Martorell, 23/01/2017 – The same thing always happens when SEAT present a new model to the press. The first question is usually the same one; “Will there be a CUPRA version?” Nowadays the CUP RACER acronym has become much more than just a version in the SEAT range; the CUPRAS are much sought after models, the ultimate expression of its sports heritage combined technology, functionality and reliability. A CUPRA, in other words, is the best example of the perfect balance between emotion and reason.
The Leon CUPRA has always stood out for its performance and its equipment, without forgetting its design and its excellent price/quality ratio. All of this has now been taken a step further. Although the CUPRA is already a successful model, we have managed to improved even further.
A complete success
As demonstrated by the sales of 9.000 units around the world in 2016 (of which 8.300 were in the European market) the success of the SEAT Leon CUPRA is undeniable. These figures put the sportiest model of the brand in the top 5 of its market segment in Europe.
In this sports car, you will find power, an amazing driving experience and the most advanced technology. This is how the driving experience of the Leon CUPRA is defined, while users of the rest of the Leon range prefer terms such as safe, reliable, elegant and functional. Now, thanks to the inclusion of the most advanced technology in safety, connectivity and multimedia, the new Leon CUPRA can offer everything without compromising intensity. The Leon CUPRA offers versatility thanks to its availability in three different body types; the 5-door version, the SC and the family ST version. The 5-door offers the possibility to add a more intense drive to your day to day life, the SC represents design and performance in its purest form and the ST combines versatility and dynamism to perfection.
