Our take
The real reason to pay ₹0.49L more for the Curvv EV Empowered X Dark: 167 PS against 135 PS, a 24 percent jump you will feel and about 82 km further between charges, at 502 km of claimed range against 420 km. It also adds level 2 (core suite) ADAS and 360° camera. The rest of the additions are minor trim. At that price, we would stretch.
- Also on the Curvv EV Empowered X Dark: blind spot monitor, JBL system with Dolby Atmos, touchscreen (12.3" against 10.25") and vehicle-to-load (V2L), and some minor trim beyond that
- Going to the Curvv EV Empowered X Dark, you give up all-wheel disc brakes, SOS emergency call (E-call / B-call) and hill descent control, which the Creta Electric Executive Tech keeps
- Choose the Hyundai Creta Electric Executive Tech if
- You would rather keep the ₹0.49L than pay for kit you will not miss, and the EV running costs seal it
- Choose the Tata Curvv EV Empowered X Dark if
- You want the stronger, quicker car and will use the performance
