CUPRA adds new Tavascan Black Edition to the range

[Syphon]

CUPRA has revealed a new Black Edition version of the Tavascan, giving its all-electric SUV coupé a darker and more aggressive look inside and out.



The new model builds on the Tavascan’s already bold design with a series of black styling details, while also tying in with CUPRA’s growing Black Edition line-up.

The biggest change is visual. Midnight Black is the signature finish for the new edition, although CUPRA says the package will also be available with the wider exterior colour range.



Across the outside, the Tavascan Black Edition gets black front bumper grilles, black mirror caps and darker lower body cladding. Buyers will also be able to choose between 20-inch HECKLA and 21-inch KATLA matt black alloy wheels, which help give the car an even stronger stance.



Inside, the same theme continues. The dashboard spine and door mouldings get Fusion Metal detailing, while black trim finishes across the cabin give it a more technical and...

Hi all, new poster here...

I’m currently very close to ordering a MY26 Tavascan V2, but have just come across the Black Edition and it’s exactly the sort of spec/appearance we’d go for.

I can see that CUPRA announced it in June, with production due to begin this summer, but I still can’t find anything confirming UK ordering, pricing or expected delivery dates.

I’ve asked a couple of UK CUPRA dealers today to check their internal systems, but wondered if anyone here - particularly anyone with dealer/CUPRA connections - has heard anything about whether it’s definitely coming to the UK?

Even an indication of UK order-book timing or likely first deliveries would be really useful, as I need to decide whether it's worth holding off on the V2 I've currently got lined up.

Thanks!

Hi and welcome. It may be that it's not coming to the UK, not all the models do and due to our international reach we sometimes publish. I've just asked one of our HQ contacts to see if we can get a definitive answer for you.

Thanks Syphon, really appreciate you asking your HQ contact.

I’ve done a bit more digging since posting and it looks like the Black Edition is now actually appearing in other European markets. Germany is listing a Tavascan VZ Black Edition as a model, and in Spain CUPRA announced that orders had opened for the updated range including the Black Edition.

So it definitely seems to have moved beyond the original June announcement and into the European rollout, it’s just the UK position that remains a mystery!

I’ve also emailed CUPRA UK directly this morning asking specifically whether it’s planned for the UK, rather than just asking about current dealer stock.

If your HQ contact can get any indication either way, that would be hugely appreciated. I’m ready to commit to a three-year lease now, but I know I’ll kick myself if I order the standard V2 and the Black Edition appears here a few months later!

Thanks again for looking into it.

No worries, will let you know when I hear, also let us know how you get on.
