Tata Altroz standard variants becomes most affordable car to get sunroof

Tata Motors has introduced new features in its premium hatchback Altroz soon after the launch of its CNG version last month. The carmaker has extended some of the features introduced for the first time in Altroz iCNG, like the sunroof, in standard variants too. Tata Altroz is only the second model in its segment after the Hyundai i20 to offer this feature, and is also the most affordable car in India to get it.

The electric sunroof in the Altroz comes with voice command feature. One will be able to operate the sunroof by the click of a button mounted on the steering control and command the system to open or shut it. This is also a first in the segment as the Hyundai i20 offers a manually operated sunroof.

Among other features, the Altroz will now come with wireless charger and air purifier. Both these features have already been introduced in the CNG version of the Altroz.

Tata Motors is offering the sunroof features in all powertrain options now. The variants which will get sunroof include XM+, XMA+, XZ+, XZA+ for petrol and turbo-petrol variants. In diesel, Tata will offer sunroof in XM+ S, XZ+ S and XZ+ S Dark variants. The price of the Altroz variants with sunroof starts from ₹7.90 lakh (ex-showroom) and goes up to ₹10.74 lakh (ex-showroom). The variants with sunroof usually costs ₹45,000 more than the one without the feature.
