CUPRA Formentor & Leon 2024
CUPRA has redesigned and enhanced the CUPRA Formentor and CUPRA Leon to provoke strong emotions and continue the success story into a new era. These upgraded models were unveiled at the Design Obsession 2024 event. Wayne Griffiths describes the cars as a “pure design obsession” that strengthens “the extraordinary bond with our Tribe. Two models that represent what that small group of believers envisaged CUPRA could be just a few years ago”.
In the first quarter of 2024, CUPRA delivered 56,600 cars, an increase of 21.4% vs Q1 2023, while March was CUPRA’s all-time record month with 23,800 deliveries. “The CUPRA Formentor and Leon have both been a driving force in CUPRA’s success as it expands its footprint around the world. It’s an approach that has been incredibly successful with close to 600,000 cars delivered since the brand’s launch in 2018”.
Continuing with this success, the new CUPRA Formentor and CUPRA Leons include a new design language that reflects CUPRA’s DNA. These models incorporate the latest e-HYBRID technology, greater digitalisation and sustainability features, while enhancing driving performance.
The New CUPRA Formentor 2024: Success Story to a New Icon
The new CUPRA Formentor arrives to build on the great success the Crossover SUV has already achieved. It is our bestseller and is becoming an icon. With over 120,000 units (+23.0% vs 2022) delivered globally last year, it’s our first model uniquely designed and developed by us.
The New CUPRA Leon 2024: Feel the Attraction
The CUPRA Leon, available as both a 5-door hatchback and a Sportstourer, includes significant enhancements to the design, driving dynamics and technology – transformative impulses that challenge the status quo.
Exterior Design: Triangular LED Lights, CUPRA Logos & Colours
The new car exteriors includes the CUPRA logo on the front bonnet, the bold centre point to the shark-nosed face that defines the aggressive look with its triangular matrix LED lights and big, bold lower mouth. The same triangular lighting design acts as a framing point for the central CUPRA logo illuminated in the rear. New matt colours such as Century Bronze or Enceladus Grey gives even more character to both cars.
Interior Design: Sennheiser Speakers & Recycled Materials
The raw emotion of the exterior design is reflected inside with an interior that mixes sportiness and sustainability with a range of digital technologies and material choices.
The interiors offer a higher quality feel, with newly designed elements such as the central console. It is also enhanced with new materials, while also embracing a more sustainable approach, including Bucket seats wrapped in either 73% recycled microfibre or environmentally conscious leather. Both cars feature a new high-fidelity 12-speaker audio sound system developed in collaboration with the audio experts of Sennheiser Mobility. The system delivers the pure signature Sennheiser sound that is trusted by music creatives and artists worldwide.
Pure Power: e-HYBRID (PHEV) & Petrol Options
The range of powertrains includes TSI (petrol), mild hybrid (eTSI), TDI (diesel), and e-HYBRID (plug-in hybrid), catering to diverse preferences. The new plug-in hybrid delivers 272PS (200kW) with over 100km of all-electric range and fast charge compatibility.
Exclusive to the Formentor and Leon Sportstourer is a new petrol engine option (TSI), boasting 333PS (245kW) with torque splitter technology and Akebono brakes.
