The Altroz has been awarded five stars in Global NCAP crash tests for its sound structure. However, it still lacks safety kit such as ESP and side and curtain airbags. On offer are corner brake control, 16-inch alloys, projector headlamps with LED DRLs, a part-digital instrument cluster, a 7.0-inch touchscreen with Android Auto and Apple CarPlay, ambient lighting and cruise control, among the notable features. The Harman speakers set a new benchmark in the segment when it comes to sound quality. What’s new here is the e-SIM-based connected car features which offer remote lock/unlock, geofencing, vehicle tracking and more via a smartphone application. Kit such as wireless charging, an air purifier, LED headlamps and a sunroof still don’t make it to the equipment list, though.
