Compared to the outgoing car, the facelifted Tata Altroz features new LED headlights, brow-shaped DRLs, vertical recesses for the fog lamp housings and a new design for the grille at the front. Changes to the side are marked by refreshed alloy wheels (which now have an EV-like design) and flush-fitting front door handles (with illumination like the Tata Curvv SUV). Also, the fender-mounted vertical indicators have been deleted for a cleaner look.
