The Cupra Terramar mid-size SUV has officially landed in Australia, with petrol and mild-hybrid power available at launch and a plug-in hybrid (PHEV) version not too far behind.
Based on the Volkswagen Group’s MQB evo modular architecture, the Terramar is closely related to the new VW Tiguan and Audi Q3, but with a greater focus on driver engagement according to the Barcelona-based brand.
Pricing starts from $53,990 plus on-road costs or $58,490 drive-away. That’s dearer than its Tiguan cousin, but the Terramar boasts fuel-saving 48V mild-hybrid tech which the Volkswagen brand still hasn’t brought to Australia.
A 200kW e-Hybrid PHEV with over 100km of driving range is also in the wings, scheduled to land in November.
