Cupra Born 58 driving impressions

[@budsan]

4:00 jokes aside, some trivia: cupra born is named after a district from Barcelona "el born" and it's also a pun, the battery terminals in Spanish are called "bornes".

[@jakubchodilek6882]

I am coming back to your channel mainly because there is no other KZbinr who test ev's same as you. After few videos I always easily make decision if some car is good or not good. Then I also coming back because of your personality, jokes and you are just different and that I like the most. Keep doing your amazing job 👏

[@dragospahontu]

He tests cars so well

[@davidrunnalls3039]

I like your videos and the format you have been using since I started following you about two years ago. You are entertaining and very informative. It is very difficult to please all the people all the time. As you say I feel I am riding in the car with you as your companion and this is what brings me back time and time again. Keep up the excellent work.

[@ivankuljis1780]

We LOVE you Bjorn! We just don't LOVE the 'others' as much! We are BOOMERANGS____yeah, we always COME back!

[@feedrate1]

The long videos gets me through my work day.

[@ezpoppy55]

I am here for the information and your personality. I find your channel to be very useful and happily recommend others looking to buy for useful info on EVs. And you crack me up. Icing on the cake.

[@mattleistner313]

Enjoy your Reviews like this - keep on going. 😄✌

[@Hans_van_Gurp]

It is The Netherlands, North Holland and South Holland are provinces. Because our capital is in North Holland many people say Holland in English instead of the Netherlands 😊👍🏻

[@gino.s.martens]

Yes, and to add to that: 400 years ago these two provinces were together and called just Holland. Also, at that time provinces had more power (like states in the USA). Only later they split into North and South Holland.

[@KanokimDK]

I really like your videos and if I disagree with you on something I just keep it to myself because we are all different people. Your arguments are often (if not always) very well documented. No doubt you are helping in choosing my next EV.

[@teslabot6517]

We like u cause we feel like we can trust you, therefore we value your opinion- on the EVs u test. That's why Elon is admired. He is trustworthy!

[@robsmith1a]

People want to slag off Tesla if they don't like Elon and want him to fail. I watch your videos because of the way you talk and you seem pretty honest about things. It's great that you do night driving and review the lights - pretty much nobody does that and now that I'm older good lights are increasingly important.

[@544juanito]

Apparently here in uk the cupra comes with the insulated windscreen like id3, that’s what it says on the cupra web page

[@Apipoulai]

30:20 Facebook is for old people. It's Instagram now ;)

[@philmorbey1827]

The heat pump on these is a £900 extra maybe this one is also lacking the heat pump? These should be standard in colder countries?

[@sasoperme]

Why are the interior LEDs so white. Only BMW gets them right at about 4300K or so.

[@P4GrAnGeR]

Ew, never getting a BMW. 6500K or bust

[@sasoperme]

@@P4GrAnGeR ew. 6500K kills you when you turn them on at night. Not pleasant for your eyes at all.

[@Apipoulai]

8:20 Tesla is a software company that also makes cars. They still have better customer support than Google though :P

[@kerrychanning3380]

Woo hoo nice long drive :) thanks for the feedback on the seats 👍. In the UK (which goes on sale tomorrow) we can pay £3350 extra just for the higher spec seats and 20 inch rims. And, thanks to the chip shortage, the seats don't even have the memory feature! So it's an easy upgrade to skip... I'm relieved to hear the seats are still fine albeit manual only!

[@feedrate1]

watched ether ev channels and this one by far is the best 👌

[@PatricMelander]

I enjoyed this longer video, even though I watched it through three different times, but I don’t mind that 😊👍

[@StephenButlerOne]

So does the car come with some form of standard adaptive cruise control system?

[@Nelsonrgpereira]

Now all ID cars have matching color and wheels in the app, mine as a 1st even has a "licence" plate saying ID3 1st

[@sbirchsbirch6232]

Disappointed in hearing the still unimpressing cold efficiency. I just sold my ID.3 after 1 year. The cold deficit made me do it. Was a lovely ride otherwise.

[@antonioteje27]

43:30 the e-boost version with 230hp have "cupra mode" sportier than sport mode and it let the car slip more.

[@lindabrandbeauty]

Bjørn, when will you have your next live streaming? I miss them! 🤗

[@EEAMD-co6nw]

thank you for making these vidoes TB

[@bovineox1111]

I really don't care the car is white, they can patch that if they wish but every little detail takes time. It would be the least of my worries

[@ThatUnfunGuy]

About Tesla software, I just wish they had some better phone integration. To me the media playback in a Tesla is the same as a 20 year old car, with bluetooth. And to me that matters way more than a bad system, if it has android auto. So I can switch between podcast/book/music or whatever, without having to pull over.

[@MrDgt66]

Bjorn to be good.

[@juhapetteri]

Tesla is the benchmark on software, because Tesla is a software company that makes cars.

[@BobDschingisKhan]

Do you enable turning light before entering the traffic circle to show your exit? Last time in was in Italy i saw this behavior. In Germany we just enable when exit the circle.

[@bjornnyland]

[@gino.s.martens]

In the Netherlands I also learned to enable turning lights before roundabouts. However, most Dutch drivers are frugal and try to save energy by using turning lights as little as possible on roundabouts 🤦‍♂️

[@ivankuljis1780]

IT'S SO BLOODY QUIET! Can we play 'Born To Be Wild' on the soundtrack!

[@JohSno]

It was a bit long, but I ABC (alway be consistent) and stuck till the end.

[@josepablomolinacarrillo3621]

Great video as usual! High winter consumption as MEB cars heat up the battery all the time, even in 5 km journeys. It will be sorted in 2.4 and 3 software upgrades.

[@man-manuel]

The cupra born should already have a better temp control for the battery.

[@bjornnyland]

The car doesn't heat up the battery all the time.

[@Apipoulai]

Cupra Tavascan is coming soon (based on ID4)

[@LoneWolf-wp9dn]

seat and cupra dont sell any electric models in romania... this after the ecitigo sold like hotcakes over here and the spring, zoe, ecorsa also sell very well... its very sad

[@apicharjiratanan4285]

Yesss adaptive cruise control, oh Mr Bjorn I got news new gen Mercedes Benz won't have adaptive cruise control???? Shieeet!!

[@TheGokki]

Gotta love how you drive on a taxi lane but the taxi doesn't.

[@nikitakodaksleveland4056]

Could you please make a new video on which 2nd hand evs that are Worth buying or which entry ev is Worth it?

[@StephenButlerOne]

There is a few channels now talking about the second hand market in the UK. Though ul second hand market is always a lot cheaper than mainland Europe because supply out stops demand, and we can't easily sell our surplus second hand cars on the continent. So UK based used market channels just isn't relevant over the channel.uless your happy living with a right hand drive.

[@1sti]

What does the scouter say about his snark level? It's over 9000!!!! :D

[@runeelli]

What most people like to know is how fast does it charge xx% to xx%. and how long can you drive in cold weather with the heater on. and general quality.

[@garyclark6747]

“Vulgar” would be like “it’s not that long wifey and she’s says yeah yeah I know.” “Gaudy” would be like the big fat beavers Crystal every knob look. Mercedes is “outlandish” with three screens that fill up the entire car. You don’t need ambient lighting you have the screens but they filled the entire cabin with ambient lighting‼️

[@544juanito]

Hope VW is watching your video about the software 🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏is time to get a good update and make it faster etc, or better at least 🙏🙏🙏 thanks for the video 😎

[@evtrekker1317]

There is a newcommer in the segment. Renault Mégane e-Tech.

Love videos love your jokes keep on trucking

[@ChristofferLund]

Great video!

[@dwilson147]

Hi Bjørn, I'd like to see a video on what you'd recommend one do with the leads for charging phone etc, when using scan my tesla or similar apps - I don't like it loose, but I don't really have a good idea for where to tuck the cables either... Thanks for the great videos - I enjoy your content! Thanks :-D

Doesn't the body look a bit like a 90s minivan?

[@alexlo7708]

CPU in car's multimedia is far behind in the mobile phone. So one sees it lagging as normal. Exception to Tesla,perhaps.

[@HK-sd1mr]

And Renault Mégane E tech. It has a Snapdragon CPU

Name is SEAT and it's good

[@dragospahontu]

Not really

[@StephenButlerOne]

​@@dragospahontuwhat is not really. I had a 2019 Leon ST FR 2l tsi 7sp dsg, and that was a good looking and good handling car. It's only downside was the 24mpg (UK gallon) it averaged over my 21k miles I owned it. I think it was 230bhp veriant. The same as that years Octavia vRS.

[@ToreHansen]

Customer service have always sucked, only reason that Lamborghini cars excist is Ferraris owner and his agrument with Lamborghini. The clutches in Ferrari was the same shit as Lamborghinis tractors except it was extemely expensice to repairs, just as today... This one is must cooler than the VW.

ok , if WV don't change software , i buy only white cars :D

[@romuco9872]

How many of these EVs have that horrible indicator sound, or better, how many have an okay indicator sound? This one is horrible, that would be a deal breaker for me.
