2025 Cupra Terramar

A little over two years ago, Cupra started the story of the compact crossover SUV, Terramar, and now it is known that the car will debut on September 3rd.

Terramar is named after a former track in the small village of Rocamar near Sitges in Barcelona. It is a combination of emotions and performance, but also a hero of the new era, as the company says.

It will be equipped with an aerodynamic body, an aggressive front mask where the daytime running lights stand out, sporty rear subs and a thin light line, and a bumper with an integrated diffuser. Cupra didn’t say much about the new model, but hinted that it will have a “bold look full of confidence”, as well as the next generation of eHybrid technology.

When information about the Cupra Terramar appeared, many said that it would be powered by an ICE but also by a new generation of plug-in hybrid engines with an electric range of about 100 kilometers. The company did not disclose details, so more information is expected after the official presentation.
