Born of powerful philosophy, form and function, Tata Motors has unveiled its first SUV Coupe called the Curvv post its display at the Bharat Mobility Expo in Delhi early this year. Exhibiting the new-age SUV typology by artfully blending the toughness and practicality of an SUV with the elegance and sporty silhouette of a coupé, the vehicle will be launched formally on 7 August 2024. It will follow the company’s multi-powertrain strategy by being available with an electric powertrain as well as an ICE. 

The ICE line up expected to follow the launch of the electric line up on 7 August 2024, the Curvv – styled to look stunning and unlike a conventional mid-size SUV – highlights a ‘wedge shape’ design language that supports a coupe-like silhouette. The roof line seamlessly flows from the front to slope sharply at the rear. It reflects dynamic styling language that is also disruptive. 

To be offered with a petrol as well as a diesel powertrain under the multi-powertrain strategy as far as the ICE line up is concerned, the Curvv is helped by the raised ride height (ground clearance is 200 mm roughly), tough cladding and dynamic proportions in its form and function. 

The EV line up will be offered with the company’s high voltage architecture. The details of it will be revealed at the formal launch next month and is likely to share some of the key components and electronics with the Nexon EV. 

The ICE line is expected to share its petrol and electric powertrain with that of the Nexon as well. Particularly interesting would be the 125hp 1.2-litre turbocharged direct injection petrol engine with the power being routed to the front wheels via an option of a manual and auto transmission.   

To debut in two attractive colours (Virtual Sunrise in EV and Gold Essence in ICE), the Curvv is practically designed for the Indian family that loves going out for long drives, mentioned a Tata Motors source. The dynamic and disruptive exterior styling is met by modern and uncluttered interiors that combine the functionalities of an SUV with a spacious cabin and good storage space at the rear, he informed. 

Integrating best-in-class technologies with a bold yet smart selection of colours, materials and finishes, the vehicle comes with a panoramic glass roof. Packed with advanced infotainment, large screens and features like connected car technology, the Curvv adheres to its manufacturer’s legacy of safety by being engineered to meet the strictest safety norms with a host of active and passive safety features.

Shailesh Chandra, Managing Director, Tata Motors Passenger Vehicles Ltd, and Tata Passenger Electric Mobility Ltd, said, “Tata Motors has pioneered the Indian SUV arena. What’s more is that we have repeatedly disrupted the category though innovative designs that deliver great road presence as well as enhanced functionality. The original Sierra, Safari, Nexon, Punch and Harrier are testament to this design led market leadership in SUVs. Taking this legacy forward and to further strengthen our SUV portfolio, we have once again broken the clutter in the effervescent and aspirational mid SUV category by introducing the Tata Curvv - India’s first SUV Coupe - a disruptive design which democratises the Coupe body style in the premium categories, providing best in segment performance and never before seen practicality. Further, Curvv is at the forefront of our multi powertrain strategy, with options across petrol, diesel and electric powertrains. With the Curvv we will address a wide variety of needs of the mid SUV customers, providing them with a fresh and delightfully designed product complimented by premium performance.”

Tata Motors Passenger Vehicles (TMPV) has launched the Nexon CAMO, a new special edition of its popular compact SUV, with prices beginning at INR 999,000 ex-showroom in Delhi. The introduction coincides with the brand’s celebration of a decade since the Nexon’s original debut and the trust of over 1.1 million customers, marking the model’s enduring success in the Indian automotive market.

The new CAMO variant distinguishes itself with two exclusive premium paint schemes, named Munnar Mist and Coorg Cloud. The former is a dynamic dark green that shifts to a sophisticated grey in shadows and reveals rich green and golden tones under sunlight. In contrast, the latter is a contemporary grey-silver finish with subtle metallic highlights, designed to offer an understated yet premium aesthetic that complements the SUV's rugged character.

TMPV has equipped the Nexon CAMO with a significant technology upgrade, headlined by an Ultra View Twin HD Digital Cockpit. This features a 31.24-cm infotainment system and a 26.03-cm digital instrument cluster, both from Harman, with the latter including embedded navigation. The technology package is further enhanced by an integrated dashcam recorder that is part of the 360-degree camera surround view system, which also includes a blind spot view monitor.

The special edition is not solely about aesthetics and screens, as it also incorporates a comprehensive suite of comfort and safety features. The cabin includes ventilated leatherette front seats, a voice-assisted panoramic sunroof, and an immersive nine-speaker JBL audio system with a subwoofer. Safety is addressed through seven Advanced Driver Assistance Systems functions calibrated for Indian roads, six airbags and electronic stability control, ensuring the CAMO is as secure as it is stylish.

Maintaining the Nexon’s hallmark versatility, the CAMO is offered across all three powertrain options: a 1.2-litre turbocharged petrol, a 1.5-litre diesel and the segment-exclusive 1.2-litre turbocharged iCNG with twin-cylinder technology. With multiple transmission choices available, the automaker has positioned the Nexon CAMO as a distinctive and aspirational package for a wide range of SUV buyers, reinforcing the model's legacy of innovation as the festive season approaches.

Vivek Srivatsa, Chief Commercial Officer, Tata Passenger Electric Mobility, said, "Since its launch a decade ago, the Nexon has provided comfortable, safe and enjoyable journeys for over 1.1 million families, becoming one of India's most iconic nameplates with an unmissable presence on the roads. This success has been built on constantly raising the bar in safety, technology and design while keeping these innovations accessible to a wider set of customers. The Nexon CAMO carries that spirit forward, with two striking new colours and an elevated technology package that makes it the most distinctive Nexon yet. Timed perfectly for the festive season, it gives customers an even stronger reason to make the Nexon their own."

Japanese automotive company Mitsubishi Motors Corporation has shared an update regarding its upcoming new Pajero SUV launch scheduled for premiere this autumn.

The automaker confirmed that the vehicle combines off-road driving capabilities across weather and road conditions with on-road ride refinement.

The SUV utilises a ladder frame chassis paired with a re-engineered suspension system designed to maintain road-holding performance over uneven surfaces, bumps and terrain impacts. The setup aims to reduce body movement and cabin vibration to support occupant comfort during long-distance driving.

Handling and drive distribution are managed by Mitsubishi Motors' Super-All Wheel Control (S-AWC) technology. The integrated vehicle dynamics control system manages power output and braking to optimise stability and traction across driving conditions.
