NEW! CUPRA Born with eBoost (231hp) | 0-160 km/h acceleration🏁 | by Automann in 4K 

amazing engine sound

Cant wait until you can do a full test on the new SL63 amg. Love your videos !! very unbiased, and you seem like a nice guy ! thanks for making covid more enjoyable with your content during lockdowns 😂😂

Imagine you live in Germany and want to go somewhere very quickly, no speed limit but you can't go more than 160kph in a +200hp car. Ridiculous since a 96hp Fiesta can do 190kph easily

Bro has balls of steel driving behind the "Final Destination" Truck :D

Born 58 kWh 0-100 goes 6.6 👏

I feel like it is in slow motion 😂😂😂😂

7.1 s for 230hp🤡

Thank you for this nice Video ! The Car is very nice 👏👌👍

4:03 a disappointed german “joa” about the “topspeed” haha

Car design is really cool, but engine weak and boring. Also completely no sound as an electric car... Not for me :)

best logo in a car ever seen

as someone who had mostly diesel engines, what i see as a big minus, is how much range you loose at higher speed with electric cars. my ford focus diesel can do 1278 km on a full tank according to the board computer. filling up at a gas station on the highway and driving 130-140 all the time, still gets me 1023km far. doing the same on the id3 i went from 419km to 206. as something who does 900 km trips twice a month (450km per trip) this would force me to take 40 minute breaks every 1,5 hours. the reduction of range is way more intensive with eletric cars then with diesel or petrol engines, not just due to speed, but even due to things like heating and the ac. it just feels sad and kind of wrong, to pay upgrade and premium prices, to get back to a state, which was standard for 40 years and didnt cost any dime extra. i know, batteries that size are cost intensive and thats where the prices comes from, but i feel, its the wrong part to be pricy here, if we want everyone to change to electric. id say: if electric cars in fiesta size, would do a minimum of 450km, would recharge in 10 minutes and would cost the same as a regular petrol car, we would have 80% eletric cars in 5years without applying political force. so my biggest problem isnt the range per se, its the combination of low range and charge times, because i would be totally happy, if the car could only do 100km at 130kmh, when recharging would be as fast as filling the tank with gas..

Cupra mode with 231 PS only works over 85% of charge in 77kWh, and over 55% of charge in 58kWh version

I'm loving the looks of this car outside, though the inside is a bit tacky. The edges, etc, looks kind of "Honda Type R" gawdy - however, the cockpit looks very functional & seems to have avoided the VW mistakes of virtual buttons & avoided the Tesla mistake of making the interior look like a hospital room without equipment. Here in Canada, AWD is a prerequisite of mine, and power from my Subaru WRX is barely adequate. My quest is to find an EV the size & shape of this Cupra, but with AWD and as close to ~600hpe as possible. So far, the Model Y Performance is the only one to provide proper power per the size of the vehicle, but I'm hopeful the market won't settle for the "neutered male" power we see from this Cupra. The 160km/h limit, while understandable, is very limiting & indicative of a "why do you need to go that fast" nanny regulation. The car looks perfectly capable of a 200km/h pace. I realize I'm in the minority when it comes to power aspirations, but with such a huge market response to the leading Model Y's 480hpe, I'm very hopeful.

The one with smaller battery goes from 0-100km/h in 6,6 seconds

They should have give the car at least 400hp

Wozu zieht er Handschuhe an bei lahmen 231 PS? Bei der Leistung bekommt man ganz sicher keine schwitzigen Hände

I had hoped you had the 231 hp with the 58KW battery as that is 6.4 Sec 0-100. even the 58 KW with 201 is doing 7.1

wow.....crazy speed....

Sagt man da jetzt: "Geiles Abrollgeräusch". Anstatt "geiler Sound". Oder "wat n geiles Summen". Ach wie freu ich mich auf unseren Stromer.

Whats with gloves when driving a car? Genuine question.

Best video

Hallo Automänner. Wenn der ID3 das EV für den biederen öffentlichen Angestellten oder Beamten ist, dann ist der Born mit dem E-Boost das ideale Fahrzeug für den systemtreuen Ökoorientierten Sportlehrer. Beide bereits serienmäßig auf das (hoffentlich nicht so schnell) kommende Tempolimit ausgerichtet. Nein, nicht mein Auto.

Looks very premium, but in the end it seems a bit boring driving it around. The reason I believe so, is because of the silent engine (yes it's electric I know) and because of the many electronics, that simply 'limit' your fun with the car. A great city car it seems with a good acceleration but overpriced and down the line not fun to keep for ages. Love your vids though my friend, keep on!

This cars look painfully slow without engine noise

Why there are lightyears between tesla and other e cars ? I don’t understand? Can’t the others or only dont want to build so fast ?

231HP = V-Max 160km/h 😂😂😂😂😂

Put a 1.5 tsi in it and I'll buy it in a heartbeat

Good video 👌

Looks cool

It def. could be little bit faster but seems pretty okay.

So to be clear did you have the 77kwh battery? The 58kwh battery can do 0 - 100kmh in 6.5 seconds.

Danke erstmal für das gute Video! Ich muss leider sagen, dass ich nicht überzeugt bin von dem Auto. Langsam, langweilig, nicht besonders hübsch, schlechte Verarbeitung und dazu überteuert…

Na das ist ja mal Cup Racing vom Allerfeinsten ... :(

Premium version of the ID3

Ist der e-Boost nur für eine kurze Zeit aktiviert oder kann man selbst entscheiden wann man den e-Boost wieder ausschaltet?

Why is it locked at 160?

Wo sind die ganzen Hubraummoster, die ihr früher immer hattet? Kommt da nochmal was?

What's the real world range?

Top

Did this have the Michelin Pilot Sport 4 EV tyres?

The performance of a 50 year old, budget, sedan, with the pricetag of a modern, performance, ICE car. This is just sad.

What is the time from 100-160kph?

Mit E Boost ist er nur noch 0,5 Sekunden langsamer als ein Model 3 SR Plus.

Nice Video - but the gloves are really embarrassing ;-)

So uninspiring, cars are becoming just a means of transport instead of a exhilarating experience. The future is not bright.

It's fine. Ok. But a joke to sell this as Cupra.

Whats the name of the colour?

I got rid of mine in order to restore my sanity and sleep patterns! Charging performance is abysmal. Just get a BMW i4 which is on a whole different level

The better looking id3 they should have fitted a bigger motor for a cupra , it’s just let down by the same flaws as the Id 3 daft windows switches and sadly worse headlights please offer a matrix headlight soon

I think it is super slow ... it is RWD, so it should have better traction than a FWD car, it has 231 HP (like a 7 GTI) , no transmition shifts and instant E Power torque and still is half a second slower than a old 7 series GTI? It should easy run a low 6.X time ...

they should have done 250 hp. 7.1 is like kona. guess kona with its 12.7 s 0 to 140 kmh is even faster than the cupra. again 250 ps would have been easily possible. a megane e and a kona 64 is as fast as the cupra, thats not so impressive.

Omg that's SLOW!

what is this?

Da lacht mein Tesla drüber

One of the worst performance cars to come out of vag, a 2.0 diesel would smoke this pathetic car

All stupid comment raised by people that have never used an EV, as usual. As soon as you drive an EV on the road you find all ICEs as painfully slow, almost dead horses, no exceptions, the more espensive the ICEs are the more noise and pollution they make, no other differences.

Driving gloves? 😳

Doesnt feel like 230hp at all

That is dire😂

You didn't turn off traction Control. It blinks all the time

I was going to buy one, but then I saw the ridiculous top speed of 99mph or 160kmh, so i will stick with petrol.

top speed and performance are dismal. Id rather have a used diesel golf over this

Ich sage das nur ungern, aber wenn man den extra Boost nicht über die "Boost" Taste abruft ... dann ist der auch nicht da.. ist aber nur meine Meinung (Cupra Modus in allen Ehren) ;-)

why it's limited to 160km/h

bald meins :) aber mit 58kWh

puuuh sehr zäh!

Mein 200 PS Audi A1 ist deutlich schneller ^^

Lost all respect when he said “not enough power to drift” It’s an EV ffs 👎

this is not a proper cupra... performance is a joke.. the proper Cupra EV will merge later i guess but this is just tacky inside out

Fast 2 Tonnen!!!! Nicht ganz dicht oder was?? Sollen sie mal bei Tesla nachfragen wie man es leichter bekommt.

Disgusting.

HP Like my old RX8 :-)

Wtf

⚘😊👌

electric cars are boring........and empty when you drive them hard and fast. The Born looks okay but drives boring (no sound and heavy)

Pour l'instant elles font pas du tous rêvé ses voitures électriques !!! De toute façon on aura pas le choix de les acheter quand le carburant sera a 3€ le litre et qu'il n'y aura plus que c'est merde d'électrique

Nowadays we are just buying aesthetics not performance. Imagine buying a car that feels like and acts like a phone. A software on 4 wheels. Puts some speed you useless vw and stop messing up with our money.

Vaya basura de coche

😂

~44.000 € nackt für ein solches, 160 km/h schnelles Auto mit wenig Emotionen und einer Plastiklandschaft im Inneren sind schlichtweg ein Witz, gerade auch was die Ausstattung angeht. Hier wird bei (für meinem Dafürhalten) günstigeren Herstellkosten aufgrund einer vermeintlich fortschrittlicheren Technik (die sie wie wir alle wissen nicht ist) Kasse gemacht auf Kosten der Autofahrer, der sich unter politischem Druck dem Thema E annähern soll aber im nackten Vergleich zu klassisch angetriebenen Fahrzeugen eher noch weniger Auto leisten kann als vorher, was nebst einem ländlich eher lachhaft ausgebautem Ladenetz schlussendlich auch der Grund für die maue Akzeptanz des ganzen Themas ist. Wenn man sich mal ansieht warum Länder wie Skandinavien bei den anteiligen Zulassungszahlen von E-Fahrzeugen um einiges besser abschneidet braucht man sich nur die Preise, die Förderungskultur und das Ladenetz dafür ansehen. Und sobald jeder das E Fahrzeug daheim hat wird der Strom an der "Zapfsäule" unerschwinglich teuer sein, die KFZ Steuer Befreiung kein Thema mehr sein und uns mit der grottenschlechte CO2 Bilanz der Akkuherstellung das nächste schlechte Gewissen gemacht werden, um Kasse zu machen! Eine Totgeburt von Anfang an!

ugly logo , ugly car

Expensive yawn. I20N so much better.

Just a failure

Zu teuer zu langsam.

This car is so pointless

boring

low battery lol
