This is probably the most common question for any potential EV buyer! The cost isn't fixed as it depends entirely on your state's electricity tariff. But here's how you can calculate it easily. The Tata Curvv EV is expected to have a battery size of around 45 kWh. Let's say your domestic electricity rate is ₹8 per unit (kWh). The formula is simple: Battery Size x Cost per Unit.So, 45 kWh x ₹8/unit = ₹360 for a full charge.Remember, this is an estimate. Your actual cost could be:- Lower (around ₹270) if you have cheaper off-peak tariffs or live in a state with lower rates.- Higher (up to ₹450 or more) if your per-unit cost is ₹10 or above.Charging at home is definitely the most economical way to go!

Quick scoop on charging the Tata Curvv EV at Tata Power: Their network's grown huge by 2025. For 55 kWh, home-like AC rates are ₹9-13/kWh (₹495-715 full), but fast DC is ₹16-20 (₹880-1100). My recent fill in Chennai was ₹12.50/kWh, ₹687 total—took 45 mins. Check for loyalty programs; Tata owners get rebates. Super convenient with 620+ cities covered. If you're new to EVs, start with slower ones to save bucks.

Hey, on Tata Power charging costs for the Curvv EV—it's pretty reasonable for public. 55 kWh battery at their EZ Charge stations: AC is ₹10-12/kWh typically, so ₹550-660 to full. DC ultra-fast jumps to ₹15-18, around ₹825-990. Latest in 2025, some cities have tiered pricing based on load. I charged in Delhi for ₹11.20/kWh, total ₹616—quick 30 mins for 80%. Download their app for maps and promos; often bundle with cafe stops. Way better than waiting at petrol pumps!

The charging rates at public stations, including the Tata Power EZ Charge network, are a bit of a moving target, so the best way to get the exact rate is to check the Tata Power EZ Charge app right before you plug in. Generally, the DC fast charging rate (which the Curvv EV is capable of utilizing to charge from $\text{10%}$ to $\text{80%}$ in around $\text{40-60}$ minutes, depending on the charger's $\text{kW}$ rating) sits between $\text{₹ 18.99/kWh}$ and $\text{₹ 24/kWh}$. The higher side is usually for very high-speed chargers ($\text{120 kW}$ and above). Remember, this is the energy cost. The total session cost might also include a small parking or idle fee if you leave your car plugged in after it's fully charged, so be mindful of that to avoid extra charges!

Until the final brochure comes out, we can only speculate. But if you look at Tata’s EV lineup trend, they stick to safe colors (white, grey) and throw in one or two funky ones for EVs (like Teal Blue on Nexon EV). So my bet: five color options, one special EV-only shade.
