Currently reading: Cupra to showcase future of interior design with radical concept

Spanish brand will reveal show car at Munich motor show in September

Cupra will showcase its future design language with a new concept car at the 2025 Munich motor show.

To be unveiled on 8 September, the show car is expected to focus heavily on the future of Cupra’s interior design.

The preview picture released by the brand shows a radical new cabin similar to that of the DarkRebel concept shown in 2023. It includes a yoke-like wheel, chunky central spine similar to the electric Tavascan, and what appear to be racing seats.

The brand said the concept will blend “human and machine, where the driving experience and emotions reach their fullest expression”, emphasising a focus on interior design.

Cupra has revealed little else about the concept, but it is also expected to show the next step in the Spanish firm's exterior design language.

The concept follows a major range-wide redesign last year in which the entire line-up was refreshed to bring parity between the new electric cars and older combustion models. The revamp mainly focused on the front end and included a prominent beak, a broader grille and triangular LED lights

The show car will be revealed alongside a camouflaged production version of the new Raval – Cupra’s Volkswagen ID 2 twin. The Raval will arrive in 2026 as the brand’s new entry-level model and a rival to the Renault 5. It is expected to be priced at around £25,000.

That second paragraph is where I stopped reading,so much hype and expression? What's that supposed to mean?, shouldn't it be ease of operation, no having a computer degree to drive the car.
