With its official launch set for 22 May, the updated 2025 Tata Altroz is already making headlines. Tata Motors has revealed significant upgrades across the board—from styling to features to variants. The premium hatchback will also adopt Tata’s new naming format, positioning it more clearly in an increasingly competitive market. Here’s everything you need to know about the upcoming Altroz facelift.
Variants
The 2025 Altroz will follow Tata’s new variant structure, which includes Smart, Pure, Pure S, Creative, Creative S, Accomplished, and Accomplished+S. These trims will be spread across multiple engine and transmission options, giving buyers a wide range of configurations to choose from. It’s a move that brings more clarity and consistency to Tata’s lineup, similar to what we’ve seen with the Nexon and Punch.
Exterior
The new Altroz is getting a noticeable makeover. The front and rear bumpers are completely redesigned, giving the car a fresher and more aggressive stance. One of the biggest visual updates is the inclusion of flush-fitting pop-out door handles—something we’ve already seen on Tata’s premium offerings.
Tata has also reworked the alloy wheel design. Gone is the spoke-based diamond-cut style, replaced by fan-like patterns that bring a modern, aerodynamic look to the car. These changes may seem subtle, but they collectively elevate the car’s road presence.
Interior
Inside the cabin, the facelifted Altroz brings in a more upmarket vibe. While the interior was recently refreshed in the Racer edition, this facelift takes it further. The top-end Accomplished+S trim boasts a completely redesigned dashboard layout.
New additions include a fully digital instrument cluster, a revamped dual-tone colour scheme, and Tata’s signature two-spoke steering wheel with an illuminated logo. These updates not only improve functionality but also make the cabin feel more premium.
Features
Tata has loaded the Altroz facelift with features, especially in the higher variants. Here’s a quick list of what the Accomplished+S offers:
- Dual digital screens
- 360-degree camera
- Wireless charger
- Rear AC vents
- Connected car tech
- Electrically controlled sunroof
- Full LED lighting setup
- Climate control system
This level of equipment puts the Altroz in direct competition with high-spec versions of the Hyundai i20 and Maruti Baleno.
Powertrain
The engine options remain familiar but flexible. You’ll still get the 1.2-litre Revotron petrol, which is also available in a CNG avatar. The diesel variant continues with the tried-and-tested 1.5-litre unit.
As for gearboxes, you can choose from a five-speed manual, a five-speed AMT, and a six-speed DCT depending on the variant and fuel type. While there’s no word yet on the return of the Racer or Dark Editions, they’re expected to be rolled out later in the year.
Pricing
The expected pricing range is between Rs. 7.50 lakh and Rs. 11.50 lakh (ex-showroom). This keeps it competitively positioned in the premium hatchback space. However, if and when the Racer and Dark Editions arrive, prices could see a bump.
Here’s how it stacks up against the competition:
| Model | Expected Price Range |
|---|---|
| Tata Altroz | Rs. 7.50 – 11.50 lakh |
| Maruti Baleno | Rs. 6.66 – 9.88 lakh |
| Toyota Glanza | Rs. 6.86 – 10.00 lakh |
| Hyundai i20 | Rs. 7.04 – 11.21 lakh |
The Altroz also has some internal competition from the Tata Punch and even cross-segment challengers like the Hyundai Exter.
