The Tata Curvv and Tata Curvv EV have been revealed following multiple spy images and teasers, albeit the automaker hasn’t shown the exterior of the two SUV-coupe models. Tata will first reveal the Curvv’s electric version’s pricing; the ICE (internal combustion engine) version will follow later. Several Tata dealerships are taking offline reservations for the Curvv even though Tata has not yet opened its order books for the vehicle.

Design

The Curvv is our market’s first mass-market SUV-coupe option. Its overall style, nevertheless, seems to draw inspiration from current Tata automobiles. Connected LED DRLs and an all-LED headlight configuration on the bumper are features shared by the ICE and EV variants. The Curvv ICE model has a blacked-out grille, whereas the EV model has a closed-off, body-colored panel for the grille.

The Curvv EV has alloy wheels with an aerodynamic design, while the ICE version has dual-tone, petal-shaped alloy wheels. They both receive flush door handles, which are unique to Tata vehicles. Both Curvv models have an integrated LED tail light assembly on the back.

Interior

Tata hasn’t revealed the Curvv and Curvv EV’s inside, but it will probably resemble the Tata Nexon’s. The Harrier-Safari team is responsible for the 4-spoke steering wheel, which features an illuminated Tata emblem.

Features & Safety

Both the ICE and EV variants should come equipped with a panoramic sunroof, ventilated front seats, a 10.25-inch completely digital driver’s display, and a 12.3-inch touchscreen. Six airbags, a 360-degree camera with blind view monitor, electronic stability control, and an extensive array of advanced driver assistance systems (ADAS) are expected to ensure passenger safety.

Powertrain Options

The long anticipated 1.2-liter T-GDi (turbo-petrol) engine will probably make its debut in the Curvv ICE. In addition, a 1.5-liter diesel engine, which is taken from the Nexon, is a possibility. Below is a thorough description of the specifications:

Engine1.2-litre T-GDi turbo-petrol1.5-litre diesel
Power125 PS115 PS
Torque225 Nm260 Nm
Transmission6-speed MT, 7-speed DCT (expected)6-speed MT

On the other hand, the Curvv EV may have two different battery pack choices and a 500 km explained range. Tata has not yet disclosed the details of the Curvv EV’s electric powertrain or battery pack.

Launch, Expected Price & Rivals

The Curvv EV’s price will be revealed initially by Tata, and it may begin at Rs 20 lakh (ex-showroom). The Curvv’s ICE variant may start at Rs 10.50 lakh (ex-showroom). The Curvv EV will compete directly with the Citroen Basalt while also taking on vehicles like the MG ZS EV and the soon-to-be Hyundai Creta EV. Additionally, it can be thought of as a substitute for small SUVs such as the Volkswagen Taigun, MG Astor, Hyundai Creta, Kia Seltos, Maruti Grand Vitara, Toyota Hyryder, Honda Elevate, Citroen C3 Aircross, and Skoda Kushaq.
