Cupra

Cupra has an interesting history as a brand of car – particularly in terms of how short that history is. It was developed as a brand by Volkswagen in 1996, but it only became its own individual brand in 2018.

What kind of cars does Cupra produce?

If you’ve got a Cupra, you’ll know this brand is all about looking and feeling sporty. Today, you can get hybrid vehicles from Cupra or all-electric ones. You can drive their compact Cupra Born or upgrade to the Cupra Formentor, which is their popular SUV model. The Leon model provides another compact alternative for the market, too.

What brand of tyres are new Cupra cars fitted with?

The OEM (or Original Equipment Manufacturer) will depend on which car you drive and how old it is. That said, many Cupra models are originally fitted with Michelin tyres. You may also find other original models fitted with tyres bearing the logos of Bridgestone or Goodyear.

How do I know which tyres to buy for my Cupra?

Always check the information provided on the tyres themselves or inside your owner’s manual. Even if you have previously had another Cupra vehicle, you can’t be certain that your current model will have identical tyres. A lot will depend on whether you have an EV or hybrid, as those require reinforced tyres to cope with the extra weight.

You can also find differences between the same models produced in different years, or alternatively, different versions of the same model. So, whatever Cupra model you’re driving, check the tyres to find the information you require when buying new ones.

What is the correct tyre pressure for a Cupra?

There are two things you must check when determining the tyre pressure for your Cupra. Firstly, you must know the exact tyres fitted to that vehicle. Secondly, you must know the model details. As we already noted, different iterations of the same Cupra model can require different tyres.

You will find all the relevant details on the tyres themselves, so you can check the tyre wall to find out what you need to buy. Alternatively, grab your owner’s manual – you should find everything you need to know in there.
