Bravo et merci . Excellente video . Vous parlez de choses que peu d'autres tests parlent . J ai vu beaucoup de videos sur la cupra born et vous apportez des elements en plus . J ai commandé la mienne en version xl 77 kwh pour 23900€ en france grace aux aides de l état. À ce prix c est génial. Merci

I still cannot fathom why one-pedal driving was not made a selectable option. Other brands sometimes have flappy paddles on the back of the steering wheel to allow for different degrees of regen, with the strongest being one-pedal driving. I love that feature on my car and think I would miss it. Otherwise, I think that the Cupra Born is very compelling.

[@TheFutureisElectric]

Agreed 👍

Les palettes derrière le volant sont derrière le volant sur la nouvelle version .

I agree,cannot undsrstand why they dont have that as an option. Also I would like a bit more hard regen as an option also, like Tesla or the Mini Cooper electric.

Great review! I'm really hoping cupra (and VW) fix the capacitive buttons on the steering wheel and the lack of physical climate controls soon. If so, this is my next car.

It’s is a great car, I really enjoyed it

[@HrdStL11]

The car is generally great, but the price is not and thats why you wont see many on them on the road.

Not a good EV in my experience. My AC charging issue was the Born half charged overnight which nobody could explain from October 22 to May 23 when I purchased another car. VW retailer’s solicitors then said in 29 June 2023 that a VW website had a small print footnote saying “VWG test data for comparison purposes. ….Charging time will be longer in cold weather or if battery safeguarding technology is activated.” It was in a VW website not Cupra and was copyright 2023 when I purchased in 2022! It was also very strange that nobody from Cupra head office or the retailer ever mentioned this during the six months of issues! So obviously they didn’t know what battery safe was or why it was relevant. It still means nothing to me, it is unexplained why it activates on what basis and when! But apparently means in VW parallel universe it’s ok for my car to half speed charge 75/80% of the time in an integral closed garage!!!!! I don’t think the footnote would suggest that an ordinary garaged vehicle will half charge so much! Just hope nobody else suffers with random safety!!!
