Compare Tata Altroz XE Rhythm and XM variant.

As the entry-level variant of the Altroz, the XE doesn’t offer much in terms of comfort. But if you’re stretching your budget for a premium hatchback instead of a mid-spec mid-size hatchback, it is worth considering. In fact, it is the most affordable BS6-compliant offering in the segment as of now with the introductory prices. Between the petrol and diesel, we’d recommend the petrol variant at this price point as the premium for the diesel is hard to justify. However, we would not recommend Rhythm package as third-party audio systems with more features are readily available in the market at a lower price. On the other hand, XM comes at a significant price hike over the entry-level variant, but it offers more comforts, especially power-adjustable autofold ORVMs and rear power windows. The XM should be the base-spec Altroz in terms of features but it’s hard to justify the price gap over the XE variant. It even misses out on basic features like a height-adjustable driver seat and manual day and night inside rearview mirror (IRVM). You may compare both variants accordingly.
