🏁 Test-drive the new CUPRA Raval in Romania and you could win a trip to Barcelona or a week with the car 👉 https://oferte.cupraofficial.ro/follow-the-r/
Cupra Raval VZ 2026 night test drive: the 226 HP VZ on dark, wet roads to test its Matrix LED headlamps, the automatic high beam and the full-width rear light bar. The welcome animations, the illuminated door handles and the dashboard projector that lights up the doors and changes colour with each drive mode. On the road, comfort against Cupra mode with the 15-step DCC dampers and the front differential, then launch mode and its light animation.
