ONE OF THE QUESTIONS everyone has been asking about the newest arrival on the Australian market is just where it will set its pricing.
Well, the waiting is over. Cupra has announced that the Leon hatchback will start from $43,990 (plus on road costs), the Formentor crossover from $50,690 (plus on road costs) and the Ateca SUV from $60,990 (plus on road costs) – complemented by attractive driveaway pricing inclusive of a three-year servicing offer.
The complete Cupra range is highly specified with minimal options, offered with both RRP and sharp driveaway pricing, driver-focused and espousing the edgy design aesthetic and high performance brand virtues that radiate with Australian customers.
With orders set to commence from early June, 2022, Cupra Australia’s Head of Product and Planning, Jeff Shafer, confirmed: “The desirability of our three-model, highly specified Cupra range is now matched by driveaway pricing that offers great value plus a complimentary three-year servicing offer and a five-year, unlimited kilometre warranty.”
“From $43,990 plus on-road costs through to a maximum $66,990 driveaway, our trio of Leon hatchback, Formentor crossover and Ateca SUV offer exactly what modern Australians are looking for – all sharing key performance, technology and design DNA.”
Cupra will usher in progressive technologies, including two plug-in hybrid electric vehicles – Leon VZe and Formentor VZe – that combine athleticism with efficiency.
The Leon spans V (pre-orders from Q3 2022), VZ, VZe and VZx specification, including 2.0-litre turbo 140kW/320Nm, 180kW/370Nm, 180kW/400Nm (including electric motor) and 221kW/400Nm outputs respectively.
The Formentor will be the top-selling Cupra in Australia, mirroring the grade names of the Leon with the addition of 4Drive all-wheel drive on the V and VZx, a high-performance 228kW flagship output and the additional flexibility of a spacious crossover bodystyle.
The Ateca is exclusively available as VZx with 221kW/400Nm, standard 4Drive all-wheel drive and 4.9-second 0-100km/h performance, as an ideal flagship SUV for performance focused Australian customers.
Depending on the variant, Cupra offers design and high performance personalisation options including Matte Paint (Leon and Formentor VZx), Brembo Brakes (all VZx variants) and Akropovic Exhaust (Ateca VZx).
All Cupras include a five-year, unlimited kilometre warranty.
