Cupra continues to tease its first all-electric
vehicle by showing us the first interior photo of the concept that will debut
at the Frankfurt Motor Show next month. The
as-yet-unnamed design study features a driver-focused cabin that also offers
comfort for all occupants. The image reveals a modern dashboard that features a
fully digital instrument panel and a multifunction sports steering wheel
wrapped in Alcantara that features an illuminated Cupra logo at the center.
We can also spot details including the carbon fiber
and copper-colored trim on the door panels, carbon fiber mirror caps, as well
as an intriguing ambient lighting system that projects tiny dots on the door
panel.
Cupra does not reveal much else but says the car’s
sculptured exterior lines are mirrored in its interior which mixes “material
and technological concepts with openness and focus to create a cabin that
provides the perfect balance between driver orientation and passenger comfort.” The “high-end, lightweight cabin”
features contrasting colors and structural carbon, as well as “the ability to
switch its personality to meet the needs of whoever is cocooned inside.”
Envisioned as a high-performance EV concept, the
vehicle is said to combine “the silhouette of a four-door crossover, with the
presence of an SUV and the sleekness of a sports coupe.” We therefore expect it
to adopt the shape of a coupe SUV.
Cupra’s EV concept will be unveiled online on
September 2 ahead of its public world debut at the Frankfurt Motor Show later
that month.
