CUPRA has confirmed that the UrbanRebel concept, first unveiled at the 2021 Munich Motor Show with a road car concept appearing a year later, will be introduced as the CUPRA Raval. That car itself followed on from its first EV, the CUPRA Born. The front-wheel drive urban electric car uses the Volkswagen Group’s MEB Small platform. According to CUPRA, the car as it stands is 95% representative of the final production car with only minor tweaks to the likes of door handles and mirrors to come. I think there’s a need out there to do a car for the next generation who are really enthusiastic about cars – and that’s what we do at CUPRA,” added Griffiths in conversation with Auto Express. “So the Cupra Rebel will stay very rebellious in the series car – it’ll be very sporty. The inspiration will remain on the series car and we will bring that in 2025.”.
