The CUPRA Terramar brings together the possibilities of combustion and electrification to deliver a range of powertrain options that give the driver a choice of performance that suits their requirements.
Five different powertrains across three different technologies provide several options and give the CUPRA Terramar strong driving dynamics. TSI (petrol), eTSI (mild hybrid), and the new generation of plug-in hybrid (eHybrid) engines produce from 150PS to 272PS.
CUPRA Terramar is exclusively equipped with a DSG dual-shift gearbox, no matter the powertrain option.
eTSI (mild hybrid)
The entry to the CUPRA Terramar line-up is the mild hybrid (eTSI) unit, injecting the efficiency of 48V mild-hybrid technology with the 1.5 litre 150PS (110kW) petrol engine. Mated exclusively in combination with the 7-speed DSG transmission, it’s a combination that delivers high efficiency.
The system uses a 48V starter-generator and 48V lithium-ion battery setup, delivering greater control over powertrain, giving the CUPRA Terramar the ability to coast with the engine switched off during some driving scenarios, recover energy under braking and supporting the engine with some electric assistance.
TSI (petrol)
Performance is central to the two 2.0 litre TSI petrol engine options available.
The first one, with an output of 204PS (150kW), is linked to a 7-speed DSG dual-clutch transmission and all-wheel drive (4Drive) allowing the CUPRA Terramar to optimise the transfer of power to the road.
The second TSI unit pushes up the power output and is available in the CUPRA Terramar VZ variant. VZ stands for Veloz in Spanish, meaning quick or fast, a seamless way to describe the most powerful versions the CUPRA range.
The CUPRA Terramar VZ’s unit delivers 265PS (195kW), also linked to a 7-speed DSG gearbox and all-wheel drive (4Drive), giving it the purest of performance and dynamics.
eHybrid (plug-in hybrid)
The CUPRA Terramar embraces electrification, using it to stimulate a new sensation, taking the driver further. The new generation plug-in hybrid powertrain, boosts performance and delivers a wide electric-only range, proving once again that electrification and performance are a perfect match.
The new CUPRA Terramar houses two next generation eHybrid options: 204PS (150kW) and a 272PS (200kW) VZ version.
The 1.5 TSI engine is linked to an electric motor combined with a large battery pack that offers 19,7kWh (net) capacity. It means the new CUPRA Terramar can travel for more than 100km on a single charge – the perfect balance for eco-conscious journeys. The battery is fast charge compatible at up to 50kW (DC charge) while on the road, or at home using a 11kW wallbox.
