CUPRA overview

CUPRA (pronounced KOO – pruh) began its journey in 1985 as SEAT Sport. The brand spearheaded SEAT's rally championship endeavours. CUPRA derives its name from the phrase ‘Cup Racing’. Establishing itself in both rallying and touring car racing. Soon it was also developing high-performance versions of SEAT road cars. These included the Leon CUPRA and Ibiza CUPRA.

  

In 2018 it became a standalone brand, marking a significant shift in both its own role and that of SEAT. The first vehicle to bear the marque’s bronze emblem was the CUPRA Ateca. It was still based on the SEAT model but carried plenty of its own styling and badging. Later came two all-new vehicles: the Formentor and the Born.

  

The brand’s focus has been on performance and racing vehicles since its launch. The manufacturer also benefits from the associated reputation of engineering quality of Volkswagen. CUPRA participates in electric motorsport championships. This demonstrates its commitment to innovation and sustainability in high-performance vehicles. The road-going lineup is becoming green too. CUPRA has produced plug-in hybrid versions of the Leon, Leon Estate and Formentor. They have also released the all-electric Born.

  

In September 2023 Volkswagen Group announced that the CUPRA name would replace SEAT. The group would repurpose the SEAT moniker.
