This is the all-electric Cupra Born hatchback with a single-speed (automatic) drive unit and regenerative braking — no gearbox service, but watch tyre and brake-pad wear. Charging capability depends on the battery fitted: AC charging is typically 7–11 kW and DC fast-charge speeds vary by pack (higher-capacity batteries accept faster rapid charging). Cupra is a sportier SEAT sibling, so the ride is a touch firmer than mainstream city EVs; battery warranty and any included public-charging offers are key items to confirm at delivery.

• Charging port and cables: test the CCS rapid-charge socket and any AC Mode‑3 cable/adapters that should be supplied to ensure the car fast-charges and accepts public chargers.
• Battery condition / initial charge logs: ask for battery state-of-health or charging session history and verify advertised range on a full charge, especially if the car was pre-registered or used for demos.
• ADAS and software: confirm the infotainment and driver‑assist systems have the latest updates and check adaptive cruise, lane-keep and parking camera/sensors operate correctly.
• Tyres and brakes: check tyre specification and DOT date for age, and ensure even tyre wear; look for any dragging brakes or uneven brake performance which can indicate parking-brake caliper issues on low-mileage EVs.
