Buyers will be offered a choice between a six-speed manual gearbox and a robotic DSG with the same number of gears. The modification producing 280 horsepower and 350 Nm of torque, with automatic transmission, reaches the first “hundred” in 5.7 seconds. The 265-horsepower version with an “automatic” reaches this mark in 5.8 seconds, while the car with a manual gearbox will be a tenth of a second slower.
The hot hatch is equipped with adaptive DCC suspension, a stability control system that can be fully disabled, and a self-locking differential on the front axle. The less powerful version gets 18-inch alloy wheels, while the top 280-horsepower version gets 19-inch ones.
On the European market, the Seat Leon Cupra starts from 30.7 thousand euros, and for the 280-horsepower version with DSG you will have to pay from 34.1 thousand euros.
