CUPRA Australia’s Leon Specification/Engine Details HERE


The Leon goes on sale in July in four models: Leon VLeon VZLeon VZe and VZx.

Eventually, the CUPRA range will consist of: Leon, Ateca SUV, Born, and Formentor crossover.

Prices will be revealed within months, but CUPRA Australia’s Head of Product and Planning,  Jeff Shafer, said: “There is no entry level variant as such.”

“Yes,there is an ascending order in terms of output, but we’ve equipped all Leons with such a level of standard equipment that no-one will feel short changed in any version.

“With outputs ranging from 140kW/320Nm to 221kW/400Nm, each Leon has the power and torque to match its design, a combination that in only four years has seen CUPRA become a byword for performance and style.”
