Overview of the New CUPRA Born

The CUPRA Born is the brand's fully electric hatchback, updated with a bolder front bumper, new grille and available Matrix LED headlights. Illuminated door handles, 3D rear lights and an illuminated logo amplify its visual presence, while a built-in rear diffuser boosts aerodynamics and sporty appeal. It is proof that going electric need not mean losing driving emotion.

Performance and range are impressive. The Born delivers up to 326PS in VZ form and covers up to 388 miles on a single charge, with zero tailpipe emissions whilst driving. The quickest version reaches 62 mph in 5.6 seconds, and rapid charging from 10 to 80 per cent takes around 26 minutes on a 183kW charger. Vehicle-to-load technology lets you power external devices too.

Inside, a driver-focused cabin features a 10.25-inch digital cockpit and a 12.9-inch infotainment system powered by Android, with parametric surfaces made from 75 per cent recycled materials. With a 385-litre boot and five seats, the Born is as practical as it is engaging.

New CUPRA Born Interior

Inside the Born, the cabin blends sporty design with sustainable materials. A 10.25-inch digital cockpit sits ahead of the driver, with a 12.9-inch Android-powered infotainment system at the centre. Parametric embossed surfaces made from 75 per cent recycled materials capture CUPRA's design DNA, while a mechanical control system on the steering wheel keeps key functions to hand.

Comfort and technology build through the range. V2 adds electrically adjustable memory bucket seats, a top view camera and a head-up display, while the VZ brings CUP bucket seats crafted from sustainable materials, including natural fibres and SEAQUAL textile, plus the Sennheiser AMBEO immersive sound system for a rich audio experience.

CUPRA Born Exterior

The Born wears CUPRA's electric design language with confidence. A sharp new front bumper, grille and built-in rear diffuser give it a purposeful, aerodynamic stance, while illuminated door handles, 3D rear lights and the illuminated logo create a distinctive night-time signature. Matrix LED headlights are available for precise, glare-free illumination.

There's plenty of scope to personalise. Alloy wheels run from 19 to 20 inches, including the striking 20-inch Firestorm Copper design exclusive to VZ models, and a range of colours is offered, from Timanfaya Grey to Dark Forest and Aurora Blue. Whichever you choose, the Born has genuine road presence.

CUPRA Born Trims and Specifications

Full CUPRA Born specs vary by trim, so it helps to see them side by side before choosing. The range spans V1 and V2, then the performance VZ, with equipment building as you move up. Even V1 includes keyless entry with illuminated handles, heated front seats and the 10.25-inch digital cockpit as standard.

CUPRA Born Range, Battery and Performance

Every Born is fully electric. The range-focused versions cover up to 388 miles on a single charge, while the VZ delivers up to 326PS and reaches 62 mph in 5.6 seconds, all with zero tailpipe emissions whilst driving. Rapid charging from 10 to 80 per cent takes around 26 minutes on a 183kW charger, and Vehicle to Load lets you power external devices from the battery.
