autoX Awards 2024: These days, Tata vehicles are a popular choice for those looking for a safe and stylish car, and the Curvv, in its internal combustion engine avatar, is no exception. With a futuristic, clean design, the Curvv immediately grabs attention, thanks to its sleek LED light bar and DRLs at the front. A similar lighting element embellishes the rear end of the Curvv, which together with the sloping roofline creates a look that seems to be straight out of a science fiction film. Staying true to Tata’s reputation, the Curvv has also achieved a five-star rating in the Bharat NCAP safety assessment.

Inside, the Curvv shares much of its layout and features with the EV variant. It’s loaded with features like a large touchscreen, a JBL sound system, and ventilated seats. However, as with the EV, the sloping roof affects the rear headroom. However, thankfully, the seats are remarkably comfortable, and the boot is quite spacious. The driver and front passenger, in particular, will find plenty of room and enjoy a very comfortable experience. Speaking of comfort, the suspension is expertly tuned for Indian road conditions. The Curvv also handles well around corners, and the new 1.5-litre turbo-petrol engine is both lively and surprisingly refined for a three-pot motor.

Tata has also positioned the Curvv competitively in terms of price, making it an attractive option for those who found the EV version of the Curvv a bit too expensive. However, the diesel engine is somewhat lacking in terms of refinement; while it offers ample power, it doesn’t quite match the vehicle’s suave design. The manual gearbox has long and clunky throws, which can feel cumbersome during quick shifts. Even the 7-speed DCT has noticeably slow shifts, something that did not sit well with the jury members during the test. Additionally, the quality issues often seen in Tata vehicles are also present here, which might give some buyers a reason to reconsider.
