2024 Tata Curvv EV Vs Nexon EV: Family Feud Comparison

The Nexon EV is one of the most popular electric SUV choices among the Indian buyers. That being said, Tata has now gone a step further and launched the Curvv EV with a SUV-coupe design and some other additions over the Nexon EV, including more features and additional range. 

However, these additions come at a steeper price and in this article we are going to find out if it’s worth paying the premium. 

Price

The Nexon EV’s base variant undercuts the Curvv EV’s base variant by Rs 3 lakh, while there is a difference of Rs 2.7 lakh between the top-spec variants. 

So, for a premium of around Rs 3 lakh, let’s see what the Curvv EV has to offer additionally over the Nexon EV.

Dimensions 

As seen above, the Curvv EV is clearly the longer and taller out of the two. The Curvv EV offers a 62 mm longer wheelbase than the Nexon EV, but to know how that extra space is utilized and if the rear seats have enough space, you should head over to our in-depth review of the Curvv EV. That being said, the Curvv EV also gets a significantly larger boot space! 

Features 

Both Curvv EV and Nexon EV have a similar cabin, with the same dashboard design and layout. However, in the Curvv EV, you get an ambient light strip that runs across the dash and a four-spoke steering wheel borrowed from the larger Harrier SUV. Let’s take a look at the features list: 

The Curvv EV has a clear advantage here thanks to the added niceties and comforts, which includes a panoramic sunroof, powered front seats and powered tailgate. The Curvv also boasts Level-2 autonomous driving features like adaptive cruise control and blind spot monitor. That being said, the Nexon EV has no shortage of features, but just lags a bit behind its new sibling. 

Powertrain 

From the table above, we can conclude that the Curvv EV should be your pick if you want a vehicle with a longer range, more power and slightly better performance. That being said, the Nexon EV has enough performance for all your commuting needs and more as well.

Do note that the Curvv EV is based on Tata’s Acti.ev platform, which is a dedicated platform for its new EVs. The Nexon EV on the other hand, is based on the same platform as its ICE counterpart.

Verdict

Both Tata Curvv EV and Nexon EV are well-equipped SUVs in terms of features, and offer a good package if you are in the market for a compact EV. However, the Curvv EV would be our pick here, since it gets extra features adding to the premiumness factor, larger battery packs which means you will have to worry less about the range during longer journeys and also a much more attractive-looking SUV, thanks to its sloping roofline and coupe design. It would be safe to say that the Curvv EV is worth the premium you pay. But if you can’t afford the premium, you won’t really go wrong with the Nexon EV as well.
