The Tata Curvv, the upcoming coupe SUV from the indigenous automaker, recently broke cover at an event in the UK. We have also seen the first real-world images of the model, followed by its official interior sketches. Interestingly, the Curvv will be offered with four engine options including a 1.2L turbo petrol (120bhp), a 1.2L direct-injection (125bhp), a 1.5L diesel (115bhp), and an electric powertrain. The top-end automatic variant will get paddle shifters. Specifications of the Curvv EV are yet to be revealed, though it’s reported to offer a range of around 450 km – 500 km on a full charge.
The official interior sketches confirm the presence of a large 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment system, a digital driver’s display, and a two-spoke steering wheel with an illuminated logo. You can also notice a stubby gear selector lever with an electronic parking brake, central AC vents, and a touch-based HVAC panel.
