Tata Curvv SUV may offer CNG option, expanding fuel choices further

CNG option considered

Tata Motors is actively considering a CNG variant for the Curvv, designing the SUV to accommodate this eco-friendly alternative.

Unique body style

Tata Curvv’s non-traditional coupe-SUV design aims to capture attention and market share in the midsize SUV segment.

Diverse powertrain options

Curvv offers a broad selection of powertrains, including two EVs, two petrol engines, and a diesel, catering to diverse customer needs.

Showcased at Bharat Mobility

Tata showcased the CNG concept with the Nexon at the Bharat Mobility Show, hinting at similar future offerings for the Curvv.

Early 2025 launch expected

The CNG variant of the Nexon is expected by early 2025, potentially paving the way for a similar option in the Curvv lineup.

Premium CNG strategy

Tata continues to premiumise CNG options in higher segment models, reflecting a growing market interest in CNG vehicles.

Influence of competition

Competing models like the Grand Vitara and Hyryder already offer CNG options, pushing Tata to consider a CNG variant.

Confidence in Curvv EV

Tata expects the Curvv EV to account for up to 30% of total sales, driven by its price parity with petrol-automatics and impressive range.

Competitive ICE pricing

The ICE versions of the Curvv, launching on September 2, are anticipated to have competitive pricing, aiming to disrupt the midsize SUV market.

Four fuel options

If launched, the Curvv would be the only midsize SUV to offer four fuel options—petrol, diesel, electric, and CNG—broadening its appeal.
