CUPRA Born Review
The Born from CUPRA is a taut, aggressive and eye-catching all-electric hatchback that has won a clutch of awards since its launch in 2022.
It's aggressive, in-your-face, and well equipped as standard. And the Born could be the lean, mean leasing machine you’ve been dreaming of.

About the CUPRA Born
The Born gets its name from the hip, trendy El Born district of Barcelona, Spain.
And if you like the practicality of the Volkswagen ID.3 - which shares the same electric platform as the Born - but you’re not sold on the VW’s styling, then CUPRA’s offering should appeal.
It’s an EV that has won countless industry awards and which continues to set itself apart from rivals through its razor sharp styling and copper-coloured design flourishes.
In VZ form, the CUPRA Born is properly ‘hot’, capable of accelerating from 0-62mph in 5.6 seconds.
Why lease a CUPRA Born SUV?
The latest Born is built to deliver ‘electrifying performance with new features that intensify every drive’, says CUPRA.
There’s a choice of two batteries; a 58 kWh unit delivers a range of up to 279 miles while a larger 79 kWh pack ups the distance to a max of 372 miles.
The list of standard equipment is extensive and includes 19-inch alloys, a 12.9-inch touchscreen, sport suspension, and heated bucket seats in the front.
Meanwhile rapid charging at speeds up to 185 kW DC can take the energy in the battery from 10-80% in between 26-30 mins.

CUPRA Born Review
That trend is continuing with this new vehicle, the Born – there is no standard SEAT version. It is an all-electric compact family car designed to take on the likes of the Kia e-Niro and the Hyundai Ioniq 5. In line with the rest of the CUPRA brand, the Born’s trims are named with a ‘V’, so there’s V1, V2 and V3. While it isn’t the most aggressive vehicle CUPRA has in its range, it looks the part and gives off the impression of a hot hatch.

CUPRA Born Frequntly Asked Questions
Prices for the CUPRA Born begin at £34,495 (with the Electric Car Grant applied) and rise to £45,995 for the hot VZ model.
The range figure varies for the CUPRA Born depending on the trim and battery. The cheapest models have a range of up to 279 miles while the larger 79 kWh battery increases the distance to around 372 miles. That’s strong for the class, and matches the award-winning Kia EV3.
Yes, the CUPRA Born is rear-wheel drive. This is one of the Born’s biggest search differentiators in the lease market as it means drivers enjoy more playful handling than many front-wheel drive EV rivals.
The CUPRA Born VZ is a genuine hot hatch with considerable pace. Power of 326 PS enables the VZ model to accelerate from 0-62mph in 5.6 seconds. That makes it one of the quickest EVs in its class - though it’s not as rapid as the twin-motor Volvo EX30 or the all-wheel drive MG4 EV XPower.
Luggage capacity of the CUPRA Born measures 385 litres. That keeps it competitive with compact hatchback EVs, though it’s not class-leading.
Jon was excellent throughout the process, and really worked hard for me. There was a small price discrepancy, as the “in stock deal” on the website only indicated the price for a base model without any additional options, which was not actually possible to order - which I felt was a little misleading. However, Jon worked up a deal I was happy with, and communicated very well throughout the process - including following up with some issues after delivery. I will definitely use again.
Yeh, good service a bit of headache filling forms couple of times but turn around was very good and with the maintenance cover it’s peace of mind.
What's great: I'm now driving a lovely Lexus at a far more affordable price than I could find elsewhere. My contract includes a full maintenance deal which isn't always available with other providers. The sales process and arranging the finance was a good experience, with lots of support from Dave. Thanks Dave! BUT ... Once the contract had been agreed, communication was terrible. I was told that I would get access to the portal (which is the only way to track progress) 'shortly': it took 2 weeks and multiple phone calls and emails (initiated by me)to gain access. Promises to phone me back were not met. In the end, Dave sorted it out. Thanks Dave. The portal looked promising as it appeared that I could track my car's journey from the factory in Japan to delivery. However, apart from me uploading identity documents to it (not acknowledged until I got in contact), the portal did not change except to put my expected delivery date back a month (no explanation). Then out of the blue, the Lexus dealership phoned me to say that my car was ready for collection. This was surprising as the portal located the car in Japan, and gave me a bit of a dilemma as I needed to get rid of my current car at very short notice (anyone looking for an Audi Q2?). Nothing from Select Car until I contacted them to say where the car was. Their failure to contact me was apparently the Lexus dealership's fault in some way ... which I find hard to believe to be honest. I made the decision to collect the car rather than have it delivered, in order to get a proper dealership handover, which I was told was fine. Only nothing happened until I phoned Select Car and was told that I had to arrange collection directly with the dealer. That was news to me, but I did it, and was then sent regular emails informing me that my car was due to be delivered to my house on that date. A few more phone calls followed to sort that out ... Maybe I just had a poor experience. Maybe if you go for a car that is in stock rather than a factory order the process might be smoother. At the end of the day, I did get my car at a good price and within the original time frame, so on reflection I've changed my rating from 3 to 4 stars. But it was a frustrating journey which some joined-up communications at Select Car would have made a happier overall experience.
