Spy Shots – Cupra Tavascan Mule

The Cupra Tavascan was first shown as a concept in 2019 but has evolved into a mid-sized all-electric SUV with a clear emphasis on design. A mule using Volkswagen’s ID.4 to hide away the newcomer’s tech under the VW’s design has today been spied on and around the German Nürburgring race circuit.

The Tavascan will become Cupra’s second battery electric vehicle – alongside the Born – and the brand’s first EV SUV.

Sharing its electrical architecture and underpinnings with the Volkswagen ID.4 and Skoda Enyaq iV, the Tavascan has a sleeker body more in line with the Volkswagen ID.5. Specifications aren’t official yet but with the concept Tavascan Cupra has previously suggested it will use a dual-motor setup providing a combined 225kW. That concept was fed by a 77kWh battery claimed to provide up to 450 kilometres of range.
