- The Curvv Series X starts at an attractive Rs 10 lakh (ex-showroom).

- Top-spec trims feature Level 2 ADAS and a 12.3-inch digital cluster.
Two years after introducing its radical coupe-SUV concept, Tata Motors has officially launched the Curvv Series X. Designed to address recent sales fluctuations, this update focuses on a much stronger value proposition, ensuring that even the entry-level models feel premium and well-equipped.
Pricing and Revised Variant Lineup
With the introduction of the Series X, Tata has simplified the Curvv's complexity by reducing the number of variants from eight down to six. The pricing strategy is aggressive, with the Smart X turbo-petrol MT variant starting at Rs 10 lakh. Notably, the high-performance T-GDI powertrain is now exclusively paired with the 7-speed DCA (automatic) transmission, streamlining the choice for performance-oriented buyers.
| Variant | Engine Type | Estimated Price (₹) |
|---|---|---|
| Smart X | 1.2L Turbo-Petrol (MT) | 10.00 Lakh |
| Pure X | 1.2L Turbo-Petrol (MT/DCA) | 11.00 - 12.30 Lakh |
| Creative X Plus | 1.2L Turbo-Petrol (DCA) | 12.91 - 14.21 Lakh |
| Accomplished X Plus | 1.5L Diesel (DCA) | 18.50 - 18.75 Lakh |
Why This Matters
BozokMedia analysis shows that Tata Motors is shifting its strategy from pure novelty to market dominance. By enhancing the equipment levels of lower-spec variants, Tata is directly challenging competitors like the Citroen Basalt and traditional SUVs like the Hyundai Creta and Kia Seltos. This move bridges the gap between 'entry-level' and 'premium' segments.
Tata's new approach prioritizes practical value and feature density over mere aesthetic differentiation.
Externally, the Curvv Series X retains its signature sloping roofline and aggressive stance. However, the color palette has been refined to five sophisticated hues: Carbon Black, Nitro Crimson, Opera Blue, Pure Grey, and Pristine White. The base variant now also benefits from 17-inch steel wheels with stylized covers, up from the previous 16-inch setup.
Interior Upgrades and Passenger Comfort
Inside, the cabin receives a significant aesthetic lift with the introduction of Oyster White leatherette upholstery from the Pure X Plus variant onwards. This choice creates a brighter, more spacious atmosphere. Furthermore, Tata engineers have optimized rear passenger comfort by scooping out the front seats, providing an additional 10mm of legroom, while the rear bench has been moved 20mm rearward.
Technology remains a centerpiece. The Pure X Plus trim offers a 10.25-inch infotainment system, wireless smartphone integration, and a panoramic sunroof. For those opting for the top-tier Accomplished X Plus, the experience includes a 12.3-inch digital cluster, Level 2 ADAS, and a powered tailgate.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. Is a diesel engine available in the Curvv Series X?
Yes, a 1.5-litre diesel engine is available with both Manual and DCA transmission options.
2. Can I get the all-black look?
Absolutely. From the Pure X Plus variant upwards, you can opt for the #DARK Edition for an additional Rs 25,000.
Editor Comment
Tata's pivot toward feature-heavy mid-range variants is a masterstroke to combat the stagnation in sales. By making the 'affordable' Curvv feel 'premium,' they are setting a high bar for the compact SUV segment.
