Uploaded 3 months ago by Electrifying

Video Summary

- This electric hot hatch has 332 horsepower and goes from 0 to 60 mph in 5.6 seconds.
- It's easy and fun to live with.
- Optional 20-inch tornado wheels mark it out as the performance-focused model.
- It has bucket seats and adaptive suspension.
- Driving with a sporty Cupra drive mode gives an extra boost of power.
- This version has 24 more miles of range with a larger battery.
- 554 newton meters of torque, even more than a Porsche 911.
- Haptic buttons are annoying and do not work well.
- There is no 12-volt socket inside, which means it would have to be placed in the boot.
- An early issue involved the infotainment system crashing, but it was fixed with a hard reset.
- Preconditioning the battery for charging via the touchscreen is handy.
- Its range and charging capabilities, and with quality and adaptive suspension, it is a car for all seasons.
- It may be that its interior does not feel as special as it should, given the cost of the car.
- For cold winter driving it has averaged around 260 miles of range, and around town over 300 miles of range.
- This review version comes in at just under £48,000.
