Key Takeaways

  • Save for the Citroen Basalt, the Tata Curvv undercuts the entry-level variants of all compact SUVs here by around Rs 1 lakh. The Basalt’s entry-level variant however is Rs 2 lakh more affordable than the base-spec Smart variant of the Curvv.

  • In top-spec, the ADAS equipped variant of the Curvv petrol manual costs Rs 22,000 more than the top-spec SX(O) petrol manual variant of the Creta.

  • At 48,000 less than the top-spec Curvv, you can also opt for the all-wheel-drive Alpha variant of the Maruti Grand Vitara. The AWD variant of the Hyryder is also available and priced close to the top-spec variant of the Curvv.

  • In petrol, Tata offers the Curvv with two turbo-petrol engine options: a new 125 PS 1.2-litre GDi (direct injection) turbo-petrol engine and a 120 PS 1.2-litre petrol engine borrowed from the Tata Nexon. Both get the option of either a 6-speed manual transmission or a 7-speed dual clutch automatic transmission.

  • The Basalt also gets two engine options: a 1.2-litre naturally aspirated petrol (82 PS/115 Nm) and a 1.2-litre turbo-petrol [110 PS/190 Nm (MT)]. The former comes mated to a 5-speed manual transmission, meanwhile the latter is mated to a 6-speed manual transmission.

  • Hyundai Creta and Kia Seltos here get the same 115 PS 1.5-litre naturally aspirated petrol engines. The Creta gets a 6-speed manual transmission, meanwhile the Seltos additionally also comes with a 6-speed iMT (manual transmission without clutch pedal), with its 160 PS 1.5-litre turbo-petrol engine. However, there's a huge price gap between the higher-spec variants of the Basalt and the corresponding variants of the Seltos with iMT gearbox.

  • The Grand Vitara and Hyryder, on the other hand, also get a 1.5-litre naturally aspirated petrol engine (103 PS/137 Nm) mated to a 5-speed manual transmission. The Basalt Turbo here gets an advantage as it not only makes slightly more power, but also gets a 6-speed manual transmission.
