Written by Larissa F. Gasperi | Jun 12, 2025 3:36:31 AM

Looking for a sporty, stylish, and practical family SUV that stands out from the crowd? The all-new 2025 Cupra Terramar might be just what you’re after. This exciting new model from Volkswagen’s performance-focused Spanish brand, Cupra, is arriving in Australia in July 2025, and it’s already making waves for all the right reasons.

 

At Ausloans, we’re all about helping Aussies get into the right vehicle with the right finance – and the Cupra Terramar is one we think deserves your attention. Whether you're after fuel efficiency, performance, high-tech features or just an SUV that looks amazing, here's everything you need to know about Cupra's bold new flagship petrol SUV.

What Is the 2025 Cupra Terramar?

The Cupra Terramar is a mid-size SUV designed for families who love to drive something a bit more dynamic. It shares much of its engineering with the upcoming Audi Q3, but it's styled and tuned in true Cupra fashion – meaning sportier design, sharper handling, and loads of character.

It's bigger and boxier than the sleek Cupra Formentor, with more room in the back and boot, making it better suited for family life or those weekend getaways. Despite only being 7cm longer and 2cm wider than the Formentor, it feels more substantial thanks to a flatter, higher roofline and increased height.

Cupra Terramar 2025 Pricing in Australia

Here’s the full breakdown of the drive-away prices for each model (as of June 2025):

Model Powertrain Drive Price (Drive-Away)
Terramar S 1.5L Turbo Mild-Hybrid FWD $58,490
Terramar V 2.0L Turbo AWD $66,490
Terramar VZ 2.0L High-Output Turbo AWD $73,490
Terramar VZe (PHEV) 1.5L Turbo Plug-in Hybrid FWD TBC (2026)
 
Compared to rivals like the VW Tiguan or Mazda CX-5, the Terramar brings more tech, more style, and in many cases – better performance.
