2022 Cupra Born V2 EV Electric · V28 TDB

The Cupra Born demonstrates a clean and stable roadworthiness status, supported by a fault-free test in its history. In the June 2025 MOT test at 11,421 miles, the vehicle passed with zero advisories or defects recorded, reflecting a healthy structural and mechanical baseline. Because the official record consists of this single test, no historical pattern of recurring faults exists to indicate worsening mechanical trends. Accumulating approximately 2,855 miles per year over its four-year age profile, the vehicle shows low overall usage compared to typical fleet or commuter standards. This light mileage footprint points toward gentle urban operation or extended periods spent parked, rather than heavy motorway accumulation. The sparsity of the test record is a direct consequence of this low mileage and the young age of the EV, meaning most major consumable assemblies have not yet been severely tested by high-mileage fatigue. Physical inspection should focus on components vulnerable to low-usage conditions rather than high-mileage wear. The friction braking system requires close scrutiny, as electric vehicles relying heavily on regenerative braking can develop surface corrosion on the brake discs or binding calipers from infrequent physical use. Suspension bushes, coil springs, and high-voltage cabling should also be examined on a ramp to check for any premature environmental degradation or weathering underneath the chassis.
