Tata Motors, one of India’s leading automobile manufacturers, is set to revolutionize the CNG segment with the upcoming launch of the Tata Curvv CNG. Marking a significant milestone, the Curvv CNG will be India’s first coupe SUV to feature a turbo-petrol engine paired with a CNG kit, offering customers a unique combination of performance, efficiency, and style.
Expected to hit the Indian market by late 2024 or early 2025, the Tata Curvv CNG is poised to offer strong competition in the growing CNG segment. The price is expected to start at approximately ₹10 lakh.
Design: Bold and Unchanged
The Tata Curvv CNG will retain its modern and dynamic design, staying true to the stunning coupe SUV silhouette showcased earlier this year. With sharp lines, a sporty roofline, and a futuristic look, the Curvv continues to exude elegance and style.
Engine and Performance: Turbo-Petrol Innovation
At the heart of the Tata Curvv CNG lies a 1.2-litre turbo-petrol engine, which currently powers the popular Tata Nexon. This engine produces:
- 99 bhp of power
- 170 Nm of torque
However, slight adjustments in power and torque figures are expected with the CNG kit integration. Tata’s innovation with turbo-petrol technology in a CNG model makes the Curvv a groundbreaking offering in the Indian automotive market.
Twin CNG Tanks: No Compromise on Space
The Curvv CNG features Tata’s twin-cylinder CNG technology, housing two 30-litre CNG tanks (total capacity of 60 liters). This smart packaging ensures no reduction in boot space, addressing a common issue faced by CNG car owners. Tata’s design ingenuity promises practicality without compromising storage, making the Curvv CNG ideal for urban families and long-distance travelers alike.

Safety remains a top priority for Tata Motors, and the Tata Curvv CNG is no exception. The car has already received a 5-star safety rating in crash tests and comes equipped with:
- 6 airbags
- Anti-lock Braking System (ABS)
- Electronic Stability Program (ESP)
- Brake Assist
- 3-point seat belts for all seats
- Disc brakes for enhanced stopping power
These features ensure that the Curvv CNG offers superior safety, setting a new benchmark in the segment.
Features: Premium Infotainment and Sound System
For tech-savvy customers, the Tata Curvv CNG offers premium features, including:
- A 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment system for seamless connectivity and entertainment
- A JBL sound system with 9 speakers and voice assist, catering to music lovers and enhancing the driving experience
Competitive Pricing and Market Position
The Tata Curvv CNG is expected to be priced at approximately ₹10 lakh, positioning it competitively within the CNG SUV segment. Comparatively, the Tata Nexon CNG, powered by the same engine, starts at ₹8.99 lakh and goes up to ₹14.59 lakh for the top variant.
With its groundbreaking turbo-CNG technology, advanced safety features, and premium offerings, the Tata Curvv CNG is poised to attract both performance-oriented and eco-conscious buyers in India.
Conclusion: A Game-Changer for the CNG Market
