Tata Motors recently took the covers off the all-new Curvv EV concept that previews its future midsize SUV in India. With this concept, the company aims to showcase its next-gen electric architecture and design language.
Here are key facts about the Curvv EV concept:

The Curvv EV concept showcases the ‘Digital’ Design language that will eventually make its way to future Tata SUVs. Highlights of the new styling include a curved roofline and a notchback-styled boot. These elements, which are similar to the BMW X4, accentuate the coupe-SUV’s looks. Additional highlights of the Curvv include a full-width LED light bar and triangular air vents.
2. 2022 Tata Curvv EV concept: EV architecture
Being an EV, the Curvv concept showcases Tata’s new Generation-2 architecture, which, though based on the modified Generation-1 architecture found on the Nexon EV, has been designed to accommodate multiple body styles and powertrain options.

Tata Motors has not yet provided details for the battery pack of the Curvv EV concept. However, the company did mention that the Curvv will likely feature a battery pack that's larger than the Nexon’s 30.2kWh battery. This will allow the production-spec version of the coupe-SUV to achieve a claimed range of 400-500km.

While the production-ready version of the Tata Curvv will be launched as an EV, it will be followed up by an internal combustion engine (ICE) version.

With a launch expected within the next two years, the production-spec Curvv will compete with rivals like the Kia Seltos, Skoda Kushaq, Volkswagen Taigun and Hyundai Creta.
