CUPRA has added a new entry-level Origin trim to its all-electric Tavascan SUV coupe in the UK, priced from £39,995 (about $52,860) on-the-road (OTR) and offered with a new 58 kWh, 187 hp (190 PS) battery. The refreshed Tavascan lineup now has five trims and three powertrains, and the company says the changes are meant to bring its electrified range to more drivers. CUPRA has also cut the OTR price of selected Tavascan orders by up to £1,600 (about $2,110). OTR is the UK’s all-in retail price.

Tavascan Origin Trim and 58 kWh Battery
The Tavascan now comes in five trim levels: Origin, V1, V2, VZ, and VZ Extreme. The Origin’s standard equipment includes:
- 19-inch “VULCANO” alloy wheels
- Heated front seats
- 10.25-inch Digital Cockpit
- 15-inch central infotainment display
The new 58 kWh battery joins the 77 kWh powertrains already offered at 282 hp (286 PS) and 335 hp (340 PS). Those 77 kWh versions have been the core of the range since Tavascan order books opened in the UK. According to CUPRA, the three powertrain options give buyers more choice of performance, specification, and range.
New Technology Across the Tavascan Range
The 2026 Tavascan adds several features, each available from a specific trim upward:
- Mobile Device Key: from V1
- Vehicle-to-Load (V2L): from V1
- Sennheiser Contrabass: from V2
- Launch Control: VZ
All trims can also get a 10.25-inch Digital Cockpit, an Android-powered infotainment system, and intelligent climate control, though the exact equipment varies by trim. The Tavascan sits in CUPRA’s lineup alongside the Born, which the company describes as its first 100% electric vehicle.
