Driving a Spanish newcomer today – The Cupra Tavascan, the maker’s second
electric model retains its Spanish flair despite being built in China. Cupra, part of
the Volkswagen Group, and having a better year, sales up 40 percent on 2024.
The Tavascon a sporty striking coupe style SUV in two models, the rear drive
210kW Endurance and the sportier 250kW all-wheel drive VZ - I drove the VZ with
dual electric motors, a 77kWhour battery and 499km range – it gains an adaptive
electronic suspension, power heated front seats, a fixed glass sunroof, leather
trim, large 21-inch alloy wheels with copper accents and 12 speaker sound. All up
a sporty mid-sized SUV, $79,990 drive-away, different and distinctive in several
areas – especially inside with a central V-design central spine that extends
rearwards – practical and highlighted with Cupra’s signature copper inlays.
Underneath this central flyover there’s excellent storage and phone charging –
the layout with large central touchscreen and a small instrument binnacle in front
of the driver, all very user friendly, apart from a lack of buttons for air-
conditioning and radio. A frustration, like so many EVs and the ability to use
safely only when stationary. Warranty, five years, unlimited km, Battery, eight
years, 160,000kms.
