The upcoming Tata Altroz is built on the company's all-new Agile Light Flexible Advanced (ALFA) modular architecture, and it will the second car, after the Harrier, to employ the company Impact Design 2.0 philosophy.

While we do not get to see the cabin here, based on some earlier spy photos, we know that the car will get a newly designed interior with a smart-looking dashboard. The cabin will come with a new steering wheel, the signature floating display, with the central air-con vents and the other in-car controls positioned below. The Altroz will come with creature comforts like automatic climate control, Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, semi-digital instrument cluster, and possibly even rear AC vents. Safety bits are likely to include dual airbags, ABS with EBD, rear parking sensors, seat belt reminder, and high-speed alert as standard, while optional features could include additional airbags, rear parking camera and more.
The technical specifications are yet to be announced, however, the new Tata Altroz is expected to borrow the 1.2-litre turbocharged petrol engine from the Nexon, which will be BS6 compliant from the start. Right now, there is no confirmation on a diesel-powered Altroz.
