This premium hatchback swiftly climbed the ranks, winning hearts and becoming one of Tata’s top-selling premium hatchback. Facing fierce competition from Maruti Baleno and Hyundai i20, the Altroz comes across as a formidable contender in its segment. With the success of the Altroz, Tata Motors will now come with the Racer Edition. Essentially a hot hatch version, the upcoming variant highlights the versatility of the platform. Interestingly, a digital rendering by Binny Zacharia even gives us a sneak peek into the Tata Altroz-based 7-seater MPV.
