The CUPRA Raval is the brand's compact urban electric car, offering up to 277 miles of range and, in VZ form, 225PS with a 0-62mph time of 6.8 seconds. Discover checked, prepared used Raval models with Vertu as they reach the market, each inspected including its battery system before sale.
The Raval is CUPRA's smallest and most affordable electric car, a compact urban EV designed to bring the brand's rebellious style to the city. Named after a Barcelona neighbourhood, it pairs a bold, sharply detailed design with a fully electric drivetrain, aimed squarely at drivers who want character in a small, easy-to-live-with package.
As a brand-new model, the Raval is only just reaching the roads, so used examples will be limited for now and will grow over time as early cars come back to market. When they do, buying used will let someone else absorb the initial depreciation on an already keenly priced EV.
Any remaining manufacturer warranty transfers to you as the new keeper, and every Raval at Vertu is prepared and checked, battery system included, before it reaches the forecourt. For buyers wanting a stylish, city-friendly electric car, the Raval is one to watch on the used market.
Yes, for drivers after a compact EV that stands out from the small-car crowd. Despite its city focus, the Raval offers usable range and genuine pace across its line-up, with CUPRA's performance instincts evident throughout.
Range reaches up to 277 miles on the 52kWh battery, strong for a car of this size, while the flagship VZ produces 225PS and covers 0-62mph in 6.8 seconds, quick for a compact electric car. A smaller 37kWh entry version, badged Origin, is anticipated to follow with a focus on efficiency and value.
Every used Raval sold by Vertu is checked before it reaches the forecourt as part of our used car preparation process, covering no outstanding finance, no history as a taxi, and no salvage or write-off record. With that preparation and any remaining warranty, a used Raval is a low-risk route into electric city motoring.
The Raval suits several kinds of city-focused buyer. The table below pairs four of them with the version that fits best.
| Buyer Type | Why the Raval Fits |
|---|---|
| City drivers going electric | A compact 4,046mm length and up to 277 miles of range make the Raval easy to park and live with, with zero tailpipe emissions whilst driving. |
| Style-led first-time EV owners | Flush illuminated door handles, 3D Infinity rear lights and bold colours give the Raval real presence for a small car. |
| Keen drivers wanting a warm EV | The VZ produces 225PS and covers 0-62mph in 6.8 seconds, with the VZ Extreme adding an adaptive DCC chassis. |
| Tech-focused buyers | Travel Assist 3.0, a Sennheiser sound system and a Mobile Digital Key bring big-car technology to a compact EV. |
The Raval's cabin brings CUPRA's design language to the small-car class, with bucket seats, a digital cockpit and the Smartlight Next Gen system that pairs LED lighting with the car's audio for a distinctive interior atmosphere. A Sennheiser immersive sound system and a panoramic sunroof feature higher up the range.
For a compact car it is well packaged, with a 441-litre boot and five seats, and it carries a strong safety focus, including lateral and central airbags integrated into the seats. The My CUPRA app handles remote functions and charging, and a Mobile Digital Key lets you lock and start the car with a smartphone.
Charging runs through a home wallbox or public rapid charger, with the 52kWh battery taking on charge from 10 to 80% in around 24 minutes at up to 105kW. Once a Raval reaches Vertu it is inspected and prepared by our technicians before sale, and servicing it through Vertu's CUPRA-trained colleagues helps protect any warranty still in place, including the battery cover.
The Raval range climbs from V1 through V2 and its Launch Edition to the performance VZ and VZ Extreme, with a smaller-battery Origin version anticipated to follow. The table below outlines the ladder and what each adds.
These details reflect the launch 2026 model-year specification. As a brand-new model, used examples will closely match this for now, but specification can change year to year, so confirm the details of any specific car with your local dealership.

| V1 | The entry grade, with 18-inch Defier alloys, Pulse Sport seats, heated front seats and up to 275 miles of range. |
