Cupra Debuts Tindaya Concept at IAA Munich With SSP Range-Extender Powertrain

The study signals a move toward SSP-based range‑extender tech with a focus on larger, driver‑focused models.

Overview

  • The 4.72-meter crossover was revealed as a world premiere in Munich, presenting Cupra’s latest design direction and proportions.
  • The concept sits on Volkswagen Group’s forthcoming SSP platform, according to Cupra’s presentation.
  • The range‑extender layout combines dual electric motors rated at 365 kW (496 PS) with a 1.5‑liter TSI used solely as a generator.
  • Cupra cites about 300 km of battery‑only driving and a total range above 1,000 km, with a claimed 0–100 km/h time of 4.1 seconds.
  • The driver‑centric cabin features a yoke‑style control, a curved display and a central “Jewel” prism, while recycled panels and reported linen‑fiber composites appear on the body; media note a near‑series impression but no confirmed production specs or timing.
