Description

This 2016 SEAT Leon Cupra delivers a focused and rewarding driving experience, blending sharp handling with abundant mid-range shove from its 2.0 TSI engine. The chassis feels composed whether commuting or pushing through twisty roads, and the Cupra drive profiles let you tailor throttle and damping responses for a more engaging ride.

Practicality is strong for a hot hatch: five seats, useful boot space and helpful parking sensors make daily life easier, while the Alcantara-trimmed cabin, dual-zone climate control and sat nav create a comfortable, sporty environment for longer journeys.
