2024 Tata Altroz Racer Vs. Hyundai i20 N Line

Here’s a list of features that are available in the top R3 variant of the 2024 Altroz Racer but not available in the top N8 variant of the 2024 i20 N Line:

1. Front Ventilated Seats

The Tata Altroz Racer offers front ventilated seats in its top R3 variant whereas the i20 N Line does not offer this feature in any variant.

They use a system of fans and perforated upholstery to circulate cool air, keeping you comfortable and fresh, especially on hot and humid days.

3. Blindspot Monitor

The 2024 Altroz Racer also offers a blind view monitor in its R2 and R3 variants. This feature is not available in any variants of the 2024 i20 N Line. Blindspot cameras offer significant advantages for drivers, enhancing safety and overall driving experience. It eliminates blindspots of the outside rearview mirrors by providing a live video feed of areas hidden from your view, minimising the risk of collisions when changing lanes or merging with traffic.

4. Air Purifier

Ever since the 2020 global pandemic, modern cars are offered with an air purifier, at least in their top variants, as they offer several advantages. An air purifier in car captures dust, pollen, smoke, and harmful exhaust fumes circulating inside the car, leading to cleaner and healthier air for you and your passengers. It also neutralises unpleasant odours from traffic fumes, smoke, pets, or spilled food, leaving your car smelling fresh and clean.

The Tata Altroz offers an air purifier in its top R3 variant while Hyundai do not offer this feature in any variants of the i20 N Line.

5. Xpress Cool

Last but not least, the Tata Altroz Racer offers Xpress Cool, a feature borrowed from the Nexon. Xpress Cool rolls down the driver-side window completely and sets the blower at full speed at the press of a button. This feature allows better air circulation inside the cabin and cools the interior quickly.
