EV Channels Review
The Cupra Born VZ is presented as the performance-oriented version the popular electric hatchback should have always been. The reviewer highlights significant upgrades, including a boosted power output to 322hp and 402 lb-ft of torque, a larger 79 kWh battery offering an improved range of up to 372 miles, and faster DC charging up to 185 kW. Notable interior enhancements include the lightweight, electrically adjusted 'Cup Bucket' sports seats and an improved infotainment system with backlit climate controls. While the VZ maintains a rear-wheel-drive setup, the reviewer praises its enhanced chassis, recalibrated suspension, and sharper steering, which contribute to a more engaging and stable driving experience, even in adverse conditions. The VZ is positioned as a compelling, albeit pricier, alternative to the standard Born and the MG 4 XPower, offering a more refined and complete performance EV package.
