Additionally, we offer an overview of the full specifications, an image gallery, detailed information about charging performance, and some online reviews. Our sections include:
Performance
With overboost, the CUPRA BORN 58 e-BOOST has a maximum power of 170 kW (231 hp / 228 bhp). Without overboost, it delivers 150 kW (204 hp / 201 bhp). Maximum torque is 310 Nm (229 lb-ft). It accelerates from 0 to 100 km/h (0 to 62 mph) in 6.6 seconds and reaches a top speed of 160 km/h (99 mph).
Battery, Range, and Charging
The high-capacity battery has a gross capacity of 62.0 kWh and a net usable capacity of 58.0 kWh, providing a 4.0 kWh buffer (6.5%) for battery protection. With a nominal voltage of 350 volts, the system is classified as a 400-volt battery system, aligning with industry standards.
Under the WLTP (Worldwide Harmonized Light Vehicles Test Procedure) standard, the vehicle's range varies between 420 to 362 km (261-225 miles), depending on the specific configuration and options, such as wheel size. Larger wheels can increase energy consumption and subsequently reduce the overall range.
The vehicle's energy consumption is rated at 13.8 kWh/100 km for the base model and 16.0 kWh/100 km for the top-tier model under the WLTP test cycle.
For more details about the range, see real-world data and range listings on this model’s range and consumption page.
The vehicle supports fast DC charging with a maximum power of 120 kW. Charging from 0% to 100% takes approximately 64 minutes, while a typical 10% to 80% charge takes about 35 minutes with an average charging speed of 70 kW.
Considering an additional 5 minutes for each charging stop due to driving interruptions, the optimal charging range is from 0% to 43%. This results in an effective charging speed, including time lost, of 76 kW, with each charging session taking about 20 minutes and 46 seconds.
In a 1000 km challenge at a constant speed of 120 km/h (75 mph) with an assumed consumption rate of 22 kWh/100 km, the trip would take about 10 hours and 28 minutes, needing seven charging stops from 0% to 40%, totaling 129 minutes of charging time.
Onboard Charger
The standard onboard charger supports up to 11 kW for Level 1 and Level 2 AC charging, allowing a full 0–100% charge in about 5 hours and 16 minutes with a standard home setup.
Charge Port
The location of the charge port is on the right rear side. This placement makes it easy to use charging stations that require backing up to connect.
Connector types vary by market: this model uses CCS Combo 1 in North America and CCS Combo 2 in Europe. For complete specifications for all markets, refer to the full specifications.
