CUPRA UK has opened order books for the Leon Hatch and Estate 2.0-litre TSI 190PS, as well as the Leon Estate 1.5-litre TSI 150PS powertrain.

A first for the CUPRA Leon, the 2.0-litre TSI 190PS engine blends affordability with performance, adding more choice for customers. Prices for the 190PS engine start from £33,170 OTR.

Peak power of the 190PS engine is produced between 4,200-6,000 rpm, with peak torque of 320Nm arriving between 1,500-4,100 rpm. The 190PS engine delivers 39.8-41.5mpg on the combined WLTP cycle and a top speed of 141mph (143mph for Estate). It is available exclusively with the DSG-auto gearbox and delivers a 0-62mph time of 7.2 seconds (7.5 seconds for Estate).

Meanwhile, the new entry-level 150PS engine option for the CUPRA Leon Estate is now the most affordable version of the Estate variant, with prices starting at just £30,875 OTR for the six-speed manual or £32,985 OTR for the DSG-auto.

Initially, the 150PS engine was only available for the Leon 5dr Hatch but has now been introduced to the Leon Estate to give customers even greater choice. The 150PS engine produces a maximum of 250Nm of torque, and is at its most powerful between 5,000-6,000rpm. Off the line, the 150PS engine achieves 0-62mph in 9.2 seconds (manual) and 8.9 seconds (DSG-auto), and tops out at 134mph.

The addition of two new engines to the range means that there are now five different engine options available for CUPRA Leon: 1.5 TSI 150PS, 2.0 TSI 190PS, 2.0 TSI 245PS, 2.0 TSI 300PS (310PS 4Drive on Leon Estate) and 245PS e-HYBRID plug-in hybrid. This means the Leon range now largely mirrors the range of powertrains available with Formentor.

Both the new 150PS and 190PS engine options are available exclusively with CUPRA’s entry-level V1 trim level. As standard this generously equipped trim level benefits from:

• 18” machined sport black and silver alloy wheels
• Tinted rear windows
