The Cupra Leon 333 estate and Leon 300 hatchback are practical, surprisingly comfortable and quick, so we can see why you’d go for them. We’d avoid the more affordable engines and the e-Hybrid models though, because they’re fairly mediocre to drive and cost a premium over the Seat Leon.
If you want the most powerful engines and a sporty Cupra Leon, this is the trim level to go for. Along with those engines, VZ1 adds even nicer bucket seats and matrix LED headlights. This is the trim level that we’d go for.
Our favourite version of the Cupra Leon hatchback is also the most powerful one. This 296bhp engine makes the Leon feel mighty fast and really lives up to the hot hatch title.
