Better soundproofed, more powerful, and feels more like a continuation of my hands and feet when driving — in other words, you feel like a single unit during the driving experience — but cramped for me at 6 ft 1 in to get in and out…

I wouldn't pay more than 40,000 for a 1.5 L engine — that's excessive.

CUPRA Raval

The CUPRA Raval is a compact electric hatch that mixes hot‑hatch intent with genuine everyday practicality, pairing an unusually roomy, flexible boot with a modern Android‑based infotainment that feels responsive. It drives in a composed, traction‑rich way that suits city and family life, though the steering leans toward assuredness rather than playfulness and some climate controls rely on touch sliders that can be fiddly on the move.
