Altroz in Chennai: questions buyers ask
Will the Altroz handle Chennai's rain flooding?
Its 165 mm ground clearance is fine for normal wet roads but lower than an SUV's, so avoid deep water during the northeast monsoon. Engine protection cover is worth adding, since water damage is often excluded otherwise.
Is the Altroz Smart's air conditioning manual?
Tata fits it with what it calls an ETC system, a simpler setup than full automatic climate control. The Clima Touch automatic system starts one step up, on the Altroz Pure, which we think is the better buy in Chennai's heat.
Which Altroz has a sunroof without the top price?
The Altroz Pure S, which is the Altroz Pure with a voice assisted electric sunroof. The Altroz Creative S pairs a sunroof with the 360 degree camera, and every Altroz Accomplished variant has one.
Does the Altroz CNG automatic suit Chennai traffic?
It works well for long daily commutes on OMR, since CNG is cheaper per kilometre and the AMT spares your left leg. The trade offs are no cruise control and a 210 litre boot instead of 345 litres.
Is the top Altroz Accomplished Plus S DCA worth it over the Altroz Accomplished S DCA?
Only for the tech lovers. It adds a blind spot monitor, a 26.03 cm digital cluster with map view and iRA connected car features with SOS calling. The rest of the car is the same.
