Tata Curvv
The brand new Tata Curvv is completely a new segment in the company, its basically based on the Tata Nexon’s platform but is bigger and bolder than it.
The new Tata Curvv will be a ‘fill-in-the-blank’ between the Tata Harrier and the Tata Nexon, as there is a big size difference between the 2 cars, one is too big and the other one is a mid-size Compact SUV, Tata Curvv will be bigger than the Nexon and smaller than the Harrier fulfilling the size gap and will be a completely new concept.
The Tata Curvv competes with the Hyundai Creta, Kia Seltos, Skoda Kushaq, Volkswagen Tiagun, Suzuki Grand Vitara, MG Astor and the likes.
The price of the upcoming Tata car is expected to be between 12-24 Lakhs INR (On Road Price).
This car is definitely going to be a game changer for the company as it is a completely new segment. The design of Tata Curvv is based on Tata’s new design language which the new Nexon and Safari are getting. From the side profile, the car looks real sporty with a sloping roof which can also be considered as a ‘Sports Coupe’ design language.
Talking about other specs, it will get 17-inch wheels, with a panoramic sunroof, sharkfin antenna, connected tail lamps, a big-size spoiler, and also a digital instrumental cluster. The touchscreen infotainment system is expected to be between 10-12 inches with Android auto and Apple carplay (Developed by JBL) which takes us to the next big thing that’s you’ll get speakers from JBL too. And here comes the surprise that it will also get the ADAS features in terms of safety with expected 6 airbags plus ventilated seats.
A full complete in-depth overview of the car with more detailed information is soon going to be posted so stay connected for engine options and more.
