Say hello to the Tindaya

Discovering the NEW Cupra Tindaya: Performance meets Innovation

Taking the title of the newest kid on the block, the Tindaya, soon to be Cupra’s latest addition, is set to turn heads when this explosive model is released - that, something we are not aware of just now. Having been first announced to be revealed at the recent IAA Motability (Munich Motor Show), as it stands the Tindaya is a concept show-car, and there is currently no further information regarding its future status, but it is expected to eventually be turned into production.

In this blog, we will be uncovering what we already know about the Cupra Tindaya, analysing Cupra’s latest concept car!

The Tindaya’s Interior & Exterior

Inside, Cupra’s new show-car features a futuristic cabin layout with an array of sustainable materials, including intuitive digital interfaces, and a very strong emphasis on comfort and bold design, which in turn delivers great innovation from the car. While still a show car, the Tindaya signals the brand’s clear direction towards an emotional and electrified experience for drivers that massively stand-out from mainstream cars.

Exuding a bold expression of the future with the futuristic design, fused with aerodynamic efficiency. Its sculptured and silhouetted design features a clean look and flowing lines that emphasise movement. Another exciting attribute of the Tindaya is that is boasts great energy which is only bolstered by the car’s sharp edges and geometric accents - both of which give it a distinct modernity and aggressive stance. The word aggressive has been one used to describe many of the brands models - this, something that is a running theme throughout Cupra’s other cars.

The front fascia of the car is dominated by a sleek, illuminated Cupra logo and ultra-slim LED headlights that blend seamlessly into the bodywork, allowing for a sense of precision and intent. The high beltline, muscular wheel arches, and large aerodynamic wheels add sporty, performance-orientated feel, while copper detailing and matte finishes reflect Cupra’s signature styling. Every element of the Tindaya’s exterior is carefully crafted to enhance both aesthetics and performance, positioning it as a standout electric SUV in both form and function.

Sustainability, Efficiency and Pricing

The Tindaya Concept from Cupra places sustainability and efficiency at the core of its design, reflecting the brand’s commitment to a cleaner, more responsible future of mobility. Built on a fully electric platform, the Tindaya is expected to deliver zero-emissions driving, with energy-efficient systems and regenerative braking, helping to maximise range. The cabin features eco-conscious materials such as recycled fabrics and responsibly sourced trims. All of these things together, help to blend premium aesthetics with environmental responsibility. However, exact efficiency figures and battery specifications haven’t been disclosed - the Tindaya is designed to compete with the leading electric SUVs in terms of range and performance.

As a concept car, pricing has not been officially announced, and it’s not yet confirmed for production. However, if bought to the market, it would likely sit at the higher end of Cupra’s lineup, reflecting its premium positioning, advanced technology and sustainable philosophy.

Release Date - Is it coming soon?

Currently, the Tindaya doesn’t have a release date, as stated it is classified as a show-car at the moment. Officially unveiled at IAA Motability 2025 in Munich on the 8th September, Cupra emphasised that the Tindaya’s show-car status embodies the future design language. At the show in Munich, Cupra CEO Markus Haupt said “El Cupra Tindaya showcar, va a convertise en realidad,” which rougly translates to “The Cupra Tindaya showcar is going to become reality.” Seemingly though, this was a statement of intent rather than a confirmation of anything concrete.

There is no confirmed date announced for when, or if the Tindaya will be produced for sale. As far as sources go, it remains a concept car, for now. The brand hasn’t confirmed whether it will be moved into a future production, or if the model will launch. Also, with no details of pricing, powertrain specs or availability geographically, we are all left guessing. As soon as we get any information on it, we will source it to you!

Final Thoughts

Since the Tindaya is presented as a vision piece, conceptually it likely influences design tech for future Cupra models. However, converting from concept, production often takes a good few years, so any production for the Tindaya (if it happens) would likely be a way off - and by that it could be close to two or three years.

The fact that Cupra’s CEO expressed that the concept car would become reality suggests a strong internal interest / intent in turning the Tindaya into something more tangible. With the recent announcement that the Cupra Raval is set to premiere in March 2026, it is likely that the Tindaya won’t precede that due to the brand seemingly having more near-term models already queued. With the Tindaya more than a dream and ambition, it is expected that we will one day, see the Tindaya.
