Seat Leon Cupra R released
The Seat Leon Cupra R is now available on sale in showrooms, with its turbocharged 2.0-litre TSI engine with 265 hp. The sports hatch is Seat’s most powerful car to date, and should certainly prove competitive in this segment.
The Leon Cupra R has a top speed of 250 km/hr and can reach 100 km/hr in 6.2 seconds. It has 350 Nm to couple with the 265 hp, and a six-speed manual gearbox. It’s fuel consumption and emissions are competitive at 8.1 l/100 km and 190 g/km respectively.
Other features include an XDS self-blocking differential, new 19-inch wheels and a sexy sports interior. It has an extensive list of optional extras including leather seats and white alloy wheels. Check out the gallery for a closer look.
Seat Leon Cupra tuned by JE Design
JE Design has tuned the Seat Leon Cupra to produce 285 hp and 385 Nm. Those figures are up from 240 hp and 300 Nm for the TSFI engine, and mean the Cupra can reach 100 km/hr in 5.9 seconds. Top speed has also increased from 247 km/hr to 261 km/hr.
The JE Design Leon Cupra has achieved a more aggressive exterior with redesigned aerodynamics, huge front air intakes on the spoiler, new side and rear skirts, and a centre diffuser insert. The rear wing completes the package.
The Leon Cupra has been lowered overall by 49 mm and fitted with new 19-inch wheels with black rims. A coilover suspension has been fitted along with twin, rear exhaust pipes. The whole kit and caboodle would get pricey though, with the wheel set alone costing 2,930 euros. See what you think in the gallery below.
