Tata Motors is all set to launch the Curvv in India next month. It will be one of the first mass-market coupe-SUVs here, and will serve as an alternative to midsize SUVs. Find out answers to common questions about the Tata Curvv below.
What powertrains will be on offer with the Tata Curvv?
The Tata Curvv will be powered by the new 125hp, 1.2-litre, three-cylinder direct-injection turbo-petrol engine available with both manual and automatic gearboxes. It will also get the 115hp, 1.5-litre diesel and 120hp, 1.2-litre turbo-petrol engines from the Nexon. Additionally, the coupe-SUV will also be offered with an EV powertrain and will use Tata’s Gen 2 acti.ev architecture.While technical details are sparse, it will likely offer a 450-500km range.
What features will the Tata Curvv get?
As per our dealer sources, the Tata Curvv will get the four-spoke steering from Harrier, a 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment system, along with a fully-digital driver’s display. Also on offer will be a segment-first powered tail gate with gesture function, a panoramic sunroof, reclining rear seat, ventilated front seats, and more. The top-spec variants will get ADAS Level 2 safety tech.
Will the Tata Curvv be bigger than the Nexon?
The Tata Curvv is based on the Nexon, but will be slightly larger than the compact SUV. In terms of dimensions, the Curvv will be 313mm longer than the Nexon, with a 62mm longer wheelbase. This means that it should offer a better legroom over the Nexon, however, the sloping roofline will result in a lower headroom at the back. However, the added length gives it 118 litres of extra boot space over Nexon (382 litres).
Which cars, SUVs will the Tata Curvv rival?
The Tata Curvv will have no direct rivals upon launch. It will serve as an alternative to midsize SUVs such as Hyundai Creta, Kia Seltos, Maruti Grand Vitara, Honda Elevate, Toyota Hyryder, Skoda Kushaq and Volkswagen Taigun. It will soon be joined by the upcoming Citroen Basalt coupe-SUV in the segment. The Curvv EV will compete against the upcoming Hyundai Creta EV and Maruti eVX.
How much will the Tata Curvv and Curvv EV cost?
The Tata Curvv EV is expected to go on sale first, with the launch set to take place on August 7, 2024. It is expected to be priced from around Rs 20 lakh. This will position it above the Nexon EV and below the upcoming Harrier EV. The ICE version will launch some time after the EV, and could be priced from Rs 10 lakh-11 lakh onwards.
