There are some cars that simply arrive, and others that announce themselves. The Cupra Tavascan V1 EV falls resoundingly into the latter category. With its sharp-cut lines, athletic stance and confident Spanish flair, the Tavascan doesn?t whisper electrification?it roars it, albeit silently. Registered in February 2025 and showing just 830 miles, this example in Tavascan Blue is barely run-in. The colour, exclusive to this model, is a deep metallic hue that shifts subtly with the light?somewhere between regal and rebellious. It suits the Tavascan perfectly. Beneath its sculpted bonnet lies Volkswagen Group?s tried and tested MEB platform, meaning this is a car with real-world EV credibility: fast charging, composed dynamics, and range that genuinely holds up to scrutiny. But the Cupra goes one further?it adds theatre. The V1 trim balances tech and luxury with confidence, offering a sleek cabin bristling with quality materials, copper accents, and intuitive digital interfaces. Performance? Predictably electric. Instant torque from the motor means brisk progress, but it?s the chassis that impresses most: agile, surefooted, and surprisingly engaging for an SUV. It feels like a car engineered by people who enjoy driving, not just efficiency metrics.
