Himachal Pradesh Police Induct Tata Curvv EVs for High-Altitude Patrols

Early sightings show purpose-built livery, roof lights plus recording gear on the electric patrol SUVs.

Overview

  • Himachal Pradesh Police have added Tata Curvv electric SUVs to their fleet, with units photographed at a dealership and highlighted in a widely shared Instagram video.
  • The vehicles carry a white police livery with prominent markings, a helpline number, Road Safety Enforcement text and Dial 112 stickers for clear identification.
  • Roof-mounted red and blue beacons are fitted, and reports describe a siren or hooter installation to support emergency response.
  • Outlets report likely cabin additions such as a laptop or computing device, secure firearm storage and wireless communications, though these interior details have not been officially confirmed.
  • Cited Curvv specifications include up to a 55 kWh battery, a single front motor rated around 165 bhp and 215 Nm, and a manufacturer-claimed range of about 502 km, with observers noting EV performance is less affected by altitude even as steep climbs can reduce range.
