Milton Keynes, 1 August 2025 – CUPRA UK has unveiled a compelling new incentive to support electric vehicle buyers: a £1,500 Grant Guarantee offered exclusively throughout August 2025 on selected CUPRA Born models. The initiative gives customers the opportunity to lock in savings ahead of the government’s finalisation of its newly announced Electric Car Grant.
Available from 1 August to 31 August, the Grant Guarantee applies to new CUPRA Born vehicles ordered within the promotional window, with delivery scheduled from 1 September 2025, aligning with the arrival of the new ‘75’ registration plate.
This early access to funding ensures buyers benefit immediately from lower pricing—independent of when official eligibility criteria for the government grant are confirmed.
Eligible CUPRA Born Models
The Grant Guarantee spans across the highly popular CUPRA Born range, including the V1, V2 and V3 variants, with multiple battery configurations available:
- CUPRA Born V1 – 59 kWh & 79 kWh
- CUPRA Born V2 – 59 kWh & 79 kWh
- CUPRA Born V3 – 59 kWh, 77 kWh & 79 kWh
This flexible coverage ensures a broad spectrum of customers—from daily commuters to long-range EV enthusiasts—can benefit from the offer regardless of their driving preferences or range needs.
Making Electric Driving More Accessible
Marcus Gossen, Managing Director of SEAT CUPRA UK, said:
“This is a great opportunity for customers to benefit from CUPRA UK’s £1,500 Grant Guarantee. We want to ensure that EVs are accessible to as many people as possible, so by offering this grant early on our CUPRA Born models, we’re allowing everybody to take advantage. We welcome the government’s announcement of an electric car grant, and we’re keen for everybody to be able to make the most of electric motoring as early as possible.”
The CUPRA Born, the brand’s first fully electric vehicle, has carved a strong reputation in the UK for delivering an exceptional driving experience. It has received numerous accolades, including:
- What Car? Best Small Electric Car to Drive – 2022 through 2025
- Autocar’s Best Electric Car – 2024
- Auto Trader New Car Awards: Most Fun to Drive – 2025
With its striking design, driver-focused engineering, and eco-conscious performance, the Born has quickly become a benchmark in the compact EV segment.
How to Take Advantage
To benefit from the Grant Guarantee, customers must place an order for an eligible CUPRA Born model between 1–31 August 2025 and take delivery from 1 September 2025 onwards. The £1,500 grant is applied directly to the vehicle price at the point of sale via participating CUPRA Retailers.
