Tata Curvv with ICE engine revealed at Auto Expo 2023

One of the many new cars that Tata Motors India unveiled at the Auto Expo 2023 was the Curvv SUV concept. However, this is the first time the brand has showcased this concept. Tata Motors first revealed the Curvv SUV concept in mid-2022. 

When first revealed, it came with an EV powertrain. However, the one that the brand displayed this time, was equipped with an ICE engine. The model showcased at the Auto Expo 2023, is a close-to-production vehicle, claims Tata Motors. Thus, the model will likely go on sale next year.

Tata Curvv SUV Concept – Design Highlights

One of the first differences compared to the model displayed last year is the colour. The model displayed at the event came with a red exterior colour shade, unlike the blue of the previous one. According to Tata Motors, the Curvv merges the toughness and durability of an SUV with a sporty silhouette of a coupe. The brand further adds that this allows it to strike the perfect balance between elegance, performance and practicality.

At the front, the Curvv gets a slim upper LED DRL and triangular headlamps which also display an animated welcome feature as one approaches the SUV. The front lower bumper also sports a grooved pattern that Tata says gives a feeling of precision.

At the sides, the Curvv features a raised ride height, tough cladding and large offset front and rear fenders. The Curvv also features a floating C-pillar that allows for airflow from the side of the body to pass underneath the pillar and exit at the side of the rear screen. The wheels also have an aerodynamic design and diamond-cut finished surfaces. At the rear, the Curvv features signature LED lamps that surround the haunch. It also features a horizontal light bar that accentuates the width of the SUV further. The rear of the SUV also features a split spoiler.

Tata Curvv SUV Concept – Interior Highlights

On the inside, Tata has tried to maximise the space of the vehicle as much as it can. Further accentuating the sense of space is the large panoramic glass roof. The brand has also focused on providing an uncluttered, yet modern interior that also integrates state-of-the-art technologies. Also, the Curvv SUV concept features a multi-layered dashboard and multiple screens for the infotainment and instrument cluster. 

Tata Curvv SUV Concept – Technical Specifications

When Tata Motors first showcased the Curvv concept, it previewed the brand’s Generation 2 EV architecture. The Generation 2 EV architecture will spawn multiple models with different powertrain configurations, as revealed before. However, the Curvv SUV concept that Tata displayed at the Auto Expo 2023 featured an Internal Combustion Engine. Tata also revealed that the Curvv will come with a 1.2-litre Turbo GDi petrol engine. The new engine also made its debut at the Auto Expo 2023 and produces 125 PS of power and 225 Nm of torque. The engine also operates on E20 fuel and complies with Bharat Stage 6 Phase 2 norms.
