Weird and confusing trim names, but hey, it’s all part of this transition phase, so in the name of Eric Cartman, just roll with it.
Key features depending on the trim include automatic LED headlights, welcome & goodbye animations, sequential turn signals, front fog lights with cornering function, voice assisted panoramic sunroof, and 18-inch alloy wheels with aero inserts. Passive safety includes standard 6 airbags across all variants.
The Curvv.ev 55 Empowered+ A variant gets the Level 2 ADAS suite, which includes Adaptive Cruise Control with Stop & Go, Lane Departure Warning, Lane Keep Assist, Lane Change Alert, Blind Spot Detection, Blind Spot View Monitor, 360º 3D Surround View Camera System, Adaptive Steering Assist, Forward Collision Warning, Automatic Emergency Braking, High Beam Assist, Traffic Sign Recognition, Rear Cross Traffic Alert, Rear Collision Warning, and Driver Doze-off Alert.
Both are front-wheel-drive vehicles. Meaning, there’s a single motor at the front, offering 110 kW (150 metric hp) and 215 Nm (159 lb-ft) in the 45 variant. In the 55, the power increases to 123 kW (167 metric hp), while the torque remains the same. The variant names indicate the battery pack capacities, which are 45 kWh and 55 kWh, claimed to offer MIDC ranges of 502 km (312 mi) and 585 km (363 mi), respectively. Of course, these tests are done under a set of textbook rules, so the real-world ranges will vary. The battery pack can be DC fast-charged with up to 70 kW. The vehicle supports V2V and V2L bi-directional charging.
As for the warranty, the company is offering 8 years or 1,60,000 km on the battery pack and motor, and 3 years or 1,25,000 km on the vehicle itself.
The above photos are of the ICE-powered Curvv, but you get the idea. Key features inside include a 10.24-inch digital cluster, a 12.3-inch central touchscreen, Android Auto & Apple CarPlay connectivity, Alexa voice assistant, 6-way power-adjustable driver seat, JBL audio system, and air purifier with AQI display.
