These were given to us as the press launch. I thought you'd like to see them.

I do really like it. In design terms, IMHO it’s streets ahead of - and far more stylish than - VW’s forthcoming rather frumpy looking ID.2 if the renderings of that car are anything to go by (they may well be fairly accurate as it reflects VW’s current design language for the ID electric vehicle range).

Let’s hope VAG software issues are a dim and distant memory by the time the UrbanRebel launches.

VW’s ID.2;

Lol, at the launch I asked the designer how close the prototype was to production. Specifically, things like the CUPRA led lettering on the sides. His response was "the car is 95-98% production". Let's see how it pans out when the accountants get hold of it. :)
Bet they go for the 99p cheeseburger version as opposed to the Bacon Double XXXXXXXL :cautious:

My guess would be the car’s body will be pretty much the same as in the first, second and forth pictures, with the addition of conventional door handles, non-illuminated (normal) badges on the bonnet and tailgate, and wheels reduced in size to 18”.

The earlier concept version in the pictures below was probably the Bacon Double XXXXXXXL. The tamed down near production-ready prototype at the link posted above by @Syphon (post #9) is more likely the equivalent of the 99p cheeseburger. If so, then I’d be more than happy to take the 99p cheeseburger 👍🙂.

Looks like stupid size big wheels, stay sensible and drop the ride height, I’m not gonna use it for crop spraying, why do they all now make them so high, my missus only has short legs!

Valid point.
I fitted bonnet struts to Mrs Seriously's Leon as she's a short-@rse and struggled to lift the bonnet high enough to engage the manual prop.
( yes, she does know how to check the oil, water, brake fluid and washer bottle 😇🥰)
