Snows’ Seat and Cupra dealership in Southampton got the opportunity to showcase the brand-new all-electric Cupra Tavascan for the first time in the UK.
This medium-sized family SUV, capable of travelling up to 352 miles on a single charge, was unveiled at the dealership on Second Avenue, Millbrook, as part of an exclusive, invitation-only three-day event.
In addition to the Tavascan, guests had the opportunity to explore the latest models in the Cupra range, including the Cupra Formentor SUV and Cupra Leon hatchback, with test-drive opportunities available.
The event also celebrated the appointment of Fareham-based businesswoman Imali Chislett as Snows’ new Motability Ambassador for the Cupra and Seat brands.
Imali, who uses a wheelchair due to a range of health issues, is a loyal customer of the Snows Motability scheme and recently acquired a Seat Ateca.
“I’m very excited about my new role,” she said. “I’ll be trying to raise awareness in respect of the disability narrative and explain how great these new models are for different people’s requirements.”
The event saw strong attendance from both retail and fleet customers, with refreshments and prize giveaways, including afternoon tea at The Nici in Bournemouth and a collection of six bottles of wine.
Chris Power, Snows’ franchise manager for Seat and Cupra, commented on the success of the event: “We have been blown away by the interest in the Cupra brand and Tavascan in particular.
“It’s a stunning vehicle and is going to be a real game-changer. The build quality is second to none, and the interior is a lovely place to be. We’re sure it will be hugely popular with customers old and new.”
Snows Motor Group operates three Seat and Cupra dealerships in Southampton, Poole, and Portsmouth.
