The Curvv ICE is available with three engine options – a 1.2-litre direct injection turbocharged petrol (Hyperion), a 1.2-litre turbo-petrol engine (Revotron), and a 1.5-litre diesel unit. The first is a new engine, producing 123bhp at 5,000rpm and 225Nm between 1,700rpm and 3,500rpm. The other two are already offered with the Nexon, with power and torque outputs of 118bhp and 170Nm (turbo-petrol) and 116bhp and 260Nm (Diesel). The transmission options include a 6-speed manual unit and a 7-speed dual-clutch unit.

Tata Curvv ICE: Interior and Features 

Inside, the ICE variant gets a unique dual-tone burgundy colour scheme. It comes equipped with a 10.25-inch digital driver's display, a 12.3-inch infotainment screen with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, two-step recliner rear seats with 60:40 split functionality, a panoramic sunroof, ventilated front seats, a wireless phone charger, a 6-way-powered adjustable driver seat, and a 9-speaker sound system.

One of the standout features of Tata's new SUV models – a linked LED DRL strip with a welcome and goodbye function – is also available with the Tata Curvv ICE. The car's grille has chrome studs, just like the Harrier's, while the headlights and fog lights are positioned vertically. Moreover, the front bumper has parking sensors and a camera. On the sides, you can see flush door handles – a first for a Tata car – and new 18-inch dual-tone alloy wheels with a flower-petal design. The rear portion features connected taillights, a bumper with a silver-finished faux skid plate, an elevated boot lid, and a chrome-finished Curvv logo.
