The ABT-treated Raval VZ is on sale in Spain from €39,310. A €40,410 Head version adds upgraded cabin equipment while both retain the 226 hp powertrain and 386 km stated range.

The ABT edition keeps the Raval VZ’s 226 hp output and 290 Nm of torque. Its battery is 51.5 kWh. The car is now on sale in Spain from €39,310, with a second version priced at €40,410. The Raval VZ is CUPRA’s top version, with a stated range of about 386 kilometres; another published figure puts it at around 387 kilometres.

The Raval has recorded more than 51,000 sales since its launch in April, giving it the best debut in Cupra’s history. CUPRA separately reported more than 51,000 orders for the model since its April 2026 market launch, calling it the best commercial debut in the brand’s history and saying the figure was more than double its initial plans. By mid-October, about 15,000 cars had been delivered, and CUPRA was targeting 100,000 units the following year. In Spain, the model recorded 1,043 registrations from April to September 2026, including 478 in June. A separate report covered plans for the Tenerife Triumph club meet, a very different kind of motoring story.

CUPRA presented the CUSTOM CUPRA by ABT package at the Paris Motor Show on 15 October 2026, extending its collaboration with German tuner ABT after earlier projects for the Leon and Formentor. The Raval package includes dedicated front and rear splitters alongside aerodynamic add-ons. A large roof spoiler carries the ABT emblem. New 19-inch wheels and bumper mouldings complete the changes, and the Cupra badge is darkened. The planned fitment is for selected Raval versions.

The more expensive VZ Custom Cupra by ABT Head adds a revised cabin. Its Cup Bucket Ahead front seats have electric adjustment and heating. Memory is included. The version also gets exclusive upholstery and a different steering wheel; CUPRA revised the dashboard details as well. CUPRA planned to offer the components through its authorised dealer network for new orders as well as cars already delivered.

Both versions remain mechanically based on the Raval VZ. The car sits 15 millimetres lower than other models in the Group and has tracks that are 10 millimetres wider. DCC Sport suspension provides 15 damping settings. Cupra says the 51.5 kWh battery gives the car a range of 386 kilometres. The Raval range also includes the 211 hp Dynamic version, while the VZ Extreme develops 226 hp.

Cupra installs the Custom Cupra by ABT components at its development and competition centre, now known as the Cupra Racing Factory. The site was previously Seat Sport. The ABT package builds on the Raval’s strong early demand: CUPRA has said it expects the model to become its best-selling car and is targeting 100,000 units for the following year.
