.
An HUD, or heads-up display
The 2024 Altroz Racer now includes a HUD as well, however it’s unclear how big the screen is. Nevertheless, compared to the previous version, it is a significant improvement in terms of convenience and safety and is probably going to transmit vital information such as the gear position indication, current speed, and fuel economy. We would have rather to see the larger 10.25-inch completely digital driver’s display from the new Nexon instead of the outdated 7-inch TFT in the semi-digital cluster, even though this is a premium feature.
The modified Tata Altroz Racer now has all of these modifications. It is powered by the same 1.2-liter turbo-petrol engine (170 Nm/120 PS) and manual transmission as the Altroz Racer from earlier models. Which of these modifications would you most like to see implemented into the Altroz Racer when it launches? Tell us in the comments below.
