Tata Altroz vs Honda Amaze Comparison 2026: Price, Mileage, Features

Comparison overview: The Tata Altroz starts at ₹6.00 L and the Honda Amaze at ₹7.65 L, a difference of ₹1.65 L ex-showroom. On-road in New Delhi that gap becomes roughly ₹1.83 L. Here is what the extra money actually buys.

Mileage and running cost: These two figures are not like for like. The Tata Altroz number is for the Diesel/Petrol/CNG Automatic/Manual and the Honda Amaze number is for the Petrol Automatic/Manual, so compare the variants you are actually shortlisting.

Only the Tata Altroz comes with a factory CNG option at 23.6,19.3,26.2 km/kg, which is the cheapest way to run either car in the city.

Space and practicality: The Honda Amaze takes 416 litres against 345, about 71 litres more. That is roughly one extra cabin-size bag of extra room.

What one gives that the other does not: The Tata Altroz adds Child Safety Locks, Tyre Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS), Speed Sensing Auto Door Lock, Blind Spot Camera and Impact Sensing Auto Door Unlock. The Honda Amaze adds Anti-Theft Alarm, Pretensioners & Force Limiter Seatbelts, Hill Assist, Adjustable Headlamps and Alloy Wheels. The rest of both spec sheets is shared.

Which one should you buy?

Buy the Tata Altroz if you drive mostly in the city, you want the lower running cost, and you would rather keep the ₹1.65 L for your down payment than spend it on features.

Buy the Honda Amaze if you do regular highway runs, you carry luggage or a pram often, and you want Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) without waiting for the next facelift.

The one thing that settles it: Tata Altroz offers Child Safety Locks.

Before you sign anything:

Ex-showroom price is not what you pay. Add registration, road tax, insurance and handling, and expect the final figure to land ten to twelve percent higher. Road tax changes state to state, so a car that costs the same in two cities does not cost the same to own.

Ask the dealer four things before you book. What is the current waiting period for the variant you want. What is the on-road figure.

Then drive both cars back to back on the same day, on a road you actually use. Take your family. Put your usual luggage in the boot. Most people decide in the first ten minutes, and it is rarely for the reason they expected.
