What is the top speed of the Tata Curvv EV?

Answer # 1 #

I attended a pre-launch event where a Tata engineer mentioned they're targeting 165 km/h top speed for the Curvv EV. This puts it in the same ballpark as the MG ZS EV (163 km/h) and slightly above the Nexon EV (160 km/h). What's more impressive is the mid-range acceleration - apparently it can do 80-120 km/h in just 4.2 seconds, which is what really matters for highway overtaking. The speed limitation is more about battery conservation than capability - the motor could technically go faster, but it would murder the range!

While Tata hasn't released official figures yet, based on the motor specifications and similar Tata EVs, the Curvv EV is expected to have a top speed of around 160-170 km/h. This is electronically limited, as most EVs are, to preserve battery life and ensure safety. The acceleration should be quite brisk though - expect 0-100 km/h in under 8 seconds thanks to the instant torque characteristic of electric motors. The top speed is more than adequate for Indian conditions where even highways rarely allow speeds above 120 km/h legally.
