The News

The new Cupra Tindaya concept has been teased for the first time ahead of its unveiling at the Munich motor show on September 8 when it will reveal the next chapter of the VW-owned Spanish performance brand's design language.

The Key Details

  • Cupra Tindaya concept set for September 8 reveal at the Munich motor show
  • Primed to reveal the brand’s latest chassis tech
  • Could spin-off a small SUV related to the inbound Raval EV

The Finer Details

Following on from a recent tease of a radical interior design, Cupra says its new Tindaya concept will represent its vision and future design language when it’s unwrapped on September 8.

The singular teaser image released overnight shows carbon-fibre body panelling and paint inspired by the brand’s trademark rose gold/copper hue, with the concept primed to deliver “the maximum expression of driver focus, while offering a unique experience”, in turn “enhancing the driver’s emotions”.

There’s no word yet on whether the Tindaya will spin-off a real car, but the new model could take the shape of a small all-electric SUV spun-off the inbound 2026 Cupra Raval.

The Spanish brand has already launched the battery-powered Tavascan Down Under as well as the mid-size petrol and plug-in hybrid Terramar.

The Road Ahead

Cupra will roll out its facelifted Leon range in October, including the Sportstourer wagon that will bag a 200kW plug-in hybrid power for the first time.

In 2026, the updated version of the brand’s top-selling Formentor arrives, followed shortly after by the all-electric 240kW Born VZ hot hatch.
