The Tata Altroz’s dimensions are comparable with those of its rivals. The Altroz is the widest in its class. It is second longest, after the Maruti Baleno and Toyota Glanza, and is also the second tallest after the Honda Jazz. Thus, the Altroz is a big and spacious premium hatchback. However, the Altroz has the smallest wheelbase in its class, which means that the rear leg space might be compromised a bit. The car also gets a good boot space of 345 litres.

Should You Buy The Tata Altroz XM/ XM Rhythm/ XM Style
The XT variant is Rs. 69,000 more expensive over the XM variant, and for its additional premium it offers a whole bunch of meaningful features. Thus, if you are planning to buy the XM variant or any of its package trims, it is well worth to spend a bit more and settle for the XT variant instead.
However, the XT is not our top recommended variant in the Tata Altroz range. Nevertheless, if you can’t at all stretch your budget further, then the Altroz XT is definitely a good buy.
When it comes to the XT Luxe accessory package, it comes with an added cost of Rs. 39,000 over the XT variant. For this price it offers quite a few features, but we don’t recommend going for it. This is because the XT Luxe’s pricing is very close to the XZ variant, which is what you should actually consider buying instead.
