Cupra electric lease

Cupra electric lease deals UK

There isn't enough choice of electric cars for me or my company car drivers ... a statement now rarely issued by even the toughest of proponents to battery vehicles. Cupra are perhaps one of the biggest examples of what is possible when a manufacturer does invest in electrification and recognises the opportunity within the UK's automotive industry.

Cupra, a sub-brand of Seat, produces high-performance and aesthetically distinctive vehicles. What is so unique about Cupra is that it was once nothing more than a motorsport-type package which a driver would consider adding to their Seat Leon or Ateca if they wanted a quicker and more performance-led experience.

However, the Cupra badge became so popular that there was a decision to create its own unique class of vehicles separate to Seat (and Skoda / VW). While the VW group are producing similar vehicles amongst their individual brands, there is nothing quite like the Cupra brand and this is very much aiming to be one of the most cost-effective performance EVs in the UK. Who said a hot hatch EV wouldn’t be made available?

Why choose to lease a Cupra electric

The benefit of choosing a Cupra EV to lease is that personal and business lease customers do have the comfort that the battery tech, driving style and build quality matches that of one of the leading German car manufacturers - Volkswagen. And VW are not new to the zero-emission project either, having produced some of the best electric cars for some years. VW are now at their next stage of EV development, which translates to better battery range, quicker charging times but with the fun and excitement you expect from a modern EV.

There is no doubt that any of the VW Group EVs will represent anything other than value for money when it comes to your next new electric car. However, for those customers wanting a little more in terms of body style, design and finish, the Cupra should form part of the list. Looking at the Cupra Leon, Ateca and Formentor, you can see the direction of electrification for this manufacturer.

Is a Cupra electric right for me?

As at today, there has only been one confirmed electric product for the Cupra brand - the Born (which was renamed after being launched as the "El Born"). In effect, the e-car lease customer has the ability to enjoy a repurposed VW ID.3 but with a performance aspect and aggressive body styling. While the VW may be the perfect affordable EV for company car drivers, the Cupra will almost certainly be a key seller in the PCH market, in particular for some of the younger drivers making the transition to battery electric vehicles. While the Born will not be "cheap", this will still be one of the mid-range affordable hatchbacks.

However, just because the Cupra may meet your budget and aesthetic requirements, it’s still important to carry out the necessary research and due diligence which you would expect with any electric car. Our “Living with …” tools set out some of key facets relating to battery size, efficiency, range and charging speeds, all of which help you, or the business, understand if this zero-emission option is the one to select.

How expensive is a Cupra electric to lease?

The Cupra brand is not a luxury / prestige one but, at the same time, this not going to be the cheapest EV to lease in the UK. As is evident from the Born, these vehicles will be incredibly popular with a variety of our e-car lease customers. And these EVs are not overpriced with the Born hatch costing anywhere between £30,000 - £43,000, depending on the model and battery you select. This could equate to £300 - £500 per month leasing deals. Expect an SUV, similar to the Formentor, to cost a little more. However, we do encourage our PCH and BCH clients to consider more than just the monthly finance exposure. EVs allow you to look at Whole of Life costs more prudently, for example fuel, maintenance and / or insurance savings. This is without the 2% BiK the Cupra will have which equates to a cheap company car tax bill.
