Cupra to launch three new cars in next three years

Cupra is expanding its model line-up with three new cars over the next three years.

Two of Cupra’s new models will be fully electric and form part of the brand’s plan to sell 500,000 cars per year.

The Cupra Tavascan, which utilises VW ID4 underpinnings, will arrive in 2024. It will take the form of an SUV, entering the competitive family crossover space.

Cupra has not confirmed which powertrains will be used in the Tavascan, but its likley the 299PS all-wheel-drive setup from the ID4 GTX will be utilised, alongside a 77kWh battery.

In 2025, the brand will introduce the UrbanRebel, a compact SUV that sits beneath the Born.

The compact, front-wheel-drive model will use a 226PS motor and have a range of up to 273 miles.

The UrbanRebel will be the first of three compact EVs from VW Group. Skoda and VW variants will follow, with the cheapest models expected to start from £17,000.

Cupra will also launch the Terramar, an SUV with a similar footprint to its existing Ateca model. The Terramar will be offered with a new-generation of plug-in hybrid engine, providing a zero-emission range of more than 60 miles.

Alongside the three new models, Cupra will also unveil facelifted version of the Cupra Leon and Formentor, with redesigned front ends to bring their styling more in line with the brand’s new range of electric cars.
