Cupra's first fully electric SUV is set to arrive here in December (in time for Christmas).

At launch, Tavascan will be available in 250kW VZ dual-motor all-wheel and 210kW Endurance rear-drive configurations.

Designed and developed in Barcelona, Tavascan is produced at the Volkswagen Group’s Anhui factory in China, a state-of-the-art innovation hub for e-mobility.

Benefitting from an advanced homologation timeline and closer proximity to its production base, Tavascan will be delivered to Australian customers from early December, in-line with European delivery dates.

Cupra's Ben Wilks said the Tavascan SUV is a milestone on the brand’s battery electrification journey, which commenced with the Born hatchback in 2023.

“The Tavascan takes Cupra’s BEV offer into the SUV segment with a vehicle that’s designed to be dramatic and emotional from the ground up,” he said.

“With its progressive and emotional approach to the SUV coupe segment, head-turning exterior lighting, a uniquely-CUPRA interior, and an all-new immersive sound system from Sennheiser, the Tavascan elevates the all-electric SUV coupe to new heights.

"Boasting impressive performance figures and dynamic driving experience, it’s every bit as great behind the wheel as it is to look at.”

Tavascan is Cupra's second fully electric model after Born
