Charging Speed

The CUPRA Tavascan has a peak DC charging speed of 175 kW, which is roughly 75% faster than the Alfa Romeo Junior Elettrica at 100 kW. In practice, peak speed only tells part of the story. The charging curve, battery temperature, and state of charge all affect how quickly your car actually charges.

For the 10-80% charge (the most common DC fast charging scenario), the CUPRA Tavascan finishes in about 26 minutes, which is 1 minutes quicker than the Alfa Romeo Junior Elettrica at 27 minutes. On a road trip, that difference adds up over multiple stops.

Range and Efficiency

The CUPRA Tavascan has a WLTP rated range of approximately 546 km, which is roughly 146 km more than the Alfa Romeo Junior Elettrica at approximately 400 km. WLTP is a standardized lab test. Expect your actual range to be lower, varying with speed, weather, terrain, and driving style.

Efficiency matters more than battery size for daily driving costs. The Alfa Romeo Junior Elettrica consumes 159 Wh/km, compared to 173 Wh/km for the CUPRA Tavascan. That means the Alfa Romeo Junior Elettrica uses less energy per kilometer, which translates to lower charging costs and fewer charging stops on longer drives.

A more efficient car does not always mean more range. Battery size plays a role too. The CUPRA Tavascan has approximately 77 kWh of useable battery , while the Alfa Romeo Junior Elettrica has approximately 51 kWh.

Which One Should You Choose?

If fast charging speed is your priority, the CUPRA Tavascan wins on both peak power (up to 175 kW) and time at the plug (approximately 26 minutes from 10-80%). For long road trips with multiple charging stops, that faster turnaround makes a real difference.

Both cars support 11 kW AC charging, so home and workplace charging speeds will be similar.

If you mostly charge at home or at work and care more about daily driving costs, the Alfa Romeo Junior Elettrica is the more efficient choice at 159 Wh/km. Lower consumption means lower electricity bills over time.

For maximum range between charges, the CUPRA Tavascan has a WLTP rated range of approximately 546 km, which is roughly 146 km more. Both are capable EVs. The best choice depends on how you charge and how far you drive.
