Seat will present the León Cupra 4 at the Paris Motor Show

Besides the new Arosa range, Seat will present the new León Cupra 4 at the upcoming Paris Motor Show on September 28. Equipped with a 204 hp (150 kW) 2.8 V6 24V engine and total traction, the León Cupra 4 is the sportiest series production vehicle in the Seat range.

Seat will also be presenting another outstanding new version in Paris; the 150 hp (110 kW) 1.9 TDi, the most powerful Diesel engine in the history of Seat, which will be available on the León and Toledo models.

The first Cupra with 4 total traction 

Able to accelerate from 0 to 100 km/h in only 7.3 seconds, and with a top cruising speed of 235 km/h, the León Cupra 4 is the fastest car launched by Seat in its fifty year history.

The new León Cupra 4 joins the corresponding versions of the Ibiza and Córdoba models, making up the sportiest trio of the Spanish maker. But with more power, thanks to its 204 hp 2.8 V6 24V engine, and four wheel traction, the Seat León is a step ahead within the Cupra range.

150 hp 1.9 TDi, the most powerful Diesel engine

The León and Toledo models will be equipped with Seat's most powerful Diesel engine, the 150 hp (110 kW) 1.9 TDi with fuel injector units. With this engine, both models increase their maximum horse-power rating by 40 and deliver enviable performance: from 0 to 100 km/h in under 9 seconds and maximum speed of 215 km/h.

Thanks to this new engine, identifiable by its red TDi badge, the Toledo will offer a six speed gearbox for the first time. Furthermore, this engine will be available with total traction 4 in the future.

Other powerful new versions

The Seat Toledo is now equipped with a 170 hp (125 kW) 2.3 V5 20V engine, with 20 horse power more than the previous V5. Along with the León, this model also features the 105 hp (77 kW) 1.6 16V, which replaces the 100 hp  (74 kW) 1.6.

Besides the aforementioned 105 hp (77 kW) 1.6 16V, the León also features the 125 hp (92 kW) 1.8 20V with automatic gearbox, which replaces the 100 hp (74 kW) 1.6 automatic.

The Ibiza and Córdoba ranges replace the 75 hp (55 kW) 1.6, which will no longer be produced, with the 1.4 16V of equal performance, an engine which has already been marketed in certain export markets.

The new Alhambra now features total traction 4 in its petrol range equipped with the 204 hp (150 kW) 2.8 V6 24V engine, and the 115 hp (85 kW) Diesel.
