The small EV market is about to explode — and leading the charge is the all-new CUPRA Raval. It’s one of a trio of compact electric cars from the VW Group (alongside the upcoming VW ID.Polo and Skoda Epiq), and it’s aiming to be the fun, edgy one of the bunch.
With up to 280 miles of range, 223hp, and a starting price of around £23,000, the Raval looks seriously tempting. But it’s not just about the numbers, this is CUPRA’s attempt to inject some real personality into the affordable EV space.
Think bold design, clever tech, proper buttons (yes, really), and a driving experience that actually puts a smile on your face.
We also size it up against its key rivals, the Kia EV2, Skoda Epiq, VW ID.Polo and Ford Puma Gen-E, as the battle for the best small electric car heats up.
So… is this the one you’ve been waiting for? Tell us in the comments: Raval, EV2, Epiq or ID.Polo?
