An electric city car "loaded" with scary aerodynamic aids. An EV that sprints from standstill to 60 mph in just 3.2 seconds. CUPRA has presented us with a radical proposal for a high-performance electric city car. The CUPRA UrbanRebel Concept combines electricity, sustainability and performance, with CUPRA's exciting aesthetics. It gives a first glimpse of the future design line of the urban electric vehicle to be launched by SEAT S.A. in 2025. If so, shut up and take my money!
the reason the company decided to first apply the vision of a 100% electric vehicle to a racing car with an exciting look is that car racing is a key element of CUPRA's DNA.
"The CUPRA UrbanRebel Concept represents the brand's radical concept for an electric city car, to be launched in 2025. The racing concept gives a first glimpse of the design language of the future street-car and inspires the creation of the", explains the CEO of CUPRA, Wayne Griffiths.
"The urban electric car is a key strategic project not only for our company, but also for the Volkswagen Group, as our goal is to produce more than 500,000 urban electric vehicles per year in Martorell for the different Group brands. This car will make electromobility accessible to people".
The CUPRA UrbanRebel Concept is based on the design underpinnings of the 100% electric urban vehicle that will be launched by SEAT S.A. in 2025. The version will combine stunning design and dynamics and will be based on the Volkswagen Group's small MEB platform.
Gamification
"The CUPRA UrbanRebel Concept introduces the look of gamification to a race car, showcasing the company's radical concept of the urban electric model," said Jorge Diez, CUPRA Design Director. "Every contour line and sculpted surface in the design is brought to life by a color palette that uses kinetic particles to add motion to the surface as light shifts across it."
The CUPRA UrbanRebel Concept will be unveiled before the opening of the CUPRA City Garage in Munich during the Munich International Motor Show (MIA).
