Recent Changes
- The 2009 Frankfurt Motor Show will play host to the unveiling of the 2010 Leon CUPRA R. The FWD hot hatch will sport VW's 2.0 liter direct-injected TSI Inline-4 which now develops 265 hp while fully complying with strict EU5 emissions standards. The power gain translates to a 0 to 100km/h (62mph) sprint of 6.1 seconds all the way to a top speed of 250 km/h (155mph) and a standing kilometer of 25.7 seconds. Still, the new mill returns 8.1 lt / 100km or 29mpg US / 34.9mpg UK. [1]
- For MY2010, the SEAT Leon receives a minor facelift, an improvement of the current engines and a host of upgraded interior goodies. [2]
- For 2009, SEAT has unveiled another special edition variant of the Leon dubbed, Seat Leon Cupra K1 Limited Edition. [5]
- For 2008, SEAT has added a special edition variant of the Leon, dubbed Seat Leon FR1 Series Limited. [6]
- For 2008, SEAT will add a new "green" model in the Leon range dubbed the León ECOMOTIVE. The car is powered by a 1.9 TDI engine with a DPF particulate filter that returns 119 g/km in CO2 emissions and pumps out 105 bhp/ 78kW and 250Nm with a claimed range of 1,500km. Further niceties that come along with the car include a clever control unit to constantly check the state of the filter, and should it find things out of order, it will activate regeneration to burn the stubborn soot, thus eliminating the need to change the particulate filter during the car’s lifetime and, because of European law incentives on environmentally friendly cars such as this, the car is entitled to forgo registration tax.
