Re: Battery Degradation - 58kwh

The blogger Bjorn Nyland has a spreadsheet for various EV related things His info for the comparable ID3 with 58kWh usable is just over 6% degradation in 2 years/48 thousand kilometres - doesn't say if the car had been DC fastcharged a lot https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1HOwktdiZmm40atGPwymz...

Re: Tyre size 235/45-r19

Pretty sure they won't fit well - the 20" Firestorm wheels are the widest fitted to a Born, and they are 235/40R20 tyre size, on a 7.5" wide wheel with offset of 50

Re: can new Cupra Born have recalls?

It shouldn't have any outstanding recalls at the point of delivery, but of course, a recall or update could happen the day after you take delivery I got mine from Tusker as a salary sacrifice and they/the supplying dealership gave me the VIN at my request - I wanted to make sure it was a 2024 model ...

Re: 10,000 Miles with the Cupra Born

There is one small update to your version (some tweaks to wi-fi handling) to your version, which (at present) is only carried out at the dealer rather than Over-The-Air, and would increase it to 1741 if what I've read some...
