First drive of the Cupra Born

Nick Ponting checks out the Cupra Born, named after a district in Barcelona, and what is closely tied to Volkswagen’s ID.3, sharing its platform and design. However, the Born stands out as a sportier alternative, with sharper handling and more aggressive styling, especially in the performance-focused VZ model, which also offers an extended electric range. As Cupra’s first fully electric car, the Born competes with rivals like the VW ID.3, Renault Megane E-Tech, and MG4 EV. For those seeking longer range and more space, consider the Hyundai Ioniq 5 or Kia EV6. The Born delivers an engaging drive with good range (up to 372 miles in the VZ), but its touch-sensitive controls and higher price point compared to the MG4 EV are drawbacks. Inside, it offers a well-thought-out driving position and solid build quality, though the infotainment system can be frustrating. Passenger space is ample, comparable to the VW Golf, but the boot is average for its class. Find out if the Cupra Born is a compelling option for those seeking a fun-to-drive electric hatchback.
