Tata Motors is gearing up to launch the Altroz Racer in the market. The company has been teasing the upcoming hot hatch since the past few days on social media ahead of its supposed launch on 7 June 2024. Prior to that, test mules of the Altroz Racer were spotted on multiple occasions over the last few months.
Now, the brochure of the Altroz Racer has been leaked on the internet which gives out almost every detail of the car, barring the prices of course. It will be available in three trims– R1, R2, and R3.
Tata Altroz Racer: Exterior styling
While the design will remain unchanged, Altroz Racer will get sportier visual touches including a dual-tone paint scheme featuring blacked-out front grille, air dam, bonnet, alloy wheels, pillars and window sills, ORVMs, and tailgate. Other critical visual touches include white race stripes, a roof-mounted spoiler, dual-tone 16-inch alloy wheels, a shark fin antenna, and a ‘Racer’ badge on the front fender.
Tata Altroz Racer: Interiors
Interior layout of the Altroz Racer will be in sync with the updated range of Tata models including Punch and Nexon with a larger 10.25-inch TFT touchscreen infotainment system taking centre stage on the dashboard. The orange accents around the AC vents, centre console and stitching on the seat upholstery adds a touch of contrast and sporty element to the all-black cabin.
