CUPRA Raval Plus 2026: price, range, and specs

© cupra-media.de

CUPRA has unveiled a more affordable version of its electric hatchback, the Raval. The new Plus grade gets a 135-hp motor, a lithium-iron-phosphate battery, and up to 327 km of WLTP range. Orders are already open, deliveries to European dealers begin in mid-September 2026, and the official price is €29,530.

The Raval Plus is powered by a front-mounted electric motor rated at 99 kW, or 135 hp. It pairs with a 37 kWh LFP battery. The claimed range reaches 327 km, so the version is aimed primarily at city and suburban driving.

The onboard AC charger is rated at 11 kW, while maximum DC charging power is 88 kW. According to CUPRA, a 10–80% charge takes around 23 minutes on a suitable charger under normal temperature conditions.

The larger Endurance grade uses a 211-hp motor and a 52 kWh battery. It can travel up to 446 km, and its fast-charging power reaches 105 kW. So the Plus’s main trade-off isn’t charging speed — it’s the shorter range: the gap between the two versions is roughly 119 km under WLTP.

How much you actually save compared with the higher grades isn’t fully clear yet. With the Plus starting at €29,530, and Spain’s current July promotion on the 52 kWh version working out to €29,938 with financing or €30,788 in cash, the gap is noticeably smaller than you might expect from a new entry-level version. We previously covered Spanish pricing for the Endurance and VZ, and under the current promotions those prices come close to the Plus’s starting price in places. CUPRA also offers its own discount through the Plan Auto+ scheme, bringing the Plus down to €25,000.

The Raval Plus gets a 12.9-inch infotainment screen and a 10.25-inch digital instrument cluster. Some equipment, however, comes bundled in packages. The Edge pack includes wireless phone charging, a digital key, and V2L external power. The Drive pack adds adaptive cruise control, lane-keep assist, remote parking, and a 360-degree camera. For audio and cabin ambience, there’s the Light & Sound pack with 12 Sennheiser speakers.

The closest rival remains the Renault 5 E-Tech. In Spain, the 120-hp Techno grade currently costs from €26,050 under a July promotion. It runs a 40 kWh battery, with WLTP range reaching 312 km for the corresponding versions. Renault undercuts CUPRA’s starting price by nearly €3,500, so the Raval Plus will have to compete on more than just design — equipment, charging, and chassis tuning all matter too.

Above it sits the 226-hp Raval VZ. It gets adaptive DCC Sport suspension, an electronic limited-slip differential, 19-inch wheels, and around 400 km of range. That’s no longer the economical city version — it’s the family’s most performance-focused trim.

The lineup will later be joined by a base Raval with a 116-hp motor and the same LFP battery. The indicative price is around €26,000. The family is built at the Martorell plant, alongside other compact EVs from the Volkswagen Group.

The Raval Plus looks like the right call for anyone happy with 327 km of rated range who doesn’t need the 211-hp Endurance. But the real savings versus the higher grades depend on which promotion and government incentive apply at the time — and at current prices, the gap is noticeably smaller than the sticker prices alone would suggest.
