In detail, it will make use of a wide and bold looking grille at the front which will be further complemented by its blacked-out dual-barrel projector headlamps. On the lower side, it will feature a beefy front bumper with large mid-set fog lamps. At the rear will sit a unique two-part boot-lid sporting a perhaps complex 3-D design.
Moreover, the sharp and angular tail lamps will connect by a translucent black appliqué, lending it a very edgy tail end design.
Inside the cabin, the Tata Altroz will make use of a dual-tone grey and black interior color scheme. While its flat-bottom steering wheel will sport silver inserts along with white stitching. Also, the Altroz will feature a much modern-looking semi-digital cluster and cruise control function, as revealed before.
The Tata Altroz has been built on the 'Advanced Modular Platform (Alfa-Arc)' which was developed in-house by the company.

As for the mechanicals, expect the Altroz to source power from a variety of petrol and diesel engines.
