The Creta Electric, like the Tata Curvv EV, comes with two battery pack options and a similar price range. We find out the better option

Hyundai Creta Electric vs Tata Curvv EV

The Hyundai Creta Electric was launched recently as a prime rival to the Tata Curvv EV at the Bharat Mobility Global Expo 2025. It has a similar design as the internal combustion engine (ICE) powered Creta and has a lot of features on offer, along with two battery pack options. That said, does it have enough to beat the Tata Curvv EV, at least on paper? Let us find out.

Prices

Hyundai Creta Electric	Rs 17.99 lakh to Rs 23.50 lakh
Tata Curvv EV	Rs 17.49 lakh to Rs 21.99 lakh

*Prices are introductory ex-showroom, pan-India

The Creta Electric is more expensive than the Curvv EV in every aspect. The entry-level variant of the Creta EV costs Rs 50,000 more than the base variant of the Curvv EV, while the top-spec trim of the Creta Electric is Rs 1.51 lakh pricier than the fully-loaded variant of the Curvv EV.

Dimensions

Tata Curvv EV

Dimensions	Hyundai Creta Electric	Tata Curvv EV	Difference
Length	4340 mm	4310 mm	+ 30 mm
Width	1790 mm	1810 mm	(- 20 mm)
Height	1655 mm	1637 mm	+ 18 mm
Wheelbase	2610 mm	2560 mm	+ 50 mm
Ground clearance	200 mm	Up to 190 mm	+ at least 10 mm

The Creta Electric is larger in nearly every dimension compared to the Curvv EV, which can translate to more interior space in the real world. It also has better ground clearance, allowing it to handle tough terrains more easily than the Tata rival.

Electric Powertrain Options

The Tata Curvv EV takes the lead here with larger battery pack options and a significantly better claimed range than the Hyundai Creta Electric. Additionally, the motor paired with the smaller battery pack on the Curvv EV produces 15 PS and 15 Nm more power than the Creta Electric’s smaller battery pack motor. When paired with the larger battery packs, both EVs produce similar power, but the Curvv EV generates more torque than the Creta Electric.

Hyundai Creta Electric Driver's Display

The Creta Electric stands out with Active Air Flaps, an 8-way electrically adjustable driver’s seat with memory function, an 8-way adjustable co-driver’s seat with boss mode and dual-zone AC, all of which are not available in the Curvv EV.

Verdict

Hyundai Creta Electric Rear

The Hyundai Creta Electric offers a feature-packed experience with Active Air Flaps, a sophisticated front seat function suite, a panoramic sunroof, dual digital screens, and dual-zone AC. It also boasts a strong safety suite with 6 airbags, level-2 ADAS, a 360-degree camera, and TPMS. Plus, it provides more interior space than the Tata Curvv EV. However, it falls behind the Curvv EV in terms of electric powertrain performance. If you're looking for a well-equipped EV with decent performance, the Creta Electric is a solid choice.

Tata Curvv EV

On the other hand, the Tata Curvv EV stands out with its unique body style and impressive electric powertrain specifications, offering better range and more powerful motors than the Creta Electric. While it also comes loaded with features, you may experience occasional technical glitches, as seen with some of the other Tata models in rare instances. If you prioritise better performance and a striking design, the Tata Curvv EV is the better option.
