If you parked the new Tata Curvv in a busy lot, two things would happen. First, people would glance over because it sits tall like a regular SUV. Then they would look again, wondering why that tall vehicle also has a sloping, sporty roof. That double-take is exactly what Tata’s design team wanted. The Curvv blends the sturdy feel of an SUV with the smooth lines of a coupé, and it does so with a handful of smart details that make everyday use feel special. Let’s take a detailed look at the car to see how it all comes together.
Dynamic Light Signatures
Walk toward the Tata Curvv with the key in your pocket, and the front lights put on a quick welcome show. A slim strip of sequential LED daytime-running lamps sweeps across the nose, making the car look awake before you even open the door.
Directly below are bi-function full LED headlamps: one neat unit for both low and high beams, so the front stays clean instead of cluttered with extra bulbs. Higher trims add LED projector headlamps for an even brighter punch on rural roads. Down by the body-coloured bumper, LED fog lamps sit tucked away until you need them.
Little touches matter, too. The wiper blades on top trims use a stylised arm that hugs the glass when resting. It seems minor, yet it keeps the windscreen view tidy and helps air slide over the car instead of catching on bulky hardware.
Side Profile: Where the SUV Meets the Coupé
Move to the side, and the Curvv’s “coupe-SUV” tag makes complete sense. The roof starts at full SUV height over the driver, then glides downward in one smooth arc toward the tail. Because the line is so clean, the car looks like it’s leaning into the next corner even while parked. A contrast-coloured roof makes that shape pop, and a shark-fin antenna with built-in GPS finishes off the top without drawing too much attention.
Door handles normally break up a side panel, but here, they sit flush until you reach for them. A small welcome light guides your hand, the handle slides out, and once you’re inside, it folds back in, restoring the uninterrupted sheet metal. Right by the front edge of each door sits a subtle brand mascot, small enough to stay classy but big enough that people will notice.
The 18-inch alloy wheels with aero inserts fill the arches nicely. The inserts aren’t just for show; they guide air along the body and can squeeze out a little more efficiency. Piano-black outside mirrors with built-in turn indicators match the gloss found on the wheels and tail light bar, tying the side view together.
Goodbye Animation and Aero-Tuned Finishes
Follow that roof to the rear and you’ll see it ends in an integrated spoiler, not a tacked-on wing. The metal itself kicks up, smoothing airflow while adding a sporty edge. A single LED light bar runs the full width, lighting up in one graceful piece when you press the brakes. Lock the car and it performs a short, tidy goodbye animation that mirrors the welcome up front.
Below, the bumper stays body-coloured instead of switching to chunky black plastic. It gives the back end a cleaner, more premium look. The flush tailgate and that slim spoiler also hint that someone paid attention to aerodynamics, not just style.
Sunroof, Roof Colour, and Mood Lighting
Plenty of cars offer panoramic glass, but the Curvv’s roof panel opens with a simple voice command. Ask, and it slides back to flood the cabin with light. Soft mood lighting around the frame adds a relaxed glow during nighttime drives, making the interior feel almost lounge-like even before you start the engine. Because the roof is finished in a contrasting shade, you still get the bold two-tone look when the glass is closed.
Under all this design work sits Tata’s toughened ATLAS platform. A rigid base lets the stylists press sharper creases into the body without worrying about long-term strength. It also contributes to ride comfort, letting the suspension deal with potholes while the cabin stays hushed.
Safety and Tech
Good looks aren’t much use without peace of mind. The Curvv scores a full five stars in BNCAP crash tests and fits six airbags as standard. Level 2 ADAS keeps watch with features like lane keep assist and forward collision warning alerts, while Advanced ESP steps in if a quick swerve gets messy.
Inside, a 31.24-cm (12.3-inch) HARMAN touchscreen handles navigation, music, and Tata’s iRA connected-car services. You can check vehicle health, locate the SUV in a crowded lot, or send directions from your phone. Three drive modes, Eco, City, and Sport, adjust throttle feel and steering weight, matching the mood you’re in.
Final Thoughts
The Tata Curvv proves you don’t have to choose between practicality and personality. It stands tall enough for rough roads, yet its smooth lines and thoughtful lighting give it the charm of something far sportier. If you’re after an everyday vehicle that feels special every time you unlock it, the Curvv’s blend of rugged spirit and coupé grace might be just right for your driveway.
