Thanks, You are the best Irish car reviewer, relaxed informative easy to listen to style with substance and no waffle. No nonsense delivery makes the content interesting and short. Very natural style.
Appreciate that, thank you very much for watching! :)
Great review as always. Will be interesting to see what the iD3 GTX will bring when it’s released!
Watching Mark on UA-cam and RTE at the same time! I'm not obsessed! Honestly.
Ha, thanks Stephen!
I really like this Cupra Born. I like the ID.3 and I think this Born is an ID.3 made even better (just kinda sad it lost the ID Light).
Now I'd love Cupra to put the Urban Rebel on the market, it just looks like a life size RC Car, I love it !
Lovely looking car. Really liking this over the ID.3, particularly for the sport suspension, sport seats etc. Some nice paint and wheel options too.
Really like the look of this. If I was in the market for a smallish full EV, i'd definitely give this a good look over. Great review.
V nice car and good review. Not pumping out emissions is cool. I'm going to switch to a PHEV soon hopefully from a hot hatch
Love the review looking to buy cupra born later this year and love Aurora Blue.
Thank you for the great video. Cupra are definitely on the roll. Great car.
Just sat in it. Lovely. I want it
I love this over the ID 3 better looking inside and out.. and it doesn't have them stupid arm rest on the seat's it's got an arm rests box that I like that was a big issue for me.
Great review. Lovely car. Great job on prime time btw.
Nice 1 Nobby! I think this is the best lookin EV so far. I would certainly pick this over the ID3
I drove an id3 recently , too high driving position, utterly catastrophic interior , your Cupra is visually a big improvement. Just don’t get a flat tyre .
Thanks for another great review, 5 star, was waiting for this one but you didnt keep us waiting long, much nicer than the id3, starting price not bad, but of course like most models there are up to 4 packs which you can specify which adds well to the price
Always enjoy your reviews Nobby, must admit I like that better over the ID3 especially with the Cupra "Decepticon" logo. As much as the 18" wheels are more sensible for ride over the 19's I don't like the design of the 18's tho' I know they've been designed with aerodynamics in mind.
We’re in early 2022? Jesus, how long did I sleep last night? 😄
I’d love to know what all the differences are between the different chargers & kilowatts 🤷♂️ #baffled love this sporty look on the Cupra will certainly encourage VW to up their game for the ID3 GTX 😉
Just larger batteries essentially or kW charging is how fast they can charge. A home / on street at side of the road charger will charge an EV to full in around 8-10 hours. A 'fast' charger is what you'll find in a garage, generally 50kW and above. They can do 20-80% in around 25-40 mins. Model depending obviously, some are faster, some are slower.
I guess, the armrest in the back depends on the trim level.
Great review Nobby, keep them up! I will be giving a serious thought to a switch to electric next year. This last year my current car has sat on the driveway apparently appreciating in value (crazy times) so getting into a Born could be a logical move.
Thanks Adrian. Yes I have an older car too and I'm considering selling it for the same reason.
Have prices been confirmed for Ireland. Surprised to see a price quoted at the start. Cannot find it anywhere?
Confirmed from Irish staff 👍🏻
Go on you good thing, just seen ya on Claire Byrne. Nice one
Enjoyed the review. 👍🏻 How did the brakes feel?
Found them sharp yeah!
The first electric car I’ve seen that I’d actually consider buying.
Looks cool I think
Good review Mark
Thanks Paul
Hi love your videos your on Claire Byrne tonight on about cist of EV I don't get you do you honestly believe that price of unit ESB is going to go through roof in 2 to 3 years time so cost b back to square one ,ESB and government going to have to make money so done think for one second electric cars are going to be cheap to run in years to come .
I'm 6"3, would I struggle for room in this car?
I currently drive a 2021 Audi A3 and find my legs are always trapped between the steering wheel and centre console / drivers door.
thanks for the review , I really like the look of the Born, its much nicer than the ID3, is this the price for the 45Kwh model ? the price is about the same as the enterly level ID3 58 Kwh model but has less spec , I think
Nice one, cheers for putting that together. Didn't know this existed but I do now, and a real option over the id3. I take it you prefer this then? Anything the VW does better?
Has better known badge perhaps but when it’s literally the same car, that’s not a strong argument.
Is there a new review coming, I’ve seen you had the born on Instagram?
It’s in the hard drive. Working through a bit of a backlog. The software is still terrible.
You think? I didn’t expect you to get any more cred after that id4 review. 😜
BEEP BEEP! Hang on a minute, I am trying to navigate through the 15 sub menus to get to the sporty setting. Mate any movement will be better than sitting here stopped waiting for you to navigate your computer system.
Unfortunately nowhere to charge thus vehicle in Killcullen.
Great review! It’s a lovely looking car, much nicer than ID.3. Does it come with a heat pump?
No afraid not
@@NobbyOnCars That’s a pity, probably means the WLTP range is not realistic & will real world be 15 - 20% less than advertised
@@niallohanlon7260 It’s got a heat pump according to there website 👍
What's the ride comfort like on the V1 with the standard suspension, especially over bumps?
Haven’t tried the car without DCC
@@NobbyOnCars DCC (adaptive) was an optional extra? Has that car in the video had it bought as an extra?
Just in general though how did you find it on the V1
The messing around with charge time and battery size seems like they are discouraging/punishing you for picking a smaller, cheaper battery.
Great review mate....i'm thinking of switching from an Octavia VRS to electric this year and had my eye on this model. Do you know how much the longest range version will be ?
500kms although unlikely you’d quite get that range
Cheers mate....i was thinking in euros though :)
Good informative video... Does it have a heat pump??
Not as standard
I've yet to see official pricing announced (as of 10/11/21). Anyone know differently?
The CUPRA Born will start from €31,440* including SEAI grant and VRT relief for the 45 kWh. battery variant. The 58 kWh will start from €35,550* and from €39,000* on the e-boost trim. And lastly the 77kWh with e-boost will start from €42,650*. All pricing includes the SEAI grant and VRT relief.
@@NobbyOnCars Thank you kindly! 🙂👍
Watch how long his eyes are off the road while prodding the screen. Buttons are better
It’s an id3
Really interested in one of these how much will the 77kw cost
€42,650
@@NobbyOnCars that’s not bad , but can they actually take orders I was told no when I went to buy an id3
I'd say they were waiting for prices to be confirmed, now that they are, it's worth a call I'd say.
I've given up on my cupra Leon purely based on the frustrating infotainment system. It's aweful and s step backwards. If this system is identical, stay clear.
So BMW have moved away from RWD and all I seem to see these days is EVs that are RWD. Wonder if we'll see a few in ditches when winter hits. Are owners aware of the downsides to RWD 🤔
I don't think it's as much of an issue in EVs because of the difference in weight distribution
This and the ID.3 just reminder me of the Golf Plus.
It still doesn't look that sexy, very fat looking.
Better lines but I take your point about the higher looking roofline etc
The Born has been born. 😐
Terrible name for a car. Absolutely shocking. Better than an ID3 but not different enough. Charge to 80% the vast majority of the time to maximise battery life!
Mark. Excellent review. However yet another cookie cut E 'car'?? Use the expression loosely!... What is the VW Group trying to do? Along with that most dreadful of all 'E' brands, Tesla, the id.... same, same, same. is on course to put so many people off considering an electric vehicle. Awful on a whole new scale. As i have said before Mini, BMW i3, Corsa and 208 are getting it right. The rest? And Kia, Audi etc etc Just stop! It hurts. Enough. Produce good designed 'everyday' vehicles for every day people.
when you say 'everyday' do you mean cheap ?
Much of it is down to safety regulations. So things like thick A, B and C pillars are a given, high waisted door lines and bulbous bonnet lines another. Designers have to work within a smaller "box" as it were. The BMW i3 and the Mini are older designs and probably wouldn't pass new and future regs today. Secondly they have to be world cars so keeping things overall bland to cover their bases is also in play. The same car has to sell in the US as well as Italy. Costs are another big factor. Margins are very tight so you get lots of parts matching to keep those costs down.
How is the i3 an everyday vehicle?!?!
Electric cars are the ultimate everyday car! They are nippy, lovely to drive and you can charge them from home anytime you want without having to pull up to filling station in the rain, wait and fill you your car with expensive and dirty diesel or petrol. The only thing I can think of (but this is changing all the time) is the range, people that work in sales for example or those that commute very long distances daily, then you may need to stop off more and charging might take longer than would filling with fuel (again this is improving all the time) and planning might be required. So for the majority of people, on this very small island of ours, an EV makes total sense. And I'll also remind you that you won't have any choice on anything else in the not too distant future as fossil fuel vehicles will no longer be produced in Germany by 2030, so expecting the EU to drive the Ev transition and outright ban new fossil fuel vehicles from entering the market. Investment of course is needed for EU infrastructure and this has been recognized. But again by the time you own an EV, range and infrastructure will have greatly increased. As for why this and the ID3 looks the same, they share the same MEB platform that is groundup built for EV, thereby designed for battery placement, effeciency etc.. the cars you mentioned are still stuck in the past and most adapt their cars to suit EV, e.g. 100% EV design and not based on diesel/petrol based chassis. Having said that VW group, is the biggest car producer in the world, to get their it shares it's platforms and tech with each of it's brands, such as the Tiguain/Ateca/Q3/Karoq, so you are virtually sitting in the same vehicle with exception of very different levels of trim and luxury!
