The Cupra León continues to promote its sporting qualities with the arrival of the new VZ CUP finish. This new version is a tribute to the competition CUP models, and adds a new dimension to the Spanish compact, both with a 5-door body and the Sportstourer estate . This finish increases the dynamic behavior of the Cupra León with the addition of semi-slick Bridgestone Potenza Race tyres, (available as standard on the TSI petrol versions), and the Brembo braking system. Likewise, its design also provides an even more sporty and emotional character with the integration of different elements. New Matrix LED headlights as standard, increase effectiveness at night. Its exterior design is more radical by integrating 48 cm (19-inch) wheels in black and Copper tones, Cupra side skirts, or the carbon fiber rear spoiler (for the 5-door version) as standard. The cabin is now more emotional thanks to the great presence of the new CUPBucket sports seats with a truly sporty look, the steering wheel with satellite buttons, Copper stitching all over the dashboard, and the opening panoramic roof.
The León VZ CUP is available with different mechanical options and in both body types, including the 245 hp 1.4 e-HYBRID plug-in hybrid version, the 300 hp 2.0 TSI petrol engine, and the 310 hp 2.0 TSI DSG 4Drive (available on the Sportstourer), reflecting the spirit and performance character of the brand. The Cupra León already offered a unique driving experience thanks to its highly advanced engines, its technology applied to the chassis and the sophistication of its exterior and interior design. All this, together with a digitized and connected user experience, and the latest driving assistance systems, make the Spanish sports compact one of the most attractive vehicles in its segment.
Likewise, since last June, all the e-Hybrid versions of the Cupra León saw their performance increase with the introduction of improvements that affect the chassis section in the two plug-in hybrid variants (204 and 245 hp): the León chassis e-Hybrid reduces its ground clearance by 25 millimeters, which improves the center of gravity and its aerodynamics; and allows the optional incorporation of the Brembo brake system. Now, in addition, customers of the e-Hybrid versions of the Cupra León will be able to opt for the VZ CUP finish, further increasing the sportiness, exclusivity and emotion of driving a Cupra .
