Discover how to charge your hybrid & electric car when away from home, and learn how to charge with ease using CUPRA's public charging service. Use our charging map to find charging points wherever you are.
As of July 2024 there were over 64,000 public chargers across the UK**.
Public charging points due to their superior infrastructure can offer much higher charging speeds compared to the 7kw available at home. For example a 120kW public charger can charge a CUPRA Born 58kWh battery from 5% to 80% in as little as 35 minutes*.
Charging at public chargers are generally chargeable and can cost a little more than charging at home. Some public chargers are free, although charging speeds could be slower.
There are a variety of route-planning apps, such as CUPRA Charging Map and Zap Map, that show you the locations of public charging stations, so finding one when you’re out and about shouldn’t be a problem.

Lithium-ion batteries, of the type used in most electric vehicles (including CUPRA electric vehicles) have a restricted lifespan. Battery capacity will reduce over time, with use and charging. Reduction in battery capacity will affect the performance of the vehicle, including the range achievable, and may impact resale value. New car performance figures (including battery capacity and range) may be provided for the purposes of comparison between vehicles. You should not rely on new car performance figures (including battery capacity and range), in relation to used vehicles with older batteries, as they will not reflect used vehicle performance in the real world. For further information on battery degradation/preservation and the CUPRA 8 year/100,000 mile battery warranty, please click here.
Please note that some images and specifications may not reflect UK specification or may only be available as an option.
Figures shown are for comparability purposes; only compare fuel consumption and CO2 figures with other vehicles tested to the same technical procedures. Figures may not reflect real life driving results.
