WHILE ALL CUPRA models are named after places in the brand’s Spanish homeland, it’s usually hard to see why the specific location was picked; if we were told someone in the marketing department had simply thrown a dart at a map of the country, we’d believe it, but the new Cupra Tavascan is an exception.
The village of Tavascan is best known for using its lakes to produce green energy, and that was always going to make it a tempting choice when Cupra sought a name for its first electric SUV. But does the car itself hold as much appeal for buyers of this sort of vehicle?
