The Curvv EV's coupe-SUV design isn't just for looks - it's highly functional for aerodynamics. Tata engineers have focused on several key areas:- Slippery front end with active grille shutters that close at high speeds- Flush door handles that retract to reduce drag- Smooth underbody panels to manage airflow underneath- Rear spoiler that manages airflow separationThe result is a drag coefficient of around 0.29 Cd, which is excellent for an SUV. For comparison, most SUVs are in the 0.32-0.35 range. This aerodynamic efficiency directly translates to 15-20 km additional range at highway speeds compared to a less aerodynamic design.

As someone who's test-driven most EVs in India, the Curvv EV stands out because it doesn't feel like a compromise. Many current EVs feel like they're missing something compared to ICE vehicles, but the Curvv seems to offer everything you'd want: Proper SUV presence without the fuel bills Premium interior that matches ₹30-40 lakh cars Practical range for both city and highway use Strong performance with instant electric torque Future-proof tech like OTA updatesIt hits that sweet spot of being premium but not unaffordable*. Plus, Tata's understanding of Indian road conditions and customer preferences gives them an edge over imported brands.

Having followed Tata's design journey, the Curvv EV is their most confident design yet. While cars like Nexon and Harrier have strong character lines and muscular proportions, the Curvv goes for sophisticated simplicity. The surfaces are cleaner, the proportions are more balanced, and the details are more refined. The Y-shaped LED signature in the headlights is becoming a Tata trademark, but on the Curvv it's executed with more finesse. Inside, the landscape-oriented touchscreen and minimalist dashboard are a departure from the busier interiors of current Tata models. This feels like Tata design growing up and aiming for international standards.
