In 2025, CUPRA will launch the Raval, an innovative electric city car that combines performance, sustainability, and emotions.
CUPRA is preparing to shake up the automotive conventions with the launch of its electric city car. The CUPRA Raval is ready to go, and its launch is planned for 2025. This model, also known as the UrbanRebel, is designed to embody a more rebellious vision of electric mobility. The designers aim to go beyond the traditional boundaries of the brand.
Built on the Volkswagen Group’s MEB Small platform, the Raval promises an urban driving experience that is both high-performance and emotional. With its 4.03-meter length, it positions itself as an environmentally friendly vehicle, integrating recycled polymers and bio-based materials. The use of advanced technologies, such as 3D printing, highlights CUPRA’s commitment to sustainability while enhancing performance.
CUPRA wants to shake up the electric car market
Under the hood, the Raval hides a 226-hp (166 kW) engine. This allows it to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in just 6.9 seconds. Its battery offers an impressive range of up to 440 km depending on the chosen version. A criterion that perfectly meets the needs of modern city dwellers.
Developed in Barcelona, the production of the CUPRA UrbanRebel will take place in Martorell, as part of the Strategic Project for Economic Recovery and Transformation (PERTE). A program dedicated to electric and connected vehicles.
Wayne Griffiths, CEO of CUPRA, stated: “The UrbanRebel is more than just a car. It’s the model that will democratize urban electric mobility. Emotional, fun to drive, and accessible, we prove that electric cars don’t have to be boring.” In the near future, the Raval could well redefine the standards of electric city cars.
