Cupra has unveiled a 670bhp electric touring car. You may know that Seat has separated Cupra off as a sub-brand, and sceptics of the approach may well be won over by a car as boisterous and exciting as this. It"s described as the first electric touring car in the world though you could argue the Tesla Model S racecar is one of those too and with peak power that rivals a Ferrari 488 GTB, and a constant 402bhp that"s over and above what Seat"s previous Leon touring cars have made. Oddly this Cupra e-Racer omits any Leon branding perhaps it"s part of the de-Seatisation of the brand but it"s very clearly based on the car that"s helped build the company"s hot hatch and touring car heritage.
