For quite some time, the Indian automotive customer has been keen on boxy, practical SUVs that offer plenty of space and versatility. But in a bid to break away from this mold, the Curvv is a sleeker, more style focused device. That transition creates concerns over how well it will cope with Indian road conditions, which are diverse and frequently difficult. Do I really mind the sloping roofline when considering rear passenger comfort on long family road trips? What kind of cargo space does that leave when you need to load up for a weekend getaway or a big shopping trip? What about ground clearance and visibility in potholed streets, or cramped urban areas? The Curvv's supporters claim it delivers on style and practicality, while the skeptics fear it's too extreme on style and too sensible on practicality. It raises some core questions about which issues Indian car buyers truly value, and whether those priorities are changing.
