Cupra has launched a hot new range-topping version of the Born, which will be the brand's most potent model when it lands in autumn. The new Cupra Born VZ – short for 'veloz', or 'fast' in English – ramps up power from 228bhp in the warmed-up e-Boost variant to a Volkswagen Golf R-baiting 322bhp. The torque increase is even more dramatic, with the rear-mounted motor now chucking out a huge 402lb ft – up from 229lb ft – to give a 0-62mph time of 5.
So too has the steering system been upgraded – physically and electronically – to give a 'sportier' feeling, and the tuned brakes are said to be "stiffer and more robust". Design changes are more subtle, with the VZ marked out from its range-mates by two bespoke colour options, new designs for its wider 20in wheels and a dark chrome finish for the badges. The VZ is the first variant of the Born to feature the larger new 12.
