Tata Curvv: Powertrain

Tata Motors is yet to confirm the powertrain specs of the Curvv EV and its ICE counterpart, but industry reports indicate that the former will come with an option between two battery packs with an estimated range of roughly 500 kilometres. It will be built on the Acti.ev platform. The latter, on the other hand, is expected to be available with two engine options: the well-known 1.5-litre diesel engine from Nexon (114bhp/260Nm) and a new 1.2-litre T-GDi turbo-petrol (123bhp/225Nm). A dual-clutch automatic transmission (DCT) and a 6-speed manual gearbox could be potential gearbox choices.
