Tata Curvv

The Curvv is anticipated to go on sale soon, although an official launch date has not yet been disclosed. The EV variant will arrive followed by the ICE version. The former (EV) is expected to be available in both single and dual-motor versions, with front- or all-wheel drive options and a range of 400 to 500 kilometres on a single charge. On the other hand, the latter (ICE version) will likely have the same powertrain choices as the Nexon, which consist of a 1.5-litre, 4-cylinder diesel engine (113bhp/260Nm) and a 1.2-litre 3-cylinder turbocharged petrol unit (18bhp/170Nm). The transmission options comprise a 6-speed AMT, a 6-speed manual, and a 7-speed DCT. In terms of price, the petrol-powered Curvv may cost between Rs 10 lakh and Rs 11 lakh, while the EV variant could fetch a higher price tag of Rs 20 lakh.
