SEAT and Cupra are approaching the final phase of transformation which will culminate in the launch of theCupra Raval, the first 100 per cent electric vehicle produced in Martorell.

The Spanish company is preparing for the series production of the first model in thefamily of urban electric carsthat theVolkswagen Group's Brand Group Corewill produce in Spain.

As part of its transformation, the company has adapted an area of around 160,000 square metres at its Martorell plant for the production of electric vehicles, renovating Production Line 1, incorporating 1,000 new robots in the bodywork phase and installing 60 component stamping dies, including the new PXL press

Added to this is the recent launch of the 600-metre automated bridge connecting the battery system assembly plant, inaugurated in December, with Line 1 of the assembly workshop. This system, located at a height of five meters, ensures a continuous and efficient flow of batteries directly to the production line.

SEAT and Cupra leads the cluster for the development of the family of urban electric cars for the Volkswagen Group's Brand Group Core, which includes four models from three different brands, all manufactured in Spain - the Cupra Raval and Volkswagen ID. Polo at the Martorell factory, and the Skoda Epiq and Volkswagen ID. Cross at the Volkswagen Navarra facilities.

The Cupra Raval will be the first model in this family to hit the roads. Its launch marks the beginning of a new era for the brand and the birth of a vehicle segment that will redefine the rules of electrification.
