The Cupra Born is set for a debut in the first half of 2021, which means testing should be entering its final stages. This prototype spotted by carscoops photographers in Spain still features a full body wrap hiding the final model details until then.

I am curious about the body wrap. What is the purpose of having it be black and white? Is this to hide the car's body and detailing from the general public? I never understood why they did this with new models but I have spotted a number of them over the last 5 or so years so it must be a common practice!

Saw two yesterday. White in Lichfield near Whittington barracks and grey on M6 toll between 1700 and 1800. Getting popular.

Have seen 2 on the road since getting mine 5 weeks ago, but saw one while on holiday in Norway yesterday.
Lots of ID3s here and other EVs.

Currently on holiday in Salou (not far from barcelona) and i have seen quite a few, seem quite popular out here and rightly so.

I saw one for the first time here in Suffolk yesterday, in Aurora Blue. My daughter was disappointed because ours won't be the first in the area now, but I pointed out ours will be a 72 reg as it's being picked up on 3 September :)

Nice to see first Cupra Born in my area Sandhurst in Berkshire. Saw a Aurora Blue around 10am today. Sadly no news when my wife will get her 77kw V3.
