The high-performance CUPRA Born VZ has officially opened for order in the UK, with pricing starting at £44,625 MDP.
The latest version of the brand’s first fully electric model, the CUPRA Born VZ boasts an all-electric system capable of delivering 326PS of power and 545Nm of torque – 75% more than any other Born version.
Thanks to DCC Sport suspension, the enhanced powertrain and improved chassis dynamics mean the CUPRA Born VZ can reach 62mph from a standing start in just 5.6 seconds. The model’s top speed has also increased and is now limited to 124mph.
But, performance has not been achieved by sacrificing efficiency. The improved battery pack now offers 79kWh of net capacity (+2kWh) and can travel up to 372 miles. It can then be recharged at home using an 11kW AC system or at a DC 185kW fast-charging point, with a fast charge from 10% to 80%, taking just 26 minutes.
In addition to an uplift in power, the CUPRA Born VZ also hosts a sportier interior, with new Enceladus Grey CUP bucket seats as standard and a Sennheiser Premium Audio sound system. On the exterior, the new model flaunts 20-inch Thunderstorm alloy wheels and the exclusive Dark Forest paint finish option.
“The CUPRA Born is an incredibly popular model, and we’re thrilled with the impact it has made as our first all-electric offering. At CUPRA, we continuously strive to exceed expectations, and the Born VZ does exactly that. More power, enhanced refinement, and builds upon the strengths of an already exceptional car.”
Marcus Gossen, Director of SEAT and CUPRA UK
In addition to the performance and design enhancements, CUPRA Born VZ also receives a technology boost, with keyless entry (KESSY advanced), Car 2X intelligent vehicle networking and wireless phone charger all as standard.
