Pros Cons of Tata Altroz

Pros

  • Five-star Bharat NCAP safety rating
  • Dual 10.25-inch screens
  • The addition of the AMT to the CNG variants

Cons

  • The naturally aspirated petrol feels sluggish
  • No turbo-petrol engine option
  • Rear-seat headroom is slightly tight

Verdict

The Tata Altroz honestly is one of the most structurally sound vehicles you can buy under Rs. 10 lakh. Tata addressed its biggest shortcomings with the recent update, swapping out the dated cabin screens for class-leading digital displays and adding standard six airbags to bolster its safety credentials. While the naturally aspirated petrol engine lacks outright punch, the availability of a torquey diesel and an incredibly practical AMT CNG configuration no doubt gives the Altroz an edge over its rivals.

Jaiveer summarises,

“Tata has really nailed it when it comes to the ride and handling mix in its range of cars, and the same holds for the Altroz as well.”

Pros Cons of Volkswagen Polo

Pros

  • TSI technology boosts performance
  • The petrol engine is efficient
  • Driving dynamics remain unchanged and that’s a big plus

Cons

  • Design remains unchanged
  • A Diesel engine could have been advantageous as it opens up to a new set of buyers
  • There are no new features on the car

Verdict

The Polo remains at the top of the table when it comes to driving experience in the premium hatchback segment. Volkswagen have got everything right with the car but the addition of features would have been helpful.
