I think someone else nailed it. if the AWD version was on the scheme i would go IONIQ 5 all day. everything is opinion but i find there something magic about a box on wheels that can blow away sports cars. my issue with most of Cupra is that they look like they will destroy every other car on the road due to there agressive stance and styling but in many occasions they are just sheep in wolfs clothing.
good example of this right now is the ford explorer, another box on wheels but its faster than the cupra tavascan and range wise they are very simular on the “WLTP” numbers. the top of the range explorer is available for a £500 more than the base version Tavascan. that is where my money would be at, but i have to wait for Q4 so i have everything crossed prices dont increase or the car comes of the scheme.
i am sure youll be happy with what ever you choose happy shopping
