Tata Curvv.ev Launched In India; Prices Start At ₹17.49 Lakh

Tata Motors has expanded its EV portfolio in India with the launch of the new Curvv.ev at a starting price of ₹17.49 lakh (ex-showroom, India). The flagship Curvv.ev is positioned above the Nexon.ev in the company’s EV range in India and is the first compact electric SUV from the Indian carmaker. The Curvv.ev rivals the likes of the BYD Atto 3 and the MG ZS EV in the market.

The Tata Curvv.ev makes a bold statement with its SUV-coupe body style, characterised by a distinctive sloping roofline. Design elements of the Curvv.ev includes extensive use of LED daytime running lights (DRLs), headlights at the front, and connected LED taillights at the rear. These lighting elements come with welcome and goodbye animations when the vehicle is locked or unlocked.

The sloping roofline is the main highlight in the profile, accompanied by aerodynamic alloy wheels and flush door handles. Piano-black elements around the wheel arches and side sills inject a rugged feel into the design. At the rear, the sloping roofline integrates with the rear windscreen and tailgate, complemented by a shark fin antenna and roof-mounted twin spoiler. The rear bumper features a clear division from the body, accentuated by a piano black finish and a silver skid plate. Tata says the Curvv.ev will get a 500-litre boot and an 11.6-litre frunk, the second EV from the company to receive it after the Punch.ev.

Tata Motors is positioning the Curvv.ev as a feature-rich vehicle. It features a 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment system compatible with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, a 10.25-inch digital driver’s display, single-zone automatic climate control, a panoramic sunroof, auto-dimming interior rearview mirror (IRVM), various drive modes (Eco, City, and Sport), and a wireless phone charger. Additional features include ventilated seats, vehicle-to-load (V2L) functionality, and a JBL sound system.

Safety is a strong focus for the Curvv.ev, and it has even scored a 5-star rating from Bharat NCAP. The vehicle comes equipped with 6 airbags as standard, an Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) with Electronic Brakeforce Distribution (EBD), front and rear parking sensors, a 360-degree camera, Electronic Stability Control, and Advanced Driver Assistance Systems (ADAS).

The Tata Currv.ev will be available in two trims- Curvv.ev 45 and Curvv.ev 55- denoting its battery packs of 45 kWh and 55 kWh respectively. This results in a travel of 502 km and 585 km respectively, while the larger battery pack sprints from 0-100 km in 8.6 seconds. The Curvv.ev 55 develops 165 bhp and receives 4 regeneration modes toggled via paddle shifters.
