Tata Curvv EV Empowered X 55 #DARK Design
The #DARK edition is all about looks. It gets blacked-out exterior elements and a dark-themed interior, which give the Curvv EV’s coupe shape a sportier, more aggressive feel. If you like an all-black style that stands out on the road, this is the variant to pick.
Tata Curvv EV Empowered X 55 #DARK Features
Under the black finish, you get every feature of the Empowered X 55. Inside, there’s a 31.24 cm (12.3-inch) touchscreen, a 26.03 cm (10.25-inch) digital instrument cluster, wireless Android Auto and Apple CarPlay and a 9-speaker JBL sound system. Comfort features include ventilated front seats, a six-way powered driver seat, mood lighting, an air purifier, an auto-dimming IRVM, rear sunshades and a voice assisted panoramic sunroof.
You also get a powered tailgate with gesture control, drive modes, V2L (vehicle-to-load) to power appliances and V2V (vehicle-to-vehicle) to charge another EV.
Tata Curvv EV Empowered X 55 #DARK Safety and ADAS Features
For safety, you get six airbags, ESC, TPMS, a 360-degree camera, a blind spot view monitor, front and rear parking sensors and disc brakes on all four wheels. It also gets Level 2 ADAS, which helps a lot on long highway drives. The Curvv EV has a 5-star Bharat NCAP rating.
Tata Curvv EV Empowered X 55 #DARK Range and Charging
The #DARK has a certified MIDC range of 502 km. Real-world range is lower, and it depends on speed, traffic, AC use and road conditions. With a 70 kW DC fast charger, it goes from 10 to 80% in about 40 minutes. At home, a 7.2 kW AC wall box charges it from 10 to 100% in about 7 hours 36 minutes. The battery gets a lifetime warranty for the first owner, valid up to 15 years from first registration.
What the #DARK Adds Over the Empowered X 55
The #DARK has the same battery, motor, range and features as the Empowered X 55. For Rs 30,000 more, the only change is the blacked-out exterior and interior. There are no extra features, so you’re paying purely for the look.
Who Should Buy the Tata Curvv EV Empowered X 55 #DARK?
This variant suits buyers who want the fully loaded Curvv EV with a bold all-black style. If the dark look is worth Rs 30,000 to you, it’s a good pick. If not, the Empowered X 55 gives you every feature for less, and the Accomplished X 55 gives you the same battery and range for Rs 2.50 lakh less than the #DARK.
