Tata
Motors
revealed
the
internal
combustion
engine
version
of
the
Curvv
concept
at
Auto
Expo
2023.
The
Tata
Curvv
was
revealed
as
an
EV
last
year.
The
Tata
Curvv
ICE
will
hit
our
streets
next
year
and
is
expected
to
feature
the
new
1.2-litre
turbocharged
petrol
engine
that
Tata
showcased
at
Auto
Expo
2023.
Tata
Curvv
ICE
Design
&
Features
The
Tata
Curvv
showcased
at
Auto
Expo
is
slightly
different
in
terms
of
its
looks
compared
to
the
concept
EV
that
was
unveiled
last
year.
The
updated
design
gives
the
Curvv
a
more
production-ready
look
and
we
expect
Tata
to
retain
most
of
the
details
seen
on
the
Auto
Expo
concept
vehicle
in
the
production
version
of
the
coupe-SUV.
At
the
front,
the
Tata
Curvv
ICE
sports
the
new
Signature
Tata
look
with
the
LED
DRLs
connected
together
by
a
lightbar
that
stretches
across
the
front
of
the
car.
The
Tata
badge
sits
directly
underneath
the
lightbar
while
the
headlights
can
be
found
in
their
own
enclosure
on
either
edge
of
the
front
bumper.
The
front
bumper
also
features
a
large
air
dam
to
help
with
the
extra
cooling
needed
for
an
ICE-powered
vehicle.
When
viewed
from
the
sides,
the
Tata
Curvv
retains
the
sloping
coupe
roof
that
made
last
year’s
EV
such
an
attention
grabber.
The
Curvv
rides
on
a
snazzy
set
of
alloy
wheels
that
look
like
they
could
make
it
into
production
when
the
SUV
hits
the
market
in
2024.
The
plastic
cladding
on
the
wheelarches
gives
the
Curvv
a
more
rugged
and
tough
look.
At
the
rear,
the
sloping
roofline
merges
smoothly
with
the
rear
opening.
The
boot
lid
section
features
full-width
LED
taillights
that
end
up
at
a
sharp
angle
that
contours
to
the
sides
of
the
Curvv.
Also
seen
are
two
small
winglets
that
are
integrated
into
the
roofline
of
the
Curvv
along
with
a
large
faux
bash
plate
lower
down
on
the
rear
bumper.
The
interiors
of
the
Curvv
are
quite
minimalist
with
a
layered
dash
and
four
seats
–
the
rear
captain
seats
are
expected
to
be
turned
into
a
bench
for
the
production
car.
Also
seen
is
a
new
steering
wheel
with
a
lit-up
Tata
logo
that
is
expected
to
come
in
all
new
models
following
the
Curvv.
Behind
the
steering
wheel
sits
a
widescreen
driver’s
display
for
the
instrumentation
while
another
unit,
this
time
a
touchscreen
sits
atop
the
centre
of
the
dash
for
all
the
infotainment
requirements.

Details
Tata
Motors
showcased
two
new
turbocharged
petrol
engines
at
Auto
Expo
with
the
smaller
displacing
1.2-litres
and
the
larger
1.5-litres.
The
ICE
version
of
the
Curvv
will
sport
the
smaller
of
two
direct
injection
engines
that
pushes
out
123bhp
and
225Nm
of
peak
torque.
The
engine
is
expected
to
be
offered
with
both
manual
and
automatic
transmission
options.
Thoughts
About
The
Tata
Curvv
ICE
The
ICE
version
of
the
Tata
Curvv
is
the
firm’s
long-awaited
answer
to
the
Hyundai
Creta
and
the
newly
launched
Maruti
Suzuki
Grand
Vitara
and
Toyota
Hyryder.
While
Tata
doesn’t
seem
to
be
going
down
the
hybrid
route
with
Curvv
ICE,
the
SUV’s
unique
styling
should
attract
hordes
of
customers
into
the
showrooms
when
it
arrives
in
2024
and
even
more
when
the
EV
version
follows
it
onto
the
streets.
