The Cupra Leon hatch and Sportstourer feature the same interior design, fit and finish. The interior is stylish with a thoughtful, practical layout. The seats are comfortable and there’s cupholders, sizeable door pockets, a lidded centre console box and a wireless smartphone charging pad.
The Cupra Leon range is available in four standard colours - Glacial White, Magnetic Tech (grey), Fiord Blue and Mightnight Black. There are three premium paints which are a $620 option - Taiga Grey, Graphene Grey and Dark Void. And three matt paints for $2650 - Century Bronze, Magnetic Tech and Enceladus Grey.
Cupra is a performance brand so has claimed 0-100km/h time for all Leon variants. The Leon S takes 8.7 seconds, the Leon Sportstourer VZe 7.3 seconds and the Leon VZx is the quickest at 5.7 seconds.
The three Cupra Leon models all feature a different powertrain, as each is targeting a distinctly different buyer.
The Leon S is powered by a 110kW/250Nm 1.5-litre turbocharged petrol engine with mild-hybrid assistance.
The Leon VZx has 2.0-litre four-cylinder turbo-petrol engine that makes 221kW/400Nm.
The Leon VZe Sportstourer is a plug-in hybrid, powered by a 1.5-litre turbo petrol engine paired to an electric motor to make 200kW and 400Nm.
