Tata Curvv : Spotting a Tata Curvv on the road still feels fresh, even months after its launch.
That sloping roofline and coupe-SUV stance – 4,308 mm long with a 2,560 mm wheelbase – give it a sporty edge over boxy rivals like the Hyundai Creta or Maruti Grand Vitara.
The 2026 update amps it up with gloss black grille accents replacing silver ones, sharper LED headlights, and darker alloy wheels up to 18 inches that hug the curves just right.
From the rear, connected taillamps and refreshed bumpers add drama, while new paint finishes pop under city lights.
I drove one through Mumbai traffic, and heads turned – it’s got that futuristic vibe without trying too hard.
Ground clearance at 208 mm handles speed bumps and monsoons effortlessly, boot space stays generous at 500 litres.
Cabin Upgrades for Everyday Comfort
Inside, the 2026 Curvv feels like a step up in premiumness.
The big refresh brings light beige upholstery swapping out maroon, dual-zone climate control, rear sunshades, and ventilated second-row seats in select trims.
The 12.3-inch touchscreen with wireless Android Auto/Apple CarPlay, JBL audio, and a voice-activated panoramic sunroof make it tech heaven.
Seating for five is spacious, with rear armrest cup holders and illuminated steering wheel adding thoughtful touches.
Paddle shifters on the DCT keep things engaging, and the ride quality – thanks to tuned suspension – soaks up potholes smoothly.
Owners love the airy feel; one said it transformed their daily commute into something enjoyable.
Engines Tuned for Fun and Efficiency
Power options keep evolving. The 1.2-litre turbo-petrol comes in 118 bhp/170 Nm or hotter 123 bhp/225 Nm tunes, paired with 6-speed manual or 7-speed DCT – hitting 0-100 km/h around 10 seconds in the peppier version.
Diesel’s 1.5-litre 116 bhp/260 Nm unit shines for torque, delivering 18-19 kmpl real-world with manual or DCT.
CNG is incoming with dual cylinders to save boot space, and the Curvv EV (separate but related) offers zippy 0-100 in 9.6 seconds.
Petrol averages 17 kmpl in mixed use; diesel edges ahead for highways. Traction control and drive modes make it versatile for city sprints or weekend getaways.
Safety and Tech That Lead the Pack
Tata’s safety obsession pays off – 5-star Bharat NCAP with 29.5/32 adult protection and 43.66/49 child scores, six airbags standard, ESC,
And Level 2 ADAS like adaptive cruise, lane keep, and blind-spot alerts. 360-camera, TPMS, and three-point belts everywhere build confidence.
The iRA connected car tech lets you summon it via app, while ventilated seats and sunshades handle India’s heat.
Users call it “bulletproof safe,” praising crash test results over rivals. No wonder waiting periods stretch to 12 weeks.
