The 2024 Cupra Born is a battery-electric hatchback with RWD and seating for 5. It belongs to the Gen 1 generation. The 77 kWh is the version described here, and the figures below refer to that configuration unless noted otherwise.
Performance
The featured 77 kWh version develops 231 hp and 310 Nm (229 lb-ft) of torque. Its listed 0-100 km/h time is 7.0 seconds, which is responsive rather than outright performance-focused. Top speed is listed at 160 km/h (99 mph). Its power output is about 30% above the peer average. Its 0-100 km/h time is about 16% quicker than the peer average. The figures establish its straight-line performance on paper, but they do not substitute for measured braking, handling or ride-quality tests.
Battery, range and charging
Battery capacity is listed at 77.0 kWh. The recorded electric range is 548 km (341 miles). Listed energy or fuel consumption is 14.1 kWh/100km. Maximum DC charging power is 135 kW. Its listed range is about 29% above the peer average. Real-world range and charging speed still depend on temperature, speed, wheel choice, battery state and the conditions of the test cycle.
Dimensions and practicality
Its exterior dimensions are 4,322 mm (170.2 in) in length, 1,809 mm (71.2 in) in width, and 1,540 mm (60.6 in) in height, while the wheelbase measures 2,765 mm (108.9 in). Cargo capacity is listed at 385 litres (13.6 cu ft), expanding to 1,267 litres (44.7 cu ft) with the rear seats folded. The cabin is configured for 5 occupants. Listed curb weight is 1,790 kg (3,946 lb). That cargo volume is about 15% above the peer average. The measurements are useful for comparison, although seat comfort, access and the shape of the load area still need to be judged in person.
In perspective
Compared with nearby battery-electric hatchback models from the same period, the 2024 Cupra Born is strongest on power and range, while price stands out as the principal numerical compromise. That conclusion is drawn from the recorded specifications rather than a road test. A final choice should also account for local pricing, equipment, comfort and a test drive.
