Tata CURVV has introduced the concept of second generation electric vehicles. Although the car gets a very straight line design, the name comes from the sloping roof line which gives it an SUV-Coupe look. The new SUV is based on the second generation platform. It will be the first Tata car to hit the market first as an EV and later as an internal combustion engine (ICE).
Tata Motors has not disclosed changes to the platform. However, it does have more space for batteries, which adds range to the car. Tata Motors also did not reveal the range of the car. However, it did indicate that the car would have a claimed range of 400 to 500 kilometers.
