[Nairrk]

The Tata Curvv SUV-coupe will soon be the latest car from the Indian marque’s lineup to get a Dark Edition. An official video has been dropped teasing this special edition for the first time, giving us a glimpse at its DRL and silhouette, which looks familiar to the standard model. Tata cars are not new to Dark editions, and the Curvv, along with its EV version, will get cosmetic changes with an all black styling.

The 11-second video teaser shows off an LED DRL and the side profile silhouette of the Tata Curvv Dark Edition. Besides this, not much has been given away in the teaser. However, we have already got exclusive images of this special edition SUV coupe, which boasts an identical design to the regular model. Obviously, the main difference is the new black body colour. Also, it distinguishes itself with more blacked out elements, dark chrome logos, as well as exclusive #Dark badgings.

Just like other Tata models with Dark editions, the Curvv too comes with an all black interior, which looks sportier and is further accentuated by gloss black inserts in the centre console for a plush look in the cabin. We have detailed its design using real-life pictures in another article, which you can check below.

The Tata Curvv Dark edition will likely be based on the higher-spec variants of the regular model and will get identical features like a 12.3-inch touchscreen infotainment, a 10.25-inch driver’s display, a 9-speaker JBL sound system, a panoramic sunroof, ventilated front seats with 6-way power adjustable driver’s seat, reclining rear seats, an air purifier, automatic climate control and a wireless phone charger.

Its safety tech will also be the same, continuing with 6 airbags (as standard), a 360-degree camera, a tyre pressure monitoring system (TPMS), electronic parking brake with auto hold, front and rear parking sensors, and a Level-2 advanced driver assistance system (ADAS) suite.

The standard Tata Curvv has an option of two turbo-petrol and one diesel engine option in its powertrain with both manual and dual clutch automatic gearboxes. The Dark edition, being based on the higher variants, is likely to be offered with just the TGDi turbo petrol and diesel engine option.

The dark edition actually looks a lot better with the overstyled elements like the grille having a toned down effect in this black colour. In Motorinc Karthikaye's words" The less said about the grill, the better." Also why this obsession with the black panel super thin effect for rear lights that martin is bringing. Whats wrong with good old red coloured taillights with quality leds.
Look at the Skoda EV, their evs' dont look like some alien objects but very mainstream and elegant.
