585 kilometres on a single charge. Let that sink in. The Tata Curvv EV doesn't just look like a concept car that escaped the auto show — it actually has the range to back up the style. And in Chennai, where your daily commute is probably 40–60 km round-trip, you'd be charging this thing once a week.

The Curvv EV starts at ₹18.69 lakh ex-showroom and, thanks to Tamil Nadu's zero road tax on electric vehicles, the on-road premium over the ex-showroom price is the smallest in this list. Eight variants, one gorgeous design. Here's the full picture.

Every Curvv EV Variant and Price

The EV On-Road Advantage

Here's where EVs win big in Tamil Nadu. Zero road tax means the gap between ex-showroom and on-road is dramatically smaller than petrol/diesel cars:

Compare that to a similarly-priced ICE car where RTO alone would be ₹1.8–2.5 lakh. That's a ₹1.5–2 lakh saving right at purchase. The top-end EMPOWERED+ A LR DK at ₹23.66L ex-showroom lands at roughly ₹24.8–25.0L on-road.

Running Cost Reality Check

Let's talk about what it actually costs to run a Curvv EV in Chennai. Assuming you charge at home using a standard 15A socket (or the included Tata wall box):

Average electricity cost in Chennai: ₹5–7 per unit. The Curvv EV's efficiency is roughly 7–8 km per unit. That works out to ₹0.70–1.00 per km. Compare that to the Curvv diesel at ₹4–5 per km or petrol at ₹6–7 per km. Over 5 years and 60,000 km, you're saving ₹2.5–3.5 lakh in fuel alone.

Which Variant?

Smartest Buy: ACCOMPLISHED — ₹19.73 L

430 km range, 12.3" touchscreen, connected car features, fast charging (0–80% in 40 minutes at a DC fast charger), ventilated seats, and 6 airbags. This is the variant that hits the price-to-value sweet spot. Under ₹21L on-road.

For the Road Tripper: EMPOWERED+ LR — ₹22.62 L

585 km range means Chennai to Bangalore on a single charge. Add the panoramic sunroof, full ADAS suite, and the premium Harman audio — and weekend road trips become effortless.

The Entry Point: CREATIVE — ₹18.69 L

The most affordable way into the Curvv EV. You still get the head-turning design, the electric drivetrain, fast charging, and enough range for daily use. Under ₹20L on-road is remarkable for what you get.

Charging in Chennai

Chennai's charging infrastructure has improved dramatically. Tata Power has stations at Express Avenue, Phoenix MarketCity, and several locations along GST Road. Most Curvv EV owners we've sold to charge at home overnight — a full charge from a 15A socket takes 12–15 hours, which means you plug in after dinner and wake up to a full battery.
