CUPRA Raval Owner's Register - what model have you ordered/do you have?

Yeah there is a lot of misinformation flying around.
Not sure we can spec the heat pump over here, its not on the configurator, or at least not for the VZ extreme.

Yea this is another big misconception people also have, thinking you have to use the configurator. The UK has heat pump option too but it's not available when you use the configurator (neither is it in Finland), you have to put an order through your local dealer. Pricing and options and such be found here: https://www.cupraofficial.co.uk/price-lists/cupra-raval

It's a £800 extra. (would have looked better if this was included by default but VAG group doesn't seem to be too fussed about heat pumps in general...)

Got ya....

Its actually £960 with the vat!

Maybe if it was nearer £600 I'd consider it but as the car will be mainly short trips and overnight cheap charging, I'm not sure its worth it, unless I'm missing something?

That's too much imo especially for UK where it's less useful than up here north. In Finland it costs 900€ incl VAT (~£772), I was a bit 50/50 or maybe 55/45 or so towards picking it in the end but if I was from the UK I wouldn't pay £960 for it (at 600~£650 I'd consider).

Purely some unscientific predictions based on some tests I've seen I wouldn't be suprised if during the winter months in UK you might gain up to 8~11% or so range and in Finland I predict up to around ~15% benefit during winter but autumn/spring maybe 3~5% benefits. Sure it will also perhaps heat up a little quicker and people tend to think it's a bit more "pleasing" feel to the cabin perhaps if going by other brands but doubt its a night and day difference there, just subtle nuance.
