Tata Curvv Makes Debut at Bharat Mobility Global Expo 2024
The highly anticipated Tata Curvv has made its debut on the first day of the Bharat Mobility Global Expo 2024. Expected to hit the market in the coming months, this SUV is set to offer a variety of powertrain options, reinforcing Tata Motors’ commitment to innovation.
Key Features of Tata Curvv:
- Midsize Segment SUV Rivalry: Positioned to take on midsize SUVs, the Curvv is poised to compete with vehicles such as the Creta, Seltos, Grand Vitara, and the Hyryder.
- Diverse Powertrain Options: Tata Curvv is expected to come with at least three powertrain options, catering to the diverse preferences of consumers.
- Stylish Design Elements: The SUV boasts a distinctive design with a sharp fascia and a unique coupe-like roofline, setting it apart from more conventional SUVs in its segment.
Design Details:
The Curvv’s design, showcased at the event, maintains the appeal seen at the Auto Expo last year, with subtle tweaks. Notable features include an extended LED light bar reminiscent of the Nexon facelift, a grille with a mix of piano black and body color finish, and a redesigned front bumper with headlamp and foglamp housings akin to the Harrier and Safari facelifts.
The side profile showcases innovative features like wing mirrors mounted on the doors and flush door handles—a first for Tata vehicles. The rear of the Curvv exhibits a dark-tinted LED light bar, production-ready tail-lamps, and vertically positioned air inlets on the bumper.
