CUPRA Tavascan – a journey to its origins

Just a few miles away from the border with France, the village of Tavascan stands imposingly in the heart of the Pyrenees. The CUPRA Tavascan, which draws its inspiration from the town, sets out on a journey to its origins. There, the two realities meet to discover that they share much more than just a name.With its 250 kW (340 PS) output, the CUPRA Tavascan is the brand’s first all-electric SUV coupe and lives up to its namesake, which is home to one of the most unconventional hydroelectric power plants in the territory. Located 500 metres deep inside the mountains and with one of the most important waterfalls in Europe, it has completely changed life in the village. This goal is shared by CUPRA, which aims to reinvent electrification with the CUPRA Tavascan and prove that electric cars can deliver high sporty performance.With its stone walls and wooden roofs, the village of Tavascan blends in with the surrounding natural environment, just like the CUPRA Tavascan as it drives through its streets. The design team was deeply inspired by nature at its purest when creating the car.
