We consider $ \mathcal{N} =2 $ supergravity theories that have the same spectrum as the R + R² supergravity, as predicted from the off‐shell counting of degrees of freedom. These theories describe standard $ \mathcal{N} =2 $ supergravity coupled to one or two long massive vector multiplets. The central charge is not gauged in these models and they have a Minkowski vacuum with $ \mathcal{N} =2 $ unbroken supersymmetry. The gauge symmetry, being non‐compact, is always broken. α‐deformed inflaton potentials are obtained, in the case of a single massive vector multiplet, with α = 1/3 and 2/3. The α = 1 potential (i.e. the Starobinsky potential) is also obtained, but only at the prize of having a single massive vector and a residual unbroken gauge symmetry. The inflaton corresponds to one of the Cartan fields of the non‐compact quaternionic‐Kähler cosets.
