While the Altroz does have better road presence, its lower variants disappoint with skinny tyres. The Altroz has a much wider body and bigger wheels with wider tyres, but the lower variants with 165-section tyres don't quite belong on a B2 segment premium hatchback.
The Altroz’ top variant costs a fair bit more than the Tigor’s but it more than makes up for the price gap with more than enough features.
