Volkswagen presented a sporty version of the Cupra Born electric hatchback called Cupra Born VZ. The additive VZ is short for veloz, which means “speed” in Spanish.

Let us remind you that Cupra Born is nothing more than Volkswagen ID.3 with original front end.

The Cupra Born VZ is rear-wheel drive and has 322 horsepower. Almost a BMW M3 E46, only electric, 400 kg heavier, and following 10 years will be a toxic pile of junk, not the passionate dream of aging young men.

Power 322 hp and a torque of 545 Nm in the Cupra Born VZ are achieved through software tricks. Likewise, the speed limiter has been pushed back from 160 to 200 km/h. The Cupra Born VZ battery, according to the manufacturer, is 2 kWh larger than that of a regular Cupra Born, for a total of 79 kWh. Probably also as a result of using a different measurement algorithm for the previous battery. What is truly original regarding the Cupra Born VZ is its equipment. DCC sports suspension, thicker stabilizer. Wide front seats from the “hot crossover” Cupra Formentor VZ5. Wheels with a diameter of 20 inches with Bridgestone tires.

Branded logos and decor on the bumpers and in the interior in a copper finish. For an additional fee, you can get a Sennheiser audio system with 10 speakers with a power of 425 watts. Two exclusive colors are available for the body – smoky green Dark Forest and black Midnight Black.

In the EU, the Cupra Born VZ will be offered from the third quarter. Volkswagen positions Cupra as sportier and more expensive analogues of the brand’s cars.
