Tata Motors has finally launched the much-awaited sportier iteration of the Altroz, dubbed the 'Racer', in India. The performance hatchback is available in three variants at a starting ex-showroom price of Rs. 9.49 lakh.

Design and Features
The Altroz Racer can be had in R1, R2, and R3 variants across three color options: Atomic Orange, Avenue White, and Pure Grey. The dual-tone paint scheme, blacked-out roof and bonnet, white strips running across the hood and roof, blacked-out Altroz badging, Dark-themed alloy wheels, and Racer badges across the body distinguish this new version from the standard Altroz. The sporty theme extends inside the car with a blacked-out cabin and red accents over the aircon vents, center console, and seat upholstery.
The Altroz Racer comes loaded with a range of features, including a large 10.25-inch touchscreen infotainment system, wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, automatic climate control, a seven-inch digital instrument panel, 360-degree surround camera with blind spot monitor, air purifier, ambient lighting, ventilated front seats, and an electrically adjustable sunroof. These features provide a premium and modern driving experience.
Engine Performance
At the heart of the Altroz Racer is a 1.2-litre turbocharged petrol motor paired only with a six-speed manual gearbox. This Nexon-sourced engine is tuned to generate 118bhp and 170Nm of peak torque. The Altroz Racer competes against the Hyundai i20 N Line in the performance hatchback segment, offering a thrilling driving experience.
