In road tests, the Curvv looked a bolder and more athletic that many mid-size SUVs. The clean body lines and bold wheel arches perfectly complement the contemporary SUV design. The coupe-style roofline is the distinctive feature that acquires the Curvv the look of a high end luxurious SUV. The diamond-cut finish on the alloy wheels highlight its sportive look.

Even when the city traffic is bulging, the power delivery is predictable and pleasant. The steering is light and easy in city traffic at low speeds, and it gains more confidence at high speeds on highway. This gives confidence and control to the driver. The suspension is well tuned to soak most of the small and big bumps making the ride quality neutral with comfort and a bit of body roll.
Even when the road was bumpy, the cabin remained solid and the passengers were not shaken up too much.
