Tata Motors has been testing the Tata Curve SUV for quite some time now, and spy images from the testing phase have emerged. The expected prices of this SUV have been listed on the website v3cars. According to them, the ex-showroom price for the 1.2-liter turbo petrol-manual variant of the 2024 Curve could start at 11 lakhs. The spy images reveal that the vehicle features a coupe-like silhouette for the body shell, indicating a sleek and stylish design.
The Curve SUV has a sloping roof, and the rear quarter glass is not visible, giving it a notchback-like appearance similar to the model that was showcased at the Auto Expo. The design of the Curve incorporates elements from the recent SUV launched by Tata Motors, such as the front LED strip, vertical headlamp positioning, and an extended architectural bonnet.
The interior of the car is expected to feature a two-spoke steering wheel, a new infotainment screen, and a digital driver display, inspired by the Curve concept model. It may also include a panoramic sunroof, multiple airbags, and various connected features such as ADAS.
The spy shots of the car also reveal that it may feature a new turbo-petrol engine, a CNG powertrain, or even an EV. Tata Motors has previously used fake exhaust pipes in their EV testing models, indicating that an electric version of the Curve SUV might be launched first, followed by an ICE powertrain. However, the exact launch date is currently unknown.
Tata Motors Passenger Vehicles Limited and Tata Passenger Electric Mobility Limited Managing Director Shailesh Chandra had previously mentioned that it may take some time for the launch of the new petrol engine. The official design sketch released by Tata Motors also featured a CNG button, hinting that a CNG powertrain may be included in the Curve. The Curve will compete with popular SUVs like the Hyundai Creta, Kia Seltos, Maruti Grand Vitara, MG Astor, Skoda Kushaq, and Volkswagen Taigun.
