Real Indian driving conditions should tell us how will the range anxiety of Tata Curvv EV compare to other EVs.
24 October 2024 07:05
For city use it seems fine but traveling long trips might be stressful. Until we have viable, reliable fast charging networks on our highways, any EV, I am afraid, will cause road trippers to worry.
Is the Tata Nexon's safety ratings just an overhyped reality?
23 October 2024 12:31
The 5* rating is real, not everything! Yes, it’s good for marketing but real world safety is more than just crash test. The Nexon's build quality is decent but then there's also active safety features and the much talked about driver assistance tech.
Is the Tata Nexon's safety ratings just an overhyped reality?
23 October 2024 12:31
Overhyped? No way! The Nexon's rating is a big deal in a country where road safety is a huge issue. It's forcing other manufacturers to step up their efforts. It's not perfect, but it is a step in the right direction towards getting Indian car safety standards up to scratch, yeah.
Is the Tata Nexon's safety ratings just an overhyped reality?
23 October 2024 12:31
I think it's a bit overhyped. Don't get me wrong, safety is good, but then again, the Nexon isn't the only safe car. Some competitors have similar safety features, but don't advertise it as much as those who do. Plus, safety ratings don't matter nearly as much as safe driving habits.
Is the Tata Nexon's safety ratings just an overhyped reality?
23 October 2024 12:31
And I don't even have room to comment being somebody who's been in a bad accident so why I'm not hyped is totally beyond me. There’s nothing like knowing your car has a top safety rating and giving you peace of mind. It's not the only thing but it’s gotta be one of the most important things if you’re picking out a family car.

But it’s not the entire story, and it’s not overhyped. The 5-star rating is good enough, but Tata needs to work on creating build quality consistency and long term reliability as well. Safety is just one part of this.
Will the Curvv’s bold design change perceptions of Tata as a brand?
22 October 2024 15:41
I think it will certainly help change perceptions. The Curvv looks nothing like old Tatas – and that is just what they need. This will get people to be talking about and reconsidering the brand – especially younger buyers.

22 October 2024 15:41
Design alone isn't enough. If Tata want to change minds, they need to nail the quality and reliability. You can't wipe away years of the public forgetting about your cars because they were so crappy in build quality with just one cool looking car.
Will the Curvv’s bold design change perceptions of Tata as a brand?
22 October 2024 15:41
You're both partially right. The Curvv will put butts in showrooms, but the difference will be the entire experience, a great test drive, a quality build experience and a great dealer interaction experience.

22 October 2024 15:41
I feel we are underestimating how much Tata has got himself better already. That's where the Curvv enters the picture; it's just the cherry on top. They have been solid with their recent models and have top notch safety ratings. This is the last piece of the puzzle in the design.
Will the Curvv’s bold design change perceptions of Tata as a brand?
22 October 2024 15:41
Come on … many Indian buyers still regard Tata as a 'budget' brand. For their traditional customer base, the Curvv may be too expensive, and too un-grand to entice buyers from overseas brands. It could go and wind up somewhere in the middle.
Will the Curvv’s bold design change perceptions of Tata as a brand?
22 October 2024 15:41
Don’t forget the EV angle though, you are all missing that. If Tata succeeds in positioning the Curvv – especially the electric version – as a tech forward and sustainable alternative, it can significantly alter what we think about Tata. Though it's not all about looks, but being future ready.
Will the Curvv’s bold design change perceptions of Tata as a brand?
22 October 2024 15:41
I'm skeptical. When Tata launched the Nano, do you remember? That ought to have been revolutionary too. Just because one interesting model doesn't cause long term changes in brand perception, and just because one interesting model doesn't deliver in every market, doesn't mean that a model will never generate long term change in brand perception or that it won't do well in every single market.
Is the Tata Nexon EV all that it’s hyped to be, or is it just jumping the bandwagon on EVs?
22 October 2024 13:13
Of all the EVs in India (and there aren’t many), honestly, I think the Nexon EV deserves most of the hype. It is not perfect, but as an all around solid entry for anyone looking to go electric without spending the bank, its a solid choice. It’s not a bad range for a city car, and Tata is beefing up the charging infrastructure. Plus, they’ve got that SUV look to it which everyone seems to be crazy about nowadays.

22 October 2024 13:13
Nah, it's overhyped. In hot weather with AC on, that real world range is a whole lot less than Tata claims. Good luck ever having a fast charger available when you realize you want one. This is a step in the right direction, but wait till you have better options or until the infrastructure improves if you intend to jump on the EV bandwagon.

I’ve had one for a year and love it. Yes, the range is by no means amazing, but that's not what you are going to need for the majority of commutes and weekend outings. It is addictive instant torque, and I like not going to petrol pumps anymore. It isn’t perfect but it’s a fantastic first EV for a lot of people.

If you look at it as a pioneer in the affordable EV space in India, the hype is justified. This has opened up the market, really, and forced other manufacturers to raise their game. But with so many newer options popping up all the time, it's starting to look its age a little. Tata needs to innovate and they have to continue in innovating if they are to remain ahead.

22 October 2024 13:13
I think it's a bit of both. The Nexon EV is a good car, but there’s also quite some hype built around it due to lack of options in its price range. We'll have a much better idea of where it stands, as more competitors enter the market. It's a decent choice now, if you are EV curious and and don't want to spend a fortune.
When we talk about the Tata Curvv EV, will it tap into the avant garde features such as a touchscreen smart watch with a remote controlled feature; will it be a game changer or just another gimmick?
22 October 2024 09:43
I certainly believe it will be a game changer. The Indian consumer loves tech and a slick infotainment system may swing it for a lot of buyers, particularly the younger ones.

It's another distraction. We should have our heads turned towards the road, not towards shiny touchscreens. The last thing we need in Indian traffic is more excuses for taking our eyes off the road.
