5 seats and maximum weight

[mi_shu_le]

Hello,
I am not yet a Cupra Born owner, but I am in the process of becoming one. I am also new to the topic of electric cars.
One thing is driving me crazy right now.

It may sound silly, but I had no idea that electric cars are somewhat heavier than combustion engines. At least the Born seems to be extremely heavier.
Now I am trying to figure out whether it is suitable as a 5-seater, especially in the variant with the larger battery.

And now here’s the thing:
I can't seem to find out what the maximum permitted weight is.
I found information on the ADAC website. They differ slightly from the Wikipedia page, and both differ slightly from the Cupra Born PDFs that can be downloaded.
And I have a photo of an actual vehicle registration document, which has different numbers in it.
What is valid?

The vehicle registration document of a Born 77kWh registered in 06/2025 states the max weight (F1) as 2350 kg. (7593 / ASN0076) with 19-inch 215/50 tyres.
The ADAC website states 2410 kg (https://www.adac.de/rund-ums-fahrze...elle/cupra/born/1generation/335232/#allgemein)

Does anyone know what the situation is?

Moin @mi_shu_le ,

in the end, only what is stated in your registration certificate counts. The weights depend in particular on the model year, engine, battery capacity and partly on the equipment.

To what extent the secondary literature is correct I do not know, but the official specifications from Cupra with the different powertrains as distinguishing features over the past years are as follows:

Motor	Akku brutto / netto	Stand	zGG	Technisches Datenblatt vom
110 kW	55 / 45 kWh	Vor-FL	2.240 kg	11/22, 06/23
125 kW	61 / 52 kWh	FL	2.360 kg	03/26
140 kW	61 / 58 kWh	FL	2.360 kg	03/26
150 kW	62 / 58 kWh	Vor-FL	2.280 kg	08/21
150 kW	62 / 58 kWh	Vor-FL	2.260 kg	11/22, 06/23
150 kW	63 / 59 kWh	Vor-FL	2.260 kg	11/24
150 kW	63 / 59 kWh	Vor-FL	2.290 kg	07/25
150 kW	82 / 77 kWh	Vor-FL	Daten zum Zeitpunkt der Drucklegung nicht verfügbar.	11/24
150 kW	84 / 79 kWh	Vor-FL	2.420 kg	07/25
150 kW	84 / 79 kWh	FL	2.420 kg	03/26
170 kW	62 / 58 kWh	Vor-FL	2.260 kg	11/22, 06/23
170 kW	63 / 59 kWh	Vor-FL	2.290 kg	11/24, 07/25
170 kW	82 / 77 kWh	Vor-FL	2.300 kg	11/22, 06/23
170 kW	82 / 77 kWh	Vor-FL	2.350 kg	11/24
170 kW	84 / 79 kWh	Vor-FL	2.310–2.420 kg	07/25
170 kW	84 / 79 kWh	FL	2.420 kg	03/26
240 kW	84 / 79 kWh	Vor-FL	2.430 kg	11/24, 07/25
240 kW	84 / 79 kWh	FL	2.430 kg	03/26

Optional extras like 20-inch wheels, panoramic roof, heat pump, etc. add a significant amount of weight, quickly 40-50 kilos that you can carry less of.
The curb weights of the Born range between 1,811 and 1,999 kg:

As a rough overview:

Leergewicht	Variante
1.811 kg	150 kW / 58 kWh
1.824 kg	170 kW / 58 kWh
1.841 kg	170 kW / 60 kWh
1.842 kg	150 kW / 60 kWh
1.946 kg	170 kW / 77 kWh
1.977 kg	170 kW / 79 kWh
1.999 kg	240 kW / 79 kWh (VZ)

You can forget the Wikipedia page about the Born; it is at least incomplete.

Wow, vielen Dank für die super detaillierte Antwort!! Die Zeile mit 77kwh und 2350 hatte ich bisjetzt nirgends in die Literatur gefunden, aber jetzt erklärt sich was ich im Fahrzeugschein gesehen habe.

Bei der hier - das ist wahrscheinlich 7593/ASY
>>>

170 kW

84 / 79 kWh

Vor-FL

2.310–2.420 kg

07/25

Kann ich mit der Varianz da nichts anfangen- zwischen 2310 und 2420 sind immerhin 110 kg!
Welche Ausstattungsvariante hat 2420? Oder ist es nicht die Austattung sondern was anderes??

Vielleicht hat jemand aus dem Forum ein 7593/ASY und kann im Fahrzeugschein schauen?
