V1 on 18's - ride quality ?

[Justa]

Hi all

Just after some advice on the Raval V1 ride quality ?

Most dealers only seem to have the V2 LE or VZ Extreme as demo cars so I haven't been able to test the V1 - Cupra Nottingham were good enough to lend me a VZ Extreme for the weekend and I really liked it although even with the adaptive dampers in the most comfortable setting the ride was just about as firm as I would like - how does the V1 with its 18" wheels and no DCC compare ?

We currently have a Cupra Ateca 1.5 on lease but its going back early next year and are looking at the Raval to replace it - the ride on the Ateca is firm but comfortable enough for us...

Thanks in advance

@jezyg ’s post #6 in the topic at the link below comments on ride quality of their V1 on 18” alloys compared to a V2 LE on 19’s.

Raval V1 52 kWh

Picked up my Raval V1 from Barlow Motor on Saturday, from the press car I had the software does seem to be less buggy and certainly an improvement mile kWh at 4.7, on a 50 mile journey, having the more efficient 18" wheels with Hankook ION EV helps too. As I found with V2 Launch Edition...

I have a V1 as SRGTD linked to my post. But 18" wheels give a much more complaint ride, still firm but not hard either and are much better than 19" ride wise. I personally think they are nicer looking wheels and also improve range.
